    Need some advice on making offer on LR3

    I would not buy it broken for anywhere near that, more like (don't flame) 8ish, I guess I'd have to see it. I'd prefer to buy it working.

    LR4 multi purpose duty

    There is probably space where the lighter socket is / sound jack is if that is your preference. You might go with one of these surface mount/chassis mount and do it up nicely. Just look through the accessories page for various options...

    LR4 multi purpose duty

    Those two are Marine Power Plugs. Not ideal, but sometimes you just need a compatible socket. After doing some fiddling and testing with Hella plugs I was glad I went with Andersons. You could install Hella plugs like that if you wanted. Note the placement, which is contrary to the instructions...

    LR4 multi purpose duty

    Yes, that's right. Lots of the guys here have the Traxide. You can look through my gallery there, I have some pictures in the traxide section, several of the guys here have posted nice write ups with pictures. If you did not get it with the wiring, happy to make some recommendations on that...

    LR4 multi purpose duty

    Yes-- Here is what I did-- this solved the voltage drop and warming issues with any Cig or Hella type plug-- If you only need this one thing, you can send me your cord and I'll put ends on the wires, or your local ham club probably has a member with the tools and stuff to do anderson connectors...

    LR4 multi purpose duty

    I've found that direct wiring works better in the long run, using Anderson connectors, you won't lose any voltage (efficiency). I think we missed the boat on this, as he stated he was leaving 12/31.

    LR3 2005 vs Newer With More Miles

    I do not think you can go wrong with either one really. As the years have ticked by there have been minor improvements, but not really anything major. All the components are pretty much the same. I would focus on the features it has. The fluids should all be changed on either one, regardless of...

    LR3/4 second battery (deep cycle) option

    The two links Ray linked up are good places to start, read through them both. Here is a link to my pics. You will find the most useful pictures under Traxide, Ham, Solar, Fridge, etc. Below is pictured the final finished 2nd battery as it is today. I did modify and improve on the setup over...

    LR3/4 second battery (deep cycle) option

    Yup, I have a setup like that- Traxide, Fridge, Ham, 100W solar, etc. Happy to provide you any details or pictures if that helps. The bracket can be ordered separately, as well as the bolts. I would suggest the Deka line, I've switched over to Deka, happy so far with them. Retired the two...

    LR3 Xenon Replacement bulbs - thoughts & opinions

    I can't see $175 worth of improvement compared to the Phillips HID 2S 85122+ I ordered on e-bay from Japan for 64.00. Perhaps someone has pictures. 43 posts and 3 votes LOL I do believe these bulbs have a break in period though.

    Decision time

    Cure your brake problems with EBC Sport rotors and Green Stuff pads.. :Mechanic: You should be good for a light rotor turn each pad change and at least 80-100k.

    LR4 Auxiliary Light Switch Options

    It seems like it should be made to work. You might contact the company to see what the options are for channels. If that won't work, the company I used has some decent options. I e-mailed them and they custom configured and programmed a 4 channel system, with 2 10a and 2 30a remote relays, which...

    LR4 Auxiliary Light Switch Options

    You need to locate it just below/behind/right of the brake booster.. You could also do a wireless remote relay and avoid internal wiring completely. Here is the firewall plug and a bunch of other pictures that should help.

    First winch setup. Smitybilt XRC 9,500lbs

    Welding Cable will get you there. I'd personally prefer a single run vs a dual run if it is possible. It seems the ready made warn wires would be rated for the task, and length though for your purposes. Bigger is almost always better with wire like this though. I don't think I would go with...

    Which Diehard Platinum for '08 Range and an '06 LR3

    Good, The Deka AGM Intimidator it's still working great for me. The one I mentioned has a hole for the vent tube as well. Here it is.
