Here's the battery bracket (RHD) part number: YJF500110. (You'll also need the posts, XYG500061, XYG000051) With exchange rates what they are, as you get critical mass to order from the UK may as well use folks like LR Direct...

Tough to say w/LEDs depending on source. My cat eyes are 15 amp for the whole mess I think. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh wow...I'm going to be sending you a pm shortly, I have a few questions and it is great to know a board member did this! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That is tough; my experience in being D1-less has not been pleasant. The times when I haven't had one I regretted getting rid of her and was always looking for the next one. Coyote basically is ver 3.0 for me and represents much of what I learned over the previous vehicles and having had to...

Blue Ridge Overland Gear Attic; consolidated (pt 2) The beta testing illustrating that the idea could work, and work well, but I was not satisfied with how crude some elements were. The crux of my concern was being able to quickly detach the attic if, for some reason, I didn't want it in...

Blue Ridge Overland Gear Attic; consolidated (pt 1) As a companion to the various updates in the Mantec overhead storage thread (MANTEC thread & with full credit to Markq for pointing out the Blue Ridge Overland Gear Land Cruiser Attic's compatability with the LR3 & LR4 platform, I figured I'd...

You mounted this under the brake lines?! :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey I recognize many of those pics from FB messenger! Install looks very good, nice and clean. Your post w/the LED strips reminds me I need to put a few more cat eye LEDs into my hatch when I do the backup camera. Where did you put the nifty NL controller/monitor? r- Ray

Sorta, well yes. Adding a Kenwood KOS V1000 to the mix, which will in turn allow for the integration of a K702 touchscreen monitor (i.e. a screen where nav would be if I didn't have an SE w/o it); GPS nav (& potentially XM too), a backup camera, blue tooth, ipod, etc. Still sorting out exactly...

That looks like a very nice radio. Will be interested in hearing where you are thinking of mounting it. I'm strongly considering pulling my Yaseu 7900 out of my D1, backfilling that with a cheaper VHF/UHF unit since it will primarly be for simplex GMRS use only on that truck, and mounting the...

Have a couple of Baofeng's in there too, but want to step up to vehicle mounted power output. That may be my Xmas present to myself.

Begrudingly, a CB Many thanks! The bumper & the rack are really the crown jewels for me, though ironically I think my wife would say the wet okle seat covers and the SnoMaster fridge are the best parts of the truck. Using this as a springboard, I noted somewhere that I went ahead and put a...

I can't even come up with a good response to that, I give you full credit and will pass this along to my oldest daughter who is our family's minister of bad puns and horrible jokes! Great pics in the LR3/LR4 thread BTW, love your truck's color contrast with the terrain. r- Ray

That is a personal pain threshold question; do you like frustration but saving a buck? If so the basket case may be a great way to get in a truck. Personally I overspent on a relatively low mile, meticulously maintained, rare (relative, but 5 speeds are not the bulk of the herd) D1 and...

So trolling in this thread aside, as you note by brand loyalists, I don't think the notion that the maint lifecycle or intervals being shorter is a primary reason they are 'unreliable.' Couple of thoughts: -In my experience Land Rovers are like many other complex machines (i.e. tanks); they...

Alum LR3 runners for the BROG attic; beta testing feedback. Final version Follow up from my long-winded, picture intensive, posts regarding the BROG attic as an alternative. Once on site in WV I played with the beta setup a bit more with high hopes of being able to integrate fastex buckles...

So I'm a long way from good drawings these days, but here's a sketch I'd done for myself to have the dimensions on hand so I could re-install my setup and still be able to make them for others if they desired. I'm not going to go into BROG LR3 attic runner business so it isn't proprietary to me...

Solid write up. I too have been very happy with my SnoMaster fridge in my LR3; worth its weight for sure and the features the unit comes with out of the box (transit bag, wireless remote, etc) make it a good value at the cost. r- Ray

Thanksgiving '16 update; Snomaster performs, ~100k fluid changes, & dirt roads A collection of shots from the holiday weekend to highlight/document a few things. Snomaster fridge continues to be an excellent investment, the following pic illustrating one of the reasons why-the two basket...

The best way to sort this is to give in and get one. :) What you will find is that it can't go nearly as fast as the RRS, but can haul a lot more and go to a lot more places without fear of breaking the nice car. It can do Rubi like things, but more comfortably, and it will have quirky charm...
