    Recommendation For Brake Kit 2016 LR4

    Not sure about the squeal factor, but given the weight of these trucks and towing I would be tempted to go for either the EBC or PowerStop Truck and Tow rated pads and a quality rotor. On an F150 I had years ago the best upgrade I ever did was Powerstop rotors and a police rated Raybestos...

    Boat decking EVA foam on RTT floor?

    After putting it off for years I am finally going to commit to an Expad megamat. When I pull the factory pad out I don't want to be left with a bare plastic floor (ARB Simpson III). I was thinking something like this: EVA Foam Would help improve feel to the touch, easy to clean, keep things...

    1991 - Land Rover 110 - Perentie RFSV - Portland, Oregon

    The time has come for me to pass my Perentie along to the next caretaker. I've throughly enjoyed this truck and it pains me to sell. However, as kids get older weekends are more occupied with sports and travel and I don't have the time to wheel and wrench like I would like to justify keeping it...

    L322 Project: Bacon Slayer

    I've had the same problem with the diff breather on my L322. There were some discrepancies noted by my very trusted indy mechanic in Topix on fill capacity. One piece of guidance said fill to spill, the other had a set amount. I had oil coming out the diff breather even after filling to the...

    LR3 tires

    Get the AT Trail then. They are nice and quiet on the Range Rover.

    LR3 tires

    I have the Falken AT/3 on my LR3 and the AT Trail on my L322 Range Rover. High marks for both, you decide how much offroad bias you want.

    L405 TD6….towing experience?

    For an F150 I towed with, I went with a ceramic brake pad that is normally spec'd for police use. They did squeak a little bit going out of the neighborhood on a cold morning, but the bite, lack of dust, and fade resistance when pushing them hard or towing were impressive. It was absolutely...

    Safari RRC

    Thanks for posting. Great looking truck. The modified ARB is interesting. I've never seen anyone do that, but a good idea for something different as there are always cheap RRC and Disco ARB's popping up in the US.

    L322 Spare Parts and Field Tool Kit

    You will need a way to plug the other side of the exhaust for an x-jack to work on an LR3. We had an LR3 shred a sidewall in a rock garden on a club run and they couldn't get the xjack to inflate with the second muffler exhausting to the atmosphere.

    2020 Land Rover Defender is a Nightmare

    Setting the hyperbole aside. One module failed during a period when every auto manufacturer on the planet is facing chip shortages and other supply chain snarls. Should JLR ensure you have something to drive, adjust your lease, and make you whole for the time the truck was down? Yes...
