Okay, here is what I have found out so far. Please, anyone who has requisite knowledge on any of these numbers please pipe in. None of us need any rumor-ville because believe me, the Aussie community has that part covered on the X5 wheel set up. Anywho, these are the numbers I have found to...

Thanks @morrisdl correct I’ve been on 17” LR Wheels and KM2s for a while now and love it. I’ll keep you posted on the BMW wheel progress. Casual viewers can scroll around the build thread for details and my opinions on the switch to V6 brakes. Cheers!

Bleeding on mine took quite a while. Once I fill it, I get it up to temperature and then crack the bleeder and reservoir screw and let it run while watching the temps. I then close it, drive it around for a few miles and come home and do it all over again. Generally, most of the air will work...

@Jwestpro What awning enclosure is that?

I picked up a set of five X5 wheels for Victory yesterday. I've been reading over the Aussie threads on this mod and they should bolt right up. I am waiting to confirm the load rating on these as I have heard everything from 800 to 1200, both of which should be okay. I'd prefer to get another...

Sweet set up! Any problems getting the head unit in the place where the old one was installed?

I'm all about lockers and when my diff blows up, I'll upgrade with ARB's; just don't want to crack into a good system when I have other things going. I think all of us agree that lockers are awesome, just an initial purchase requirement that I would pass up a great deal on a well-maintained...

Interesting! I'm curious to see the fit in person when you get it put on, I'll make the run up to check it out!

Agreed!

Wheel bearings for one. I had less than 11k miles on bearings, one was worn really bad and the other starting. I was running some fairly heavy weights so that extra moment put on the bearing face is the likely suspect for premature wear. Additionally, I lost suspension and steering travel...

I'm sure not into forum disagreements and all that hoopla. I wasn't intending on not offering an opinion, just offering the "science" behind suspension and wheel designs and my personal experience. My opinion is: I don't use them because I have my opinions on them due to my research and...

Mine's on the shelf awaiting those last thousand miles before the next oil change! They were out of stock for quite a while on Amazon but I found one on FleaBay and snatched it up a while back. I've had them on all my vehicles too. The best part about this is it protected under the skid plate...

I can't speak to the Compomotives but I do not believe they require spacers!!!???? I can't imagine a great company like Compomotive designing a wheel that needs a spacer so I am going to use my best judgment and say they do not! On the answer to your driveline question, ABSOLUTELY if the...

Genius!

Yeah man, that is garbage! Maybe you can get the mechanic to contact Denver dude and see if you can verify some damage at install and see if they will make it right on your cost you spent with them??!!??!! At this point, I would check everything that rotates from the transfer case back to the...

@Ray_G Great info! Thanks a million!

Are you bolting yours together or is the friction lock on the fittings enough when you hammer them on? The reason I ask is that I am looking to get the basic platform down in the next few weeks and then be able to modify as I need to for the drawer system I want to build. I need to have the...

Agreed! If I found an LR4 for $15k, my spidey senses would be punching me in the face and kicking me in the n*ts! Could be the deal of a lifetime, but, I would have to question that price through and through!

hmmmmmmm, sorry for the misfortune! At this point, I would hate to ask this but are you sure they swapped the differential out? I don't remember what you mentioned about the dealer but are they reputable? Is the noise resonating from the exhaust? Is the noise for sure coming from the rear of...

Can you share your communication set up on the Disco3/4 communication thread? I'm stuck between the ICOM 4100 or the 5100 and not sure which I want. 4100 seems to interface with iOS where the 5100 does not. Or so advertised!
