    Another LR3 tire question

    Same diameter as? Stock? 31.5? 32? I run a 245/75/17 (31.5) but they are a bit narrow for my taste. Next time around I would go with a 265/70/17 (same 31.5 diameter)

    Another LR3 tire question

    I agree 100%. Had BFG AT's on my 18's, went with KM2's on my 17's The 17's are going to poke a bit and you'll look like a Hawaiian truck with a more street tire.

    Expedition Portal Project: 2008 Range Rover Sport

    Results not typical. Excluding regular maintenance my 08 LR3 (just a touch under 70k now) has only cost ~2500 for lower front control arms, and a couple hundred for a set of sway bar bushings

    Importing 1994-95 Land Rover 90

    While arguably not "legally" imported. I did sit in a left hand drive 2001 TD5 Defender 110 with Washington license plates a couple years back. Even have pictures for proof ;)

    Overland Journal Project Land Rover Discovery 4 (LR4)

    Ditto, but this LR4 isn't that old.. or at least I would assume it was new enough not to have that much buildup in the TB

    LR3 owners sound off, which tires?

    Buy the sensor for the new wheels. Not that expensive: http://www.bputah.com/RR44/Land_Range_Rover_Sport_LR3_LR4_Tire_Pressure_Monitoring_Sensor_TPMS.html

    Overland Journal Project Land Rover Discovery 4 (LR4)

    True because Tanner mentioned that he hated ABS offroad. Although I didn't think DSC would go that far, I've kept it on plenty of times and never had it go so far as to kill the engine

    LR3 suspension failure - not a bladder leak

    Slow down guys. I have seen this happen and we tracked down the problem after many hours. This happened to Houm_WA's truck if you search around on other forums and see his posts. . . You have bent a shock. It is now out of alignment causing the sway bar end link to bind and eventually break...

    Lr3 vs. lr4 towing

    Also remember those 32" tires are hurting its abilities as well. You effectively lowered your gear ratio and moved the shift points in the tranny. Going down to the stock size will probably make it tow better.
