Was excited to grab a low mileage 63 in Magno to go with the C63.... working to get it dechromed and some light mods done lifting it 2" plus 305's and some spacers and Fox shocks...
it had 17k on it.... not sure on the story but it was very lightly driven and would suspect an older owner.
just got some 305's on the factory rims while I wait for the Forgestar's to be built..... much better ride and the Toyo's are quieter than I recall them being on my LC200 series. Have Fox shocks and 40mm coil spacers and some 31mm H & R's ready to go on next week.... too dang hot here to try to wrench so taking to the shop that's built my Landcruisers in the past...
excited to get that completed and then dechrome it and get her over to EC atx for a tune...
Off subject slightly..... Some are using wheel spacers between 31mm to 40mm spacers, which is the ideal size spacer to use?
If just using spacers will that allow slightly wider tires installation without rubbing and having to install new shocks ?
Took the G63 cross country to WA to pick up a new puppy and came back via Bend, Telluride and Moab plus Taos...... the new Toyo's ran great ! getting the 40mm spacers and Foxes installed today and going to upgrade to 35's on some new Forgestars built to eleminate the need for the 31mm H & R spacers.... so will have those in the classifieds shortly...
Installed the Fox's and 40mm spring spacers along with new Forgestar rims - 20x10.5's and 35" Toyo AT2's ..... very happy, other than needing to figure out the center caps. The shocks are a HUGE improvement.... got full approval from the wife that it was worth it after she drove it....
this is the way the trucks should come.....albeit maybe with just 33's for most folks.

hoping to get a tune on it and call it good....
Love your 4x4 taste and the fleet and congrats on the g63!
Thanks guys - it a diverse group of rigs ! the HJ45 is a diesel with a whopping 120 hp..... but the C63 is 520 RWHP.... and hoping to top that with the tuning of the G....thing that'll be DP's, exhaust and set of AFE filters and a tune....
I'm mounting up the 911 bracket today and using a 275/65/20 spare that almost matches the OD of the 35's.... it saves 16lbs over the 35" combo and is only 6lbs more than more than the stock spare..
Fester - really liking the red color...... never would've thought I would but it really works. Congrats.... what's next for your rig ?
