Autel recommended this kit: https://www.auteldealer.com/products/autel-maxitpms-ts508wf-kit-rubber-version I checked the instructions online and it appears that the scanner has the functions necessary. There's no specific mention of the Grenadier. There is a menu of vehicles in the scanner...

The support person at Autel completely misunderstood my request... I responded: Their response: Hopefully the "TPMS technical team" will understand my fairly simple needs and will respond with the products needed. Stay tuned for updates as I get more information.

I talked with the service manager at my dealer about the TPMS system and he confirmed: 1. The system can store 5 sensor ID's, which includes the spare. 2. If you swap on the spare and then choose reset from the TPMS settings page, the system will recognize that the spare has been put on the...

Not exactly a Land Rover idea for Jeeps... it's a Grenadier idea for a Jeep... this hardtop has existed in the Jeep world for about five years, first brought to market by Smittybilt, it never sold well so apparently they sold the mold to this company. It came with plastic (not sure if plexiglass...

I came across this today and had to post it - it's a Grenadier idea for a Jeep... this hardtop has existed in the Jeep world for about five years, first brought to market by Smittybilt, it never sold well so apparently they sold the mold to this company. It came with plastic (not sure if...

I've gone through most of the ideas in my Land Rover magazine collection that might apply to Grenadiers and after posting about 300 ideas I think I'll stop now. I welcome anyone who has other ideas from Land Rovers that might apply to Grenadiers to post them here and if I come across any other...

For years I've had second spares for my Wranglers. I often carry them on expeditions in the event something fatal or not easily repairable happens to one of the tires on the vehicle. I don't want to be without a spare when I'm miles from the nearest road and even further from the nearest...

As long as I'm on the subject of spare covers with pockets... I do like the pocket idea and a few years ago (long before I had seen any of the ones above) I designed a spare cover with a pocket; the pocket fits things like a recovery strap nicely: They're easy to sew, so I made 4 different...

This photo was an of Land Rover Owner: I noticed the spare cover has a pocket on it so I looked it up: https://escapegear.com/product/spare-wheel-cover/. It's not expensive - $41-$74 USD, although I'm sure it's not worth the shipping cost from South Africa even if they would ship it here...

More inspiration from products I came across in the Land Rover magazines... I like the idea of the organizers that hang from someplace on the vehicle or perhaps on a tree. I also liked the work surface/table that was part of the "Canvas Kitchen" in the earlier post although I don't like the...

First Overland I've posted a bit before about the "First Overland" trip in two Land Rovers from London to Singapore. Here's a post from earlier in this thread: https://forum.expeditionportal.com/threads/land-rover-ideas-for-grenadiers.248833/post-3228370 A few videos about the First Overland...

Based on inspiration from the ideas in the previous post, here are some of the things I've sewed for my Jeeps and Grenadier... I like one that provides a little more organization for the medical supplies. I've got this one in my Grenadier: Many people have mounted tables on their rear...

I've gotten a lot of inspiration from some of the "soft goods" for camping and overlanding shown in Land Rover magazines. Here are some examples: A "pockety-hangy-downy thing"? Is that Brit for hanging organizer? "Bivvi Organizer" is short for Bivouac Organizer BTW. What's different about...

A few weeks ago I did several posts about cargo nets from Rock n Road (starting at: https://forum.expeditionportal.com/threads/land-rover-ideas-for-grenadiers.248833/post-3234800), ones for roof racks, bonnets (hood in U.S. English) and other locations on Land Rovers. In an issue of Land Rover...

Poor man's trail cam system? This item was in the April issue of Land Rover Monthly: That item can be found on eBay: Cameras aren't very expensive, here's a license plate cam from eBay: If one wanted to have multiple cameras, for example one with watches each front tire (see the videos...
