As stated, the XZLs are horrible on tarmac.... What type of off road use?

I see these type of quote often and I wonder if the posters actually have been out off road and compared performance side by side against other brands. Mud performance is OK and on par with other similar streetable "mud" tires. It is certainly not "very, very good". You need proper off road...

What do you mean by "suit"? Are you worried about looks or performance? If performance, in what type of terrain? As to size, that is another open question... What rims do you have?

Can you provide more info? Can the alarm points be adjusted? How is it showing roll and pitch at the same time?

It is not a direct short. You will get around 100 amps or so through the 1/8" rod, maybe a bit more, much less than a starter. Assuming 50 A-h batteries, you have half an hour, which is a huge amount of time.

Just make sure you get at much as possible from the donor truck. Decide, plan and budget for maintenance work that you want to do at the time (hoses, clutch?...) and have those parts come with the engine.

You need the fan if you go off road. It is rare it is needed on the road. Off road it is needed all the time.

There is a shroud for the fan that covers the radiator. The intercooler is not shrouded. The stock fan shroud goes over both the radiator and the intercooler but is poorly designed and restricts airflow through the intercooler.

Reliability and capacity are all in the design and implementation of the system. It is important to use a fan with adequate capacity and design and build it to be reliable. This is all easily possible. the system I use has much more flow capacity than will ever be required and is built to OE...

When done properly an electric fan works well. The viscous fans are quite unreliable, IME. You can see my writeup above. Mine has been in for years, with a lot of hard use. No problems at all. For expedition trip, I carry a spare motor in case. They cost very little. I used a Flexalite...

There is a guy up hear with a custom extension for his 90

All those size require trimming. A simple spring lift will not affect the amount of trimming needed.

If for on road, I would not waste your money. You should not need one and it won't do much anyway if you already have working rear ETC. I would suggest trying Goodyear Duratracs. Quite good on snow and ice and not bad off road. Much better than the BFG ATs for both purposes.

Really? I live in a very wintery location and drive on ice and snow half the year. I have find no difference on the road with the Detroit or Truetrac from when I had open diffs. As to the OP, I would put an Ashcroft ATB diff in the rear or in both. They work great with the traction control...

2 were genuine, 2 Britpart. The genuine ones are 10 times the cost.

Good to hear. I've been through 4 lift pumps in 5 years. They are very unreliable....

If the lift pump is working, when you crank, you should get tons of flow from the filter bleed screw. If you do not get this, you have a massive intake side leak or a dead lift pump. The return lines should have nothing to do with anything as those are all after the engine and the filter. I...

What a strange size. Why is god's green earth would Rover do this?

Yah, gelling. It depends on where you get the fuel from. Throw in some Powerservice 911 and then follow with Powerservice in the white bottle every fill. Can't hurt to change the fuel filter.

You should have done one at a time... It make the comparison much easier.
