I tried to buy used engines for my 2002 Montero (3.5L) and got ripped off twice, I lost thousands of dollars in the process. I would suggest NOT going that route. Unless you see it in front of you, can touch it, and and can walk away with it at that moment, it's just a phantom. Ultimately I...

I am looking for Jeep WK in moderate to decent interior condition, exterior can be in pretty much any general condition, as long as its safely drivable. If built up already that would be great, but certainly not a perquisite. If there are issues with the engine, I am willing to repair it. If...

Hmmm..... Am I counting correctly? That looks an awe full lot like a small block V8

I packed a family of 4 for long distance (week long) trips in my Land Rover LR3 and also in my Jeep LJ Rubicon. I preferred using a trailer with the Jeep, but it wasn't essential, it just made things a lot easier: I will say that that though it was the least capable, it was by far...

Looks like you want one of these: https://www.automobilemag.com/news/torus-praetorian-overlander-4x4-bus-info-photos/

As a long time LR3 enthusiast and former owner, we now have a GX in the family and its interesting to compare. I agree with your previously stated synopsis, and could go on and on about the differences, but you summed it up well, the LR3 is more pleasurable to drive.

Christmas list has been updated......

Sorry, yes, I am being a bit of butthead with the above comment.

How about something like this? But drill holes in them, and tie them together with a short length of marine grade nylon cord

I would hypothesize that yes, it will be a problem, only in the sense that the engine management computer is looking for signals from the O2 sensors that are downrange of the Cat. I would assume that without a Cat in place, those sensors are either missing or will read values out of the...

Gentle little bump. Had some interest, but hasn't resulted in anyone coming out to grab them yet. Still avail!

I do NOT recommend the third row seat well. That would be incredibly loud, and very limited airflow.

I just posted this up here: https://expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/five-265-70-17-bfg-ko2-tires-for-sale-80-wear-on-stock-lexus-gx470-wheels.220860/ Tires are in SoCal

Wheels and tires have been sold: 12/9/2020 ---------------------------------------------- Yorba Linda CA (northern Orange County, SoCal) I have stock OEM Lexus GX470 wheels with nearly new BFG KO2 tires mounted to them. We just bought this vehicle and off-roaded once before upgrading it with a...

Wow, heck of a deal. GLWS!

Gotcha. Pretty damn clever, as always. Cheers!

I echo the comments on Goose Gear. however, for a more homebuilt assembly, its not hard. I built a platform for a Jeep LJ a few years ago. Nothing fancy, but it worked amazing for my needs. The key at the end was the Tuffy Tie Down bar. Here is a photo of half the platform (rear seat back...

Those bags look great. Can you really hold a fairly heavy tool roll in one of those bags by velcro alone? I think I would want redundant retention, where the seat strap ran through loops behind (or perhaps inside the flap of) the storage bag. I did something similar to create a CamelBak water...

Yes, the H is hardmount, the P is Portable. Same compressor. I had a 400H in my LR3, took about 40 minutes to air up four 31" tires on 18" wheels. My Jeep had a 450P with a 2 gallon air tank, took about 20 minutes to air up 35" tires on 16" wheels (massively more air volume than the LR3)...

Great questions! - Front recovery points are difficult to add, usually requiring frame mods, welding, front bumpers, winches and winch plates, or a combination of the above. Easiest to use use your rear tow hitch receiver and get pulled out backwards. The absolute simplest way is to thread...
