LOL... humor is so hard to write. And so easily misconstrued on forums. :26_13_1:

Winch is handy to pull other folks out though. I don't necessarily want the bling, but I won't hold it against you if I need your help. To each his own, I agree factor 55 may be bling, but we all have our own choices.

Yes, Land Rover is renowned for their electronic prowess, wait, whats that, three amigos, suspension fault, on the bump stops. What's this blue tape holding together. LOL.. Maybe they could focus their energy on something useful like addressing the known repeat offenders and have a truly...

Agreed!!

Quite a few folks from TX Rovers are going.

Thanks... I did all my battery wires, so this is a welcome update. More pictures here.

The only one I had go out, was due to the brake place not staking the nut. It worked loose and ruined the bearing, about 70k if I recall. I subsequently redid the entire suspension at 90k and saved that one for a spare. Just sent it to a friend who had one go out, right front as well.

I got that protector in today, wow, it seems really really small, are you sure that is the right size. I ordered the translucent so you could actually see the air lines... I'll probably have left over. I ordered 2 50' rolls 1/16" 1/2" 1/32" Black, Translucent 7432K111

This is quite typical. I would have suggested a new Deka 9A49 AGM intimidator. Average with those green ones have been 2 years.

Absolutely, but mounting them without an air gap will also make the performance drop faster. It still works though, so either way that works for your application.

While you are fiddling with air leaks and such it would be worthwhile to have a look at this thread if you have not already. http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/121125-An-airline-rupture-isolation-valves-and-changed-bump-stops It addresses some areas worth looking at for potential...

I did notice a good improvement in performance when I mounted with plenty of air space underneath it. If it is possible, it would be nice to have an air space.

If I did it again, I would have done the 60.. Just for the extra capacity. The 45 has been stellar though, so you can't go wrong with either one, unless you are planning on running Ham radio while charging..

The lower Suspension are ball joint can be changed on the the suspension arm, or you can change the whole arm that comes with the ball joint. The inner / outer steering joints come as a complete kit.. I'd be suspicious of a wheel bearing (hub assembly) or CV joint. Keep us posted.

I think the description and dimensions of the go power more closely match the Grape Solar I described. I'm not sure about driving on it, never considered it.

There are subtle differences in them. The GS one pictured is an older one. I really like the Grape Solar which replaced that one, it's more rigid, ie:thicker and has bigger grommet holes. The performance has been stellar. I would talk to them directly or confirm with the seller first. The...

Very cool, I'm also very pleased with my DBS and 100W solar. 120 is better, or as much as you have room for. I am running a fridge as well with no problems. No movies, but HAM radio and it is great.

I ordered 2 50' rolls of the extreme translucent. I'll probably have some left over..

My experience has been that you can do just as well by assembling the best bits of all components on your own without the shortcomings most "kits" come with. If you don't have the skill, time or inclination to build it yourself, remember bigger is better.

I think this is a fun thing to experiment with. Where it may be used more, from what I have seen is on boats who go far off shore. These are situations where, a single position update every couple of days are acceptable, so it isn't an issue. I have no idea how it will work mobile, but to be...
