Awesome write up!!!!

If you don't mind could you link the post about lc200 tire size? I searched in i8mud for a while and the vast majority, maybe 3 for every 1, of post said that you should stay with a 32.5 tire. Which is only an inches over the lr......... a game of inches we have.

I'm land rover all the way. That being said.... what is this rig's purpose? With a budget of 60k... work and play...lx470. Overlanding and camping...... 4x4 spinter. I say this about jeeps and it applies to toyota..... everyone has one. Be unique..... half the fun of building your rig is...

im pretty sure you are right! I will take pics and do a write up. I plan on keeping this rig for a while. That being said, anything I can change to make maintaining it easier I will happily do.

Awesome! any damage?

Well boys we have a minor issue!! I walked outside and found a small puddle of transmission fluid on the ground. A quick look and my Mechatronics Guide Sleeve is leaking. Being that I am at the 100k mark I had planned on doing a fluid and filter change anyway. This is where things get...

Post up some pics if u get it

Since some cats decided to have a massive street brawl right side my window I can't fall back asleep now. Well in just over a week I have put almost 2100 miles on rover between two trips here are some pictures

Thanks for the reply! The instructions are straight forward.... there are just a 1000 steps it seems. For the rear bumper I want to say the price was right around $1500 shipped. I will double check on that when I get home. Currently at the sand rover rally in FL. As for reliability, I had an...

they are around the Ococee. Prior to the trip I installed a tactical rovers rear bumper. Why did I choose this bumper? From the extensive research I did there were only a few choices. Voyager racks offers a swing out tire carrier that uses the factory plastic bumper. I personally didn't like...

You skipped NEW ORLEANS!!!!! in all truth I dont blame you mexico sounds safer some days.

a couple of teaser pics from the shakedown trip

Mint!!!!!

from what i researched the LR4 onlt has a problem with the LUX transfercase, otherwise they are solid.

A 2010 lr4 and a 2010 4 runner trail are both around 25k used. Neither are bullet proof vehicles. They are about equal in gas millage (lr4 is rated lower but I get about 22 highway), and in size. They are not equal in horse power and towing.... the lr4 has it hands down. What you need to do is...

I drive a 2012 Tahoe for work. I have had it since new and currently have 83k on the clock. Mine isn't 4wd but some federal ones are. From what I have seen on repair bills the parts aren't any cheaper then a rover. I have gone through 3 wheel bearings, two motor mounts, one bellhousing bolt...

I got bored today, since it was the 3rd straight day of rain, and made a mount for my treds. This is all a little rough and if I keep it I will paint it. I left the mounts on the back long so that if I happen to pack a case by the mount the rounded bolt heads won't cause too much damage. I...

Yeah that compressor is going to be way too large. I mounted the CKMA12. It comes with a small mounting plate but it wouldn't work due to the slope of the inner fender. So using the stock mounting plate I made one identical in width and thickness. The only change I made was that it was 8 inches...

I have the 275/65r18 dura trac and I love them. They aren't loud on the highway and do well in the mud. I have heard complaints about them popping the bead but haven't seen that personally . The local SAR uses them on their trucks and likes them also.

Got home early and installed the traixde (just winging the spelling) kit and sighted in the Hella 4000s headlights with fogs and Hellas regular headlights with 55w led fogs
