I haven't noticed much sag when loaded up, at least not with the HD setup. I would agree that the self-leveling of EAS will be missed if I ever tow with mine; and if that is an intended application def keep the EAS. The idea of putting in switches to bypass the fuses that you can pull (F3E...

Take a look at my build thread in my sig line, I did the OME +2 conversion and love it. There are some on here that have done it and can quantifiably point towards the pros/cons, like NWoods notes it doesn't improve articulation. To me performance is a subjective statement, i.e. my performance...

Sadly the mat is probably the best way to go, my dash is starting to show at the passenger side airbag and I feel like that's an uphill battle against the sun out here-but I do try to cover it when I'm at work. If it ever gets really bad I'll probably go to a mat solution.

As others have noted; 87 is a false economy. In truth I only use it for my lawn mower (def not my vehicles, and not chainsaws either!). Welcome to the madness, treat your LR like she's spoiled in terms of maintenance and things like fillups, but drive the crap out of it b/c they respond to...

Check out page 2, some pics there. They nest into the rack quite well with the eye bolts tucking them into the front & with the ratchet strap holding them down. For longer journeys I do throw HD zip ties on but to give an idea of how little they move we were going along a highway in the desert...

Well, they are sour cream and onion, which my wife does think are brilliant. Playing with panoramic:

I guess I'm not as wound up about the end of the era as many, perhaps that's b/c I know plenty of series folks who think anything coil sprung isn't a real Rover (so the line doesn't go back to 48, but rather 83). I can also distinctly recall many Defenders folks quibbling that 110's and 90's...

& one more showing the versatility of the tailgate...for eating lunch on a hill, by a fort, over the gulf-with sour cream and onion Pringles

Some in stride shots from our trip up the coast to the Straits of Hormuz.

Did you order direct? If so, how bad was shipping to the US?

You got a sweet deal. I really wish Prospeed was more avail in the U.S.; AB carries their ladder ($400!) but I haven't seen their rack which is fantastic.

I'd switch the center caps over too, pretty sure LR or ebay can source those + the lugs Jimmy mentions. Truck looks sweet that's for sure.

So before all that I usually start with baselining the fluids and other consumeable or necessary maint items. I know its a Toyota, I mean a Lexus :), and not my cherished Land Rovers but as a fellow Toyota owner too (I just am not allowed to touch the wife's Tacoma, the 3rd Taco we've owned)...

Think he's got the maxtraxx already based on the post; the airing down thing is an interesting question though, I'm surprised it got so bogged down.

Is than an IR flood in between the two aux lights on the ARB? If so, with the follow on question...7B's for the driver or 14's? To keep things topical; concur on the Tonga Green...but I'm biased!

Well known as the color for the discerning LR3 owner... I am jealous of the wheels...must find a set of those to powder coat.

You could totally do that, in fact the instructions from Traxide discuss using your own switch and/or LED for applications like that. I honestly wanted to get it working since round I of the install was using the old instructions and while the batteries were isolated when the truck wasn't...

You could go the other direction and source some 20's which gets you back into Terragrapplers if I'm not mistaken. A buddy with an L322 has those on his truck and they look decent, obviously sidewall is not good for the rock aspect of what you mention but would do well for other applications...

Traxide install Didn't take too many pictures, others have this pretty well documented and the kit makes this rather simple other than the oft discussed routing of the control box into the cab (I had wires from lights that I used to fish it through). After trying to source a Deka here and...

Amazon sourced chinese LEDs tucked into my bumper...mostly b/c they were cheap, bright, and fit well. Their application is as much aux light vice fog, and they certainly put out good light (shot with them on shows difference between halogen & LED setups as I made the transition).
