Cool! We were there early August, and in addition to Imogene Pass, did Engineer Pass, Black Bear Pass, Cinnamon Pass, Ophir Pass - Our LR4 and friends' LR3 didn't miss a beat :)

Fridge?

At some point last winter I also picked up a Frontrunner drawer system at one of their sales and installed - love it. Have a hi-lift jack and a frontrunner table on the roof too - modified and mounted the frontrunner "table sliding kit" upside down as it can not fit under the LR roof rack...

Last few... Bobby's Hole, inspecting the challenge, spent 2-3 hours getting the cars up, using maxtrax and hi-lift jack to move a boulder. A picture of a little friend we came across in the Utah desert Apologies for the lack of proper photography and coverage of the amazing things we saw...

More near Engineer Pass Cinnamon Pass - bit disappointing and least challenging. Ophir is also easy, but a lot prettier - perhaps we were just overloaded with impressions at this point. Coming down Cinnamon Pass completed the Alpine Loop, and put us in Silverton. Since our base for the...

Some random pictures from the trip - too busy driving that taking good photos was often forgotten or became secondary... :) Ophir Pass (my buddy's white LR3) Telluride (Black Bear Pass is in the background - you essentially go down that and cross the water fall you see) Imogene (The two...

Figured I woud resurrect this thread since I am about to make some further modifications... The tire carrier has now been on for 1.5 years and many, many miles, both on road and off-road, and it is still like the day we finished it :) This late July, early August we had a great 10 days doing...

For anyone looking for an aux fuel tank sender and gauge kit similar to the OP's... I ordered this out of Australia: http://www.dnaoffroad.com.au/auxiliary-fuel-tank-sender-and-gauge.html and will use it with the Frontrunner tank I bought from Ray. I believe this is the same brand as the OP's...

Put them up on the rack empty, fuel them while mounted on top in the frontrunner mount (easy standing on the rear tire), have a siphon pump ($10-$20) to move fuel from jerry cans to fuel tank, take them down empty = no stress on your body, lifting full jerry cans :) To facilitate that I would...

Thanks for the great read! and well done! Watched the US Top Gear episode recently where they completed the Rubicon and have been wondering if an LR3/4 could do it - now we know :)

That is one up on the factory mount - nice! :)

Were you able to retain the front parking sensors? With the OEM Warn winch you lose front parking sensors... Not a big concern, I didn't care, but could be a benefit to some.

Which curved led light bar is that? What size? Does it follow in the contour of the expedition rack well?

I have the OEM expedition rack on my LR4, a friend has the frontrunner rack on his LR3 - we do a lot of camping, and I wish I had access to a similar set of accessories... to the point of having bought some frontrunner accessories and modified them to work on my factory roof rack... If I could...

Thanks Jake, received! Sold.

Not sure what happened to Jakesr5... Since I got shipping quote, he accepted, and I provided payment info he has not responded... So, jeepdreamer, unless I hear back and receive payment from Jakesr5 shortly, they are yours.

I recently built my own tire carrier for my LR4: http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/151003-LR4-multi-purpose-duty?p=2062534#post2062534 , and initially ordered 2 heavy duty hinge kits with the aluminum screw on cap from comp4x4...

Pardon the red Utah dust :) Here are some pictures of the final tire carrier in "action"... We plan to get the carriers powder coated for durability. For now they are just rattle-canned. I also hope/plan to replace the bolt on the latching mechanism with a quick release for more convenient...

We finished it and have just completed the 100 mile White Rim Road trail in Canyonlands, UT, as well as the 800 miles up to Canyonlands from Southern California - the carrier worked perfectly. I will post some final pictures of the carrier shortly. It works well, and despite mounting the tire...
