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

    Rock crawling is NOT the only scenario you'd run into where you'd utilize the full travel of the suspension. This can happen on a simple looking rut. I personally think you'd be crazy and asking for the worst to run this without the straps to ensure a CV failure doesn't occur.

    LR3 / LR4 buying guide and maintenance tips

    Actually the HSE LUX is the "top" model. The main difference with the LUX is the upgraded leather it comes with, which is far superior to the standard leather. Things like Xenon HID projections lights and the upgraded HK sound system were also a part of the LUX package, however I believe both...

    it's stated right on the website (http://the-waterport.myshopify.com/products/waterport-bed-mounted): This tank is easily filled and pressurized simultaneously with a standard garden hose. Simply connect, fill and your ready for use. If a pressurized water source is unavailable, the tank can be...

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

    I recently purchased the Llams kit and I really like it. I think what I like most is running the LR3 at 30mm lower while on the highway....I actually see an improvement in 2 MPGs as a result.

    2008 Land Rover LR3 HSE LUX w/locker

    Nice rig for sure. I want to point out that the leather on the seats of LUX versions is top notch when compared to the non-LUX models....not even in the same ballpark.

    My LR3 lightweight storage platform build (UPDATED: actual dimensions on pg 4)

    I've had 3 guys standing on the revised platform with no issue or deflection in any of the aluminum bars - ~145 lbs, ~165 lbs and ~185 lbs totaling ~495 lbs. I would have full confidence with 2 people sleeping the platform....though my particular platform isn't long enough front to back to...

    My LR3 lightweight storage platform build (UPDATED: actual dimensions on pg 4)

    Materials have held up great. Have well over a dozen off-road trips with the platform with the fridge sitting on it and only a hand full with the fridge now moved to the new location. The platform with the fridge weight plus gear was able to handle all the offroading bumps, ruts and rocks that...

    LR4 Auxiliary Light Switch Options

    I posted this a while ago on one of the LR forums: Over the weekend I fitted the Factory Lr3 2nd driving light switch to my IPF 960 driving lights. This is the switched used with the factor driving light kit and the good news is that switch and mounting kit available seperately from the $700+...

    Installed it myself and from what recall you didn't need anything more than a basic metric ratchet set and some screw drivers.

    LR4 fridge placement

    I use to have my ARB 50L Fridge in the back on a slider on top of a platform I built, however we were always wanting access to food/drinks while on the road. This summer I removed the middle seat in the second row and placed it there....couldn't be happier and the fit is perfect (see below)...

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

    JAK thanks for the reply. The ability to utilize access mode is critical for me as its the only way I can fit my LR3 in my garage. At this point it doesn't appear the Proud Rhino kit or your bump stop replacement allows for use of access mode without the LR3 thinking its hit an obstacle. For...

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

    I assume the longer bump stop reduces the struts ability to compress as much as it should with the stock bump stop. Have you noticed any downside to this? Also, how much lomger did you make the bumpstop vs stock? Also, what ID and OD tube did you use? Finally, any problems with going down to...

    My LR3 lightweight storage platform build (UPDATED: actual dimensions on pg 4)

    The plywood is attached to all 3 cross members, including the one closest to the second row. I'm using 1/2" plywood (Russian Birch - light weight and strong) as opposed to 3/4". I was able to have just enough room to bolt it down with the elevator bolts...
