    Lift rods vs GAP?

    Have the rods in my RRS. When used with the RSW tool, it's a pretty cheap but effective package. Incredibly easy to install.

    Relocate Defender to America

    I'm no expert, but I do not think that this is good advice. Customs does not appreciate this tactic.

    Wife wants to know...

    My wife loves her white RRS HSE LUX. And I think all women do. Show her the Sport and you'll have no chance of going back to the full size.

    Can it be done, (THE BUILD) a little back country trip to the USA

    Your comment makes it sound like I go out looking for bears to shoot. I simply said that bringing both is a good idea. I do it and fortunately have needed neither.

    LR2's

    Maybe I'm way off base, but I would compare the LR2 more to a Subaru Outback than an LR3/4. Not a bad thing, just not the same ballpark. I own a Legacy and a RRS, and have owned 2 Outbacks and a Disco 2. There are many places off road that I wouldn't think about taking the Subies that the RRS...

    YES/NO on this one???

    Last comment I will make about this truck. Does he really think he can sell a 12 year old LR transmission with 150,000 for $1,250? A salvaged D2 with 150k and a blown head/pump is really only worth what the body and tires could recoup. The rest of the parts are inconsequential.

    YES/NO on this one???

    It also says it has a salvage title. I don't think a blown head gasket gets you a salvaged title. Check accident and/or katrina/flood history.

    YES/NO on this one???

    Nah...you can get a running '02 for just a few grand more. And if you're going to build up a Disco, may as well start with an '04. I got mine for $6k and sold it after adding toys for $9k - both on the high end of '04 D2 pricing. Save some money and buy an '04 with as close to 100k (or less!) as...

    Can it be done, (THE BUILD) a little back country trip to the USA

    Completely depends on where you will be and when. I am always over 6200' and never need A/C....but the second I drop into the high desert (ironically a bit higher elevation that where I live), it's sweltering in August. You will appreciate the A/C on nearly every mile of interstate in the...

    Can it be done, (THE BUILD) a little back country trip to the USA

    Up here (near Yellowstone) you shouldn't have to worry about humans THAT much (every year there is one small run of wallets being stolen from cars near trailheads, but it tends to be a bored 16yo). Bears are a concern...but I keep my fridge inside my RRS with no issues (yet) and did the same...

    Expedition Portal Project: 2008 Range Rover Sport

    Suspension Fault Ironic that after almost posting about the reliable suspension a few weeks ago, I am now getting a "SUSPENSION FAULT" on my '06 with 93k. :oops:

    Can it be done, (THE BUILD) a little back country trip to the USA

    If you want to wind up in Jackson Hole, Wyoming (best of the west by far), then you have a buyer right here.

    Don't flame... BUT is the Wrangler the new Defender for the U.S. ???

    A new, stock LR4 or RR can do anything off-road that any stock 4x4 ever built can do. The one possible exception is rock crawling vs a stock Rubicon. I would say that you're entire statement is hyperbolic at best, trolling at worst. Now, too expensive? Absolutely. LR has priced their new...
