Yup. Throwing 60s under a TJ doesn't make it anymore reliable for "overland travel" than one with the factory axles. Mr. Myagi said.. "must have balance"

IIRC the old trucks had some crazy high limit of like 14,000lbs? at 5mph offroad, center diff open, low range "in case of emergencies." But even those were rated for normal towing at 7700lbs which is bonkers that something with 170hp could even manage to move that weight, but it does. I towed...

I'd beg the differ. My son LOVES the roof tent. It's his treehouse. That being said, I sold mine and am going to a ground tent. Why? All the negatives about a RTT are really noticeable. And the softcover tent SUCKS to set up and put away. I'm not interested in the Shiftpod because frankly it...

Single day trip? That's lovely. Thanks for sharing.

Everyone who has these hates them. They came on Trailhawk WKs and the LR Defender.

It definitely increases the axle’s load carrying, and I’m sure they didn’t want dealers charging $3500 in labor for rear rotor replacement if it was a conventional style. Not to mention training all the techs how to properly pack a bearing… lol

I don't think they'd be able to fit the appropriate sized wheel bearings and a hub and fit it in a 5x5 bolt pattern if they did it the conventional way. The solid Rover axles are the smallest full floaters I've seen and the bolt pattern is a 5 lug but almost Mitsu Fuso sized.

You put white shock on a D5? I would have at least given Fox a call. I didn’t realize the air springs and shocks are separate on these like the RR.

full float... axle.

You don’t need to do anything to the truck with that tire size besides mount them.

My Swift awning arrives Monday, been eyeing something self-supporting (the ARB-style sucks to deploy and put away solo) and this BF deal sealed it for me. Thank you!

The 8ft is huuuuge gonna be hard to find a deal with shipping on one. I'm selling this exact setup but same issue with shipping it to you.

Glad you had a nice time a the Peconic campground, I've driven by it countless times and there is always a group or two there so I wondered what it was like. I believe it's also year-round which is the opposite of all the other state and country parks out here. Plenty of great stops along Sound...

The motors are the same. If I didn’t need the third row, and didn’t mind the very slight loss in cargo volume I’d be going full size Range Rover. The sport in that generation is based on the LR3/4 platform and pretty small inside.

IIRC LCAs are interchangeable but UCAs are not.. up front at least.

Top Gear's offroad chase trucks went from L322 Range Rovers, to LR3/4, and then to Rangers. Not Hiluxes. So, threes a lot to be said there.

Darche highrise 1550.

The likelihood of you breaking axles in a JL or Defender while on stock tires is near zero.

If you’re getting into situations where you need more than the rear locker and extraordinary traction control you’re on the wrong trail and should have brought something with solid axles. I’m saying this as a LR4 owner who’s buy a D110 if I could.

Without question the Jeep is a better wheeler. 35s stock, 37s with minimal mods. The 90 will be comfortable, is larger inside, quieter, and will do every trail that you’d be “overlanding” on with ease.
