You do not need to wait. The pollution being produced currently in China is destroying the planet. They can't actual get a lot more cars. There are not enough roads, or parking locations to support much more. The Chinese system is heading for collapse. The question is whether or not the...

What? Of course Big Macs are made in China. As to Land Rover, it would not surprise me if more Range Rover are not sold there than most other countries. You see a lot more of them in China than in North America. Confirmed here...

Regardless, not at that cost. You could not buy the parts for that, nevermind the labour.

You still won't get 35+ mpg. The laws of physics do not allow a reduction in wind resistance.

Bull****. Jeep can do it. Land Rover could do it as well if they had any amount of vision.

No, it is a discussion about a Defender replacement. The main target should be to produce the best production off road vehicle on the market. All other goals should fall below that. It needs to be better than a Rubicon, 75 series cruiser, patrol, g wagen....

With all due respect...I have a lot of experience wheeling with LR3s, LR4 and new RRs. I do know what I'm taking about. The electronics can make them perform well on moderate terrain in the right conditions. But they can't do anything hard and with the conditons a certain way, they can be...

But it shouldn't/ They "should" be making something to compete with the Wrangler. same price point, better off road. Easy to do if the wanted and would make a lot of money. Unforunately there is nobody at the Land Rover design department that has even been off road.

Yes, but coil springs, no electronics and independent suspension makes it useless off road.

Oh good god.... Have you ever been off road? The LR3 has some fancy electronics that make up for the really bad design for off road. The electronics help it through some easy to moderate terrain and that is about it. And, yes, I have personally spent many hours pulling LR3, LR4 and new RR...

That is really pretty, but it is strange they did not extend it to protect the track rod especially at that price.

OMG, I give up. You will never understand. Try reading what I've written.

I know... What I'm getting at is that if a vendor sells springs that can not work with the stock bumpstops, or that lift enough to require other mods, they should be making it clear that these other mods are needed and not just dump springs that won't work stock on the unknowledgable customer...

Stock rear spring ride length is let's say 11" with 3" BS clearance. OME 762, very popular spring. 9.5 coils at 18 mm bar. Top and bottom ground so 8.5 * 18 mm gives 6". Compressible length 11 - 6 = 5" Certainly space to hit the stops even in full articulation. Any properly design "spring...

Most "normal" spring lifts that people buy are intended to be used with all stock components including bumpstops. They should still have a collapsed length short enough to allow the axle to hit the bumpstops. It is HARDER to get them to collapse and static loads are usually not enough...

Tire clearance to the vehicle is controlled by the amount of possible compression travel. Compression travel is limited by the bumpstops. Putting longer springs on should not affect the amount of compression travel and thus not affect tire clearance. If the springs DO prevent compression...

Spring lifts do not affect tire clearance......

Maybe another one to test? http://www.detroitspeed.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=DSAEP&Product_Code=121201 My little write up for some more information, http://members.shaw.ca/Red90/Bright_Driver/Lights.html

This is simple.... The item was not air tight either. With air at the same pressure, it would have leaked in.

It depends where you live. Diesel and Gasoline average the same price here. Diesel is higher in the winter and Gas is higher in the summer. Let's see Georgia...http://www.georgiagasprices.com/ Diesel $3.80 to $3.90 RUG $3.45 to $3.60 Alberta...http://www.albertagasprices.com/ $3.70 to $3.80...
