I do enjoy driving that block from time to time - always some nice rigs to look at.

Weld on bracket started with the 08 LR3. So 05-07 had a bolt on that could easily be removed to run larger tires. Starting in 08 it changed to weld on. It doesn't foul my 31.5" tires but does rub a little when the tires are new. So if you want to run 32" on a late LR3 or LR4 expect to cut/weld...

Haha a bit tongue in cheek - but yeah not advisable... although I have done it accidently once or twice tightening battery cables... doh

:beer:

Ooooh very nice. Looks like I won't be the only one on 17's much longer :)

Who cares about isolation when the DAMN posts directly on the batteries TOUCH EACH OTHER Try this, go get a wrench and lay it across either of the 2 terminals. It will spark nicely. If some miracle of nature occurs and there is no spark, well then you're fine ........... . . But I will guess...

Can 1 of the batteries be turned around? It looks very scary to have the positive on one battery so close to the negative on the other battery AND the positive/negative wires touching each other on the cross over- if the batteries moved a little, something fell on it or the insulation on the...

Search for Brody's Brake Bible - you can download it from disco3.co.uk. The rear brakes require a very precise procedure to be followed when changing the rotors. If you don't, you WILL destroy your rear parking brake.

Sweet steelies. It will be interesting to see if they can hold up to the weight off road. Regarding articulation - if you want more, you will absolutely need longer top/bottom control arms and CV halfshafts. We have established that when the bump stop degrades in a strut or if it becomes bent...

Least reliable Honda ever made :coffeedrink:

Great write up. I bought a kit from Green Oval Experience: http://www.greenovalexperience.com/#!eas/cl9p . To do the same thing - I haven't installed it yet. Actually I bought 2 additional kits to save on shipping - if anyone wants to buy one.

Haha welcome to the LR forum.... You are missing the point of that photo - but that's ok. The general consensus is, the LR3 with coils does not have the same articulation as the EAS airbags.

I agree, I don't think there is any way IFS with coils will allow as much articulation as this:

I love my 17's. Welcome to the club :P Thanks for getting this project going - I would love to see more offroad parts for the LR3.

My first guess was Arles, but wasn't used back then. I found this paint code list: http://www.landroverseries.org/paint-codes.htm . . Looks like "Marine" blue was used during the 80's. Here's a defender with it (new re-spray)

Holy hell that 101 is awesome. Any pics of the inside?

Can someone with an LR4 take a quick photo of the bracket at the rear of the front wheel wells. Here is a shot of my weld on ones from the 08-09 LR3. I would be surprised if they are substantially different. . Clearance shot with BFG AT's . . Oh and maybe "kiss" was a little deceiving. They...

2005-2007 all had a bolt on Outrigger. 2008+ LR3 and all LR4's have a weld on Outrigger. The weld on one gets in the way on 31.5" and larger. It just barely kisses it at 31.5" While this will stop the rubbing for on road driving, it won't change the fact that as the suspension articulates it...

Wow didn't see this one coming. My dad loved his old KO's but decided to switch to the duratrac's for visual appeal. But he doesn't like them quite as much. I enjoyed my last set of KO's but found a couple times when they were letting me down in the slippery PNW so I went to the KM2's, but I...

IMO the v6 does not add any meaningful advantage over the v8. Both engines are very reliable. Any issues you are going to fix out in the bush are going to be related to engine "accessories" that are LR specific. The disadvantage is you are limited on the years that you can buy since it was...
