Re: My LX470 Luxury Land Cruiser Awesome pics. Really jealous of your terrain. Pretty ballsy dipping it hood deep with no snorkel. Broke any front cv's yet? |
Re: My LX470 Luxury Land Cruiser It's a Land Cruiser! Designed to wade water that high. The airbox was totally dry afterwards. CVs holding strong. I carry a spare with me on the harder trails, though. |
Re: My LX470 Luxury Land Cruiser Nice videos! Obstacle avoidance by the camera drone looked quite good also. |
Re: My LX470 Luxury Land Cruiser Thanks! The drone is a Skydio 2, it's the best! Really makes it easy to just focus on driving. I launch and land through my sunroof! |

Re: My LX470 Luxury Land Cruiser Since I got this truck and started hanging out with Land Cruiser people, things have escalated rapidly: https://i.imgur.com/uKjGUkLh.jpg https://i.imgur.com/C1KSI1Lh.jpg https://i.imgur.com/8ZqIzFMh.jpg https://i.imgur.com/GScq5MKh.jpg https://i.imgur.com/NNKYS6Zh.jpg |
Re: My LX470 Luxury Land Cruiser Nice set up. I currently drive a 2001 lx470. Nothing crazy. AHC gone. ARB heavys with an ARB front bumper and warn 12 winch. Pretty basic but also pretty awesome vehicle. Previous was a 1992 fj80. Small lift 33s and arb front and rear bumpers. Winch and a few other things. Roof rack. Loved it but I wanted newer and nicer. And we'll I hate I sold it. Had a 1995 with factory lockers and loved it. Land cruiser people are like jeep people (I used to be a Jeep only guy). Always nice to see others actually using their cruisers. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...a6f36e7505.jpg Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk |
Re: My LX470 Luxury Land Cruiser Sweet LX! Yeah a couple of my friends sold their 80s to get newer 4Runners or 100s or whatever and every single one of them regrets it. |
Re: My LX470 Luxury Land Cruiser Hey man, thanks for posting these pics. I'm sure there's bazillions of examples of 1/1 trail rigs on other (1/1) sites but I'm not on any of those sites, so it's nice to have them here. This gives a lot of detail ideas of real life accessories to add to models--good stuff. Guess I better look at getting myself an offroad 'station wagon/grocery getter'...that C54 body kit is beckoning ;-) 8) |
Re: My LX470 Luxury Land Cruiser Very inspirational... This is exactly the sort of thing I want to do with whatever I end up getting for trails like you are doing here. No crazy rock crawling, just nice peaceful overland type stuff. I dig it man. Thanks for sharing. |
Re: My LX470 Luxury Land Cruiser Thanks guys. I agree it's awesome to have 1:1s for ideas to use on RCs. And vice versa! I agree Shinchu, this truck is great for this type of thing. So comfortable for long range travel but also incredibly capable. I am always surprised at the obstacles I can get through with this truck. I'll be going back to Moab in April and I've got some more trips planned for this year. |
Re: My LX470 Luxury Land Cruiser Nice rig you have there! What rims are those? |
Re: My LX470 Luxury Land Cruiser Thanks! They are these XD 18" wheel. I like them a lot! https://amzn.to/3lQ7SUe Ridge Grappler 275/70/18 tires: https://amzn.to/3rlwqFR https://i.imgur.com/QcCivOMh.jpg https://i.imgur.com/SioXvFih.jpg |
Re: My LX470 Luxury Land Cruiser Thanks for letting me know. Nice choice of wheels and tires, by the way. I am considering getting a set of Nitto Ridge Grappler tires for my truck too. |
