2000 Lexus LX470

Location: Salt Lake City, UT

Why It’s Curated: This Lexus LX470 is for sale in Salt Lake City, UT. We like the 100 series Land Cruisers because they are the first with front independant suspension and have a V8.  The LX ads some luxury on top of the capability. Of course the adjustable factory suspension has been replaced with a Slinky/Icon Stage 4 long travel suspension and a 2″ lift. There’s also: wheels, tires, winch, roof rack, custom rock sliders, swing out tire carrier plus a lot more. See more details below the image gallery. This LX is ready to take you literally anywhere in the world you want to go.  Please let us know if you have any questions about this truck.

Condition:
Everything works and nothings leaks
Interior is in very good condition
It has heated leather seats that work well
The exterior is in nice shape; not perfect, but cleans up well and no major dents or paint flaking
The AHC has been deleted and replaced with the best riding, best articulating, longest travel suspension that bolts on. It has the Slinky Stage 4 kit with Icon Stage 4 remote reservoir shocks with 10 clicks of adjustability. This allows it to go from a ride that is nicer than a stock Lexus to a firm controlled ride even when fully loaded. They are extended length to handle the 2” inches of lift and increased rear droop available from the long travel Slinky springs. This required longer rear brake lines due to the extra travel and front upper control arms. This, combined with the independent front suspension, results in an overland capable trail rig that will still safely go whatever speed you want on the freeway and even tow 6,000 lbs, if needed.
The extra travel and the high clearance bumpers give this truck the articulation and approach/departure angles to make it a very capable trail and rock rig.
