    OKADVENTURES GX470 Build

    I got the USR GX470 Black Headlights installed and I think they turned out awesome. I also vinyl wrapped my fog lights yellow while doing this project. I am loving how these two updates rounded out the blacked out look to go with my USR taillights. Headlights: 2003-2009 Lexus GX470 Sport...

    Yes I trimmed that bracket a bit but now I can use my tool kit like normal pretty much. Learn from my mistake! If I would have just paid attention and mounted the table an inch or so higher there would have been no issues at all.

    This isn’t directly GX/Overland related but it will live in my GX so I feel it is relevant! I recently partnered with Refuge Medical to make a video going over their Adventure Kit 2.0. This is an extremely thorough emergency medical kit to keep in your vehicle, whether you are just commuting...

    I did a quick and easy interior mod today: Ellis Precision Shift Knob Set. Check out my video on the install of it! Lexus GX470 Shift Knob Set - Automatic Transmission – Ellis Precision

    From the OKMO Website: "Can I use it while its charging? Yes, you can do pass through charging when using AC outputs, but don't forget though this will stress the battery out lowering its life cycle. " My common sense advice would probably be to not max out the output while also recharging, but...

    Check out this video I did of the OKMO G1000 Power Station. They are having a sale right now if you have been needing to upgrade the power supply for your overlanding setup. So far, I have been really impressed with this unit but I will be continuing to test it out and share my experience with...

    The bottom bulbs are designed to be reverse lights, but due to the reverse lights being in the rear door of the GX, these bulbs aren't wired up to anything as they come. I hope to get them wired up to be reverse lights in a future project.

    I installed the Roadshock Ditch Lights (Flood version) from Harbor Freight recently and was really surprised with how good the light output was from these budget friendly pods. I used the JW Offroad ditch light brackets to mount them and the brackets are rock solid. If you are looking to step up...

    Not exactly GX related, but it is overlanding related! I recently got in the Camp Chef Rainier 2X from Overlanded.com to test out, and review for the channel. It is a really cool camp stove that gives you a stove and a griddle all in one. Overlanded gave me a discount code to share with all my...

    I installed the Desert Does It front seat jackers and multi mount panel in my GX470 and I was amazed with how much it improved the comfort of this truck. I thought these may primarily benefit taller people (which I am sure they do), but even being average height, I noticed a drastic improvement...

    I got in on the second round of Garage Alpha TRD Grill’s for the GX470 and made a video going over how to get it installed. I love how this updates the front end of the GX. Let me know what you think!

    I got the Auxbeam Switch Panel installed in the GX and wanted to show you guys the high-level install. Future videos will go into how I am wiring lights up to this, but that is pretty straight forward. Auxbeam on Amazon

    Got out in the snow for a little bit today. Happens about once a year here in OK so had to test out the rig in it.

    A few weeks ago, I picked up the Malone Profile 18B Cargo Box for those times where we run out of cargo space in the GX or my wife’s Ford Explorer. Check out my video going over the features of this box and how to install. Overall, I am really happy with the functionality of this box and was...

    I got the Unique Style Racing Tail Lights for the GX470 installed. I think they turned out awesome and massively improved the look of the rig. They function great, but obviously this is primarily a cosmetic upgrade, but one that I think is definitely worth it if you want that blacked out look...
