Eric, If you use Instagram checkout his history. There is bunch of 60sec reviews on driving the D5 for a week. https://www.instagram.com/lucky8offroad/

I occasionally have the opposite but maybe related problem. Mine will only read 3/4 full after filling up (19+ gal according to the pump). I run a bottle of techron fuel system cleaner about once a year to fix mine.

The supercharged RRS has enough power to turn 35"s. It also has "disconnecting" hydraulic sway bars. Just wish there were some slider, sliders, and bumper options for the RRS.

I bet she notices the gaping hole in the bank account this mod leaves before the change to the LR3. At least mine would. :-)

Im sure its not everyones cup-of-tea, but I think its amazing what you have done. Well done sir!! How is the gearing?

Just the rear sway bar. It broke, so I tried a week without it...felt fine, so turned into permanent. Surprisingly not much different on road. On off ramps it feels like an extra tire on the roof. Glad I run normal ride height on road. Definitely more articulation though. Might have to...

Great discussion. Thanks for testing out the tire sizing options. Duratracs are discontinued and Im due for new brakes...Going to 17" and like the skinny idea! I used to easily fit my 275/26r18 Duratracs, but with the rear sway removed, I ripped out my wheel liner on the most recent KY...

Love my ARB rear locker too. Might do the front if L8 Offers them! Are you considering offering lower gearing options?

Sorry - fixed. Google photos is such a PITA. Used it a few times this past week. It worked but thermal shutdown way too often. Im going to return it for a new one and see if that fixes it.

The LR3 bumper might be shorter than the LR4s. I tried and tried and tried to fit 2.5" spacers between the frame and winch tray, but its really not needed and just causes all sorts of bumper fit issues. 4 cutting discs later, I decided to mount directly to my 2006 LR3 frame. The bumper skin...

Those three vehicles could not be more different (other than the logo)

D5 will make a nice addition to the fleet. I think the 2007 LR3 were still "Chawton White" like my 2006. Thats the classic creamy white and my FAV of all the white varieties. GLWtS

I have a Dometic CFX-40 and love it. Got it on Amazon warehouse deal for about the same price as a YETI. Only complaint WAS accessories are difficult to source in the US (Looks like slide mounts, insulated covers, and remote monitors are all in US stock now).

I just have the orange in the front lowers and it was a mild improvement. Feels good with no squeaks or harshness.

Id love to do a solar project, but have not needed it yet. I have a Dometic 40L that runs 12-18 hours every night on the stock battery no problems. My LR3 is wired for a 2nd, but I stole it years ago for the ski boat in a pinch and never replaced it. We wheel all day to the next camp site, so...

Fair enough, but I have sat in both and driven a rental explorer many times. The exploiter is more than capable to deliver what 97% LR owners are looking for in mall parking capabilities and better looking than the D5 - it only lacking in exclusivity. In this day-and-age of Instagram/Facebook...

Potential and a more hopeful user community than this: Even this part is more LR3/4 than the D5:

Disco 5 clearly shares more with ford explorer than LR3/4. Honestly I think the Explorer looks better and more cohesive design.

Thanks for your concern for my parking brake, but its been setup this way for years and 35K+ miles...no problem with heat or CO. The original PB still works great, which is rare on 2006 LR3. More importantly, the pipes that run under the rear diff no longer get smashed on rocks. Better yet...

I would be surprised is a failing CAT would cause back fires. Another option: I cut my pipes in front of the rear axle and bolted on turndown tips. I can always reinstall the resonators if needed (for inspection) but never have. The sound is 5% better :)
