    LR3/4 Prospeed or Front RunnerLadder

    I find it interesting that Prospeed, Front Runner, and the Land Rover OEM ladders all rust (my LR ladder showed signs of rust within 12 months). Must be a tough nut being a ladder. Surprised that top brands rust so quickly. I haven't seen a ladder yet with a finish that can tough it out more...

    Lucky8’s Project Discovery 3

    Nice write up so far. I sure hope we don't have to wait until 2018 to get the lowdown on the 35"s you're currently running.

    Big Decision for my Discovery 1

    As someone who drives a 98 Disco with over 236k on the odometer I'd be torn too! Have you ever had the heads machined and new head/valve gaskets put in? That's a LOT cheaper than a new engine. If it's like any normal Rover and just leaks, replace any leaky hoses (power steering, etc), keep...

    Selling my Heavy Duty LR3

    I love those rims, they're the same ones I use. I'm looking for another set if you know where to obtain them? Where did you get yours?

    Lift rods vs GAP?

    I've got all 3 myself (IID Tool, Johnson lift rods, and the LLAMS system, and a Nanocom Evo too). I started with Lift Rods, then lowered with my Nanocom when I wasn't off-roading for daily driving so I could leave them on but one of my sensors was so far out in the values that I couldn't lower...

    Dual Battery Installation in LR3

    I was able to wrestle my grommet back into place by standing inside the open drivers door (or maybe it was closed), reaching to grab the wires under the hood with my left hand and using my right had to pull the wires under the dash in the cabin and by moving back and forth I was able to get the...

    Dual Battery Installation in LR3

    I had to extend the length of this wire because I couldn't find anywhere to ground to the body anywhere near where I mounted the USI-160 (I mounted mine in the same location as seen in the photo on Page 1 of this thread). I ran the extended wire to an unused earth bolt dead center behind the...

    Questions about national luna dual battery install for lr3

    I have the Traxide D3-AU kit AND a NL battery monitor (because I felt the same way you do about wanting that). The Traxide kit is a very convenient zero fuss way to go because it's a bolt on kit, All the wires are pre-cut, and terminated, etc. Highly recommend them and the support is awesome...

    Range Rover tire and wheel fitment (FFRR)

    I have 20" wheels from a FFRR on my LR3 and I'm running Nitto Terra Grapplers. They are great all around tires.

    LR3 brake kit recombination?

    I believe my last purchase for Yellow Stuff pads was on either Amazon or AutoAnything.

    LR3 brake kit recombination?

    I also highly recommend EBC rotors and brake pads, however I did NOT like the Green Stuff brake pads as they wore out very quickly and will never use that color again. Went with Yellow Stuff brake pads and won't go back. Yellow lasts longer and I've seen NO difference in braking abilities. I use...

    New product from Proud Rhino! The SYA Off Road Extension Kit

    Nick, that's the point of having this kit. To keep your tires from rubbing the wheel wells when a suspension failure happens. The guys at Lucky8 are running 33" tires on their LR3 and had it drop to the bump stops with this kit, but they could still roll because of this kit.

    Land Rover Boise to the Rescue!!!

    Exact same thing happened to me last August at the National LR Rally in Grand Junction. We were wheeling with Bill Burke who was spotting me up a small ledge when my 5 month old drive shaft sheared and ended my trek. I bought my driveshaft from a reputable supplier here in the USA, but not sure...

    LR3 Steel Wheel Options

    Why not just use a set of alloy wheels for your mud tires? You're making this way harder than it needs to be. I truly off-road in Northern Minnesota and my wheels have taken a beating from rocks but they don't leak air and give me no problems. Here's the worst thing that is going to happen. (see...

    20" wheels for a Range Rover Supercharged?

    Wow, that looks awesome! Have you also figured out how to do this with the LR3/LR4? It will be another 10 years before I could afford a newer USED Rangie.

    LR4 multi purpose duty

    Ahhhh, fresh money to burn!!! Have fun, and take time to do your research on the items you're planning on installing. My two cents... ditch the TPMS sensors for the off-road wheels. Ditch them all together if you can defeat the light on the dash that will no doubt shine bright in the absence of...

    Tire warranty coverage?

    Do it!!! I actually didn't have a warranty on any of my 5 mud tires until I slashed a sidewall after 1 year of wheeling. I took my truck into Discount Tire, paid about $375-$400 to replace the single trashed tire and then proceeded to spend $40-45ea. on all 4 other tires to prevent this from...
