    265/65/19 tyres on a D4?

    Aren’t you running 255/60/19? Also should be some clarification of the question asked. The 255/65/19 is the size available on the new Defender. It is 32” in diameter and you’d need to run a bit of lift to clear it IMO. A 255/60/19 will fit at stock height. Frankly I’m not aware of anyone making...

    LR3 Dash Cover...

    All I can say is everyone with a Coverlay I’ve encountered has been very pleased with it. I’d have at least given it 5 minutes to test fit before giving up...

    LR3 Dash Cover...

    Coverlay is the only option for dash fixes imo. Looks completely factory

    LR4 Coil conversion?

    To each his own but I find the air suspension exceedingly comfortable. My wife gets car sick very easily and loves it. Not to mention you kill one of the best off road features

    LR3 Bonnet Latch Releasing in Gusts on Freeway

    Investigate the actual problem with the cable instead of slapping on some tacky hood latches ??‍♂️

    LR3 Bonnet Latch Releasing in Gusts on Freeway

    The hood latches on either side are quite finicky. Try adjusting and lubing them. If it continues see if either or both should be replaced. I still have to slam the hell out of mine and had it pop loose in a similar fashion you mention. Make sure you’re really closing it hard too

    Will I still be able to drive these tires with a suspension fault?

    Think you should be able to but get a GAP tool (or similar) and never worry about being stuck on the bump stops again

    Disco 2 skinny 16" wheels - calling all wheel guru's

    I’d consider checking the weight rating of any wheel you buy, especially one off of a much lighter Honda..

    Disco 2 skinny 16" wheels - calling all wheel guru's

    ds., the 16” wheels on 03‘/04’ models were only 7” wide IIRC

    Disco 2 skinny 16" wheels - calling all wheel guru's

    Just run them on the 8” wheel. I’ve seen several with it and have not heard of any issues. Some people use steel wheels from 90’s Camaros or aftermarket steelies for a 7” option. I’d steer clear of any non-LR alloys though there some BMW wheels that will fit

    LR4 Factory Locker Swap

    This will be fun to follow and I wish you the best of luck. I’ve got to ask - are you an electrical engineer? You seem pretty comfortable and organized in taking on this task!

    Help; expedition rack on LR3 missing mounting hardware. Any alternatives tried.

    I’ve found a few solutions utilizing a full length roof rails with some rectangular plate and hardware in the tracks of the rack. It’s a pretty easy solution for anyone else out there wondering

    Help; expedition rack on LR3 missing mounting hardware. Any alternatives tried.

    Wanted to bring this to the top. Similar to the OP I have found a killer deal on however it has no hardware to attach to the roof. I’ve done a search and can’t find any hardware kits available which doesn’t surprise me. Does anyone have the specs on what size and quantity hardware is required? I...

    Is buying a Discovery II a bad idea?

    Buying a D2 is not a bad idea if you like to tinker and turn wrenches. A $500 D2 will more than likely be a bad idea. They can be enjoyable vehicles for the right person (I’ve owned two) but one at that price will be a nightmare IMO. Given they’re so cheap, find a nice, well maintained example...

    air suspension problems

    I would add that if it falls under one of the above valve block scenarios and a rebuild does not fix it, do not rule out the valve block. The block can be leaking internally and back to the compressor. This happened on mine and I’ve read of several similar accounts

    New Defender Rage/Hate Thread

    No disrespect but the photos you show only restate how it was done incorrectly. Tried to convince myself to like it but with the Bronco release I realize what a turd it is. Holier than thou Magovern botched the design along with place in the market. It could’ve struck a middle ground, more...
