    LR3 / Discovery 3 Coil Conversion +2" Question

    Updated in my build thread, but for the sake of future searches and such-I went ahead and ordered HD rear springs from AB; my truck will have the OME MD's up front and the HD's in the back. She's already laden enough that it is level day to day, when I load her up for a weekend with my kids and...

    NAS LR3 build with an overseas twist

    Out with a playmate, showing no signs of distress from the move. Two substantive reflections: -Used an autologic to input the wheel diameter, width, & tire size into the truck's configuration. Mileage on the way back from WV was 15 MPG, nearing 16 when I slowed down from 77. Could be a...

    LR3 / Discovery 3 Coil Conversion +2" Question

    Met up with him for dinner last night, he'd driven the truck over from WV-handling is much better though it is mitigated by his need to replace the rear upper control arms-that said the overall feel of the truck is tighter and the ride isn't bad at all. Codes are clearing out; I advocated for a...

    It's like the truck knows we are moving, have a million other things going on, and still wants attention. So she will get attention, at the dealer. (Prob the starter, just a single click when I turn the key-battery is good, negative was tight...I don't care). Needed to go in anyway bc the...

    LR3 / Discovery 3 Coil Conversion +2" Question

    We did, it seems to be working though he may need to adjust the height sensors or throw rods on. No report on ride quality, yet, bc he hasn't gotten it aligned so driving is minimal till that later this week. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    LR3 / Discovery 3 Coil Conversion +2" Question

    Colin- So my truck runs the AB premium kit, i.e. their +2 kit which uses OME Medium Duty springs. I installed, on a friend's truck, the AB HD kit which uses the OME Heavy Duty springs. My truck has a fridge, tools, recovery gear, roof rack, sliders, and a rear swing away with a full sized...

    LR3 / Discovery 3 Coil Conversion +2" Question

    What's the difference? I installed an AB Heavy Load kit last weekend and those springs are OME.

    NAS LR3 build with an overseas twist

    Actually doing the coil conversion, on another truck So I finally got the chance to do a coil conversion (and assist with upper a arms for that matter). Clifford (the big red dog) from Twin Mtn hit approx 175k and the EAS was clapped out so John opted for the heavy load +2 coil conversion kit...

    Yeah, I would be one of those complaints for sure Stu-very bad interaction w/them a few years back. That's actually why I have that JVC unit in the truck in fact. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Nothing amazing, just a JVC unit that gave me BT, ipod integration, etc. The part that makes it palatable, to me, is that it has enough colors to sorta match the green of other instruments and such. This shot kinda illustrates that.

    Lr4 roof racks

    Minimal things added, somewhere in my build thread you can see how its setup-I deliberately have kept stuff off this since she is the DD. My D1's SD rack has stuff festooned all over it. As far as prospeed's accessories I took a look at what they had and decided that, while elegant, there were...

    LR3 interior swap.

    Having lived with my black interior in Abu Dhabi's heat/sun, I can understand where you are coming from. Personally I'd either do the canvas seat covers or, more likely, go with some lighter wet okles in gray. The neoprene has, for me, tended to mitigate some of the ***** burning and also...

    NAS LR3 build with an overseas twist

    Just a little shot of normal Land Rover activities. Parts truck XD being moved for a new life as a rollover demo truck. I know 'it's rare' but it is also catastrophically rusted and mechanically dead so it will live on as a servant to safety. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    NAS LR3 build with an overseas twist

    Jumping in late; apologies to all for falling off my own build thread. I will throw myself to the mercy of the crowd given that I'm at the tail end of two weeks in Japan (meh) Vietnam (amazing) and now the PRC (somewhere in between-with 1.3B people) that I didn't take a computer on. Now on the...

    Gap tool question

    Odd. That hasn't been my experience. Even loaded the sag isn't that bad, and if one takes but a moment to figure out how much they plan on carrying then you have all the info you need to build the truck right. Not the easy button of EAS mind you...but not a button at all; just works. All the...
