I remember, barely... :) That was almost 10 years ago, when 300hp seemed adequate for an SUV. Today, a base Ford Explorer makes about 300hp, and it's nowhere near the porky gross weight of the LR4. The V6 S/C sounds perfectly appropriate for the slimmed down 2014 Range Rover and new RRS, both of...

If those reports are true, I hope the S/C V6 will be offered as a (cheaper) engine for the base LR4 trim, not as the sole replacement for the V8 in North America. Unlike the new Sport and Range Rover, the LR4 hasn't gone on a "diet" yet. Until a lighter platform comes out and the model sheds...

I installed an Optima YellowTop D34 with the Traxide kit in that space on my 2013 LR4 V8 petrol, same mod with the TC module as illustrated above. Some photos:

Thanks. I thought about that, but I don't use the fridge so much to warrant a hardwire job honestly... Plus, with all these extra 12v outlets that came with my Traxide aux battery kit (I have a LR4), I almost feel bad not using them for something, lol.

The 12v plug that Blue Sea sells mates very securely with their marine sockets, it's almost impossible to accidentally knock it off once you twist it in place. I just used one to replace the crappy plug at the end of the power cord of my Edgestar refrigerator, which would often come loose just...

He added 1.25" spacers to clear the larger calipers of the LR4 with 18" LR3 wheels. Back up about 17 pages. :)

I believe Tactical will be coming out with a sump plate for the LR3/4 eventually, but probably not going to happen just yet. Last time I was there to get the rock sliders fitted on my LR4, they did take a good look at the front end and they did have a Mantec OEM plate for the LR3 in their shop...

Jeep has got its own identity problems.

Not really, at least on the RRS forum (where I usually hang out) 90% of the members appear to be from the US. ChaseN, my 2006 RRS is only mildly modified for overlanding... 18" rims with larger tires like yours, plus a set of RS sliders and Llams electronic height controller to lift the...

The RRS (up to MY2013 anyway) is really an LR3/4 in disguise, just more compact and easier to park. :) It has every bit of capability off road as the LR3/4, and in certain trims it is a much better performer on road, models equipped with Dynamic Response for example. It's really a great, and...

Last weekend I installed a Traxide dual battery kit on my 2013 LR4. The kit is identical to the one many have already installed on their LR3, the only hiccup on the LR4 is that the auxiliary battery tray in the engine bay is presently "occupied" by a large plastic box containing the transfer...

She's a beauty. I recognize the Llams switch on the LH of the steering column. I had to mount mine on the right side, same location (we have the electric steering wheel adjustment switch on the left here.) However, I did hide the red function button away, under the steering wheel on the rubber...

I don't think either tires are available in that size here in the US, unfortunately.

In my experience (I went through 3 sets of 285/60R18s Coopers LTZs on my 2006 Sport before switching to Yoko Geolandar AT-S), they start out real quiet, but do get noticeably noisier after 10-15K miles. Nothing annoying, but it depends on your level of tolerance... You'll definitely hear the...

Tactical 4x4 successfully modified the AMK compressor bracket and their LH slider for my 2013 LR4 (or any LR3/4 retrofitted with the updated AMK compressor.) Took some photos yesterday as the parts were being fitted. They also installed the fuel tank skid plate. Their LR3 transfer case plate...

That looks great adi! I recognize the 18" Compomotive wheels, but what type / size tires do you have on? Does the front license plate flip down to cover the winch and reveal another license plate, like a James Bond movie? :) Would be great to see a side shot of that commercial rear end, they...

The 2014 Sport should share the same lightweight aluminum platform of the new Range Rover, so it should be considerably (800-1000 lbs?) lighter than the outgoing model and pack most of the toys of its big brother, including the new "smart" Terrain Response system, revised EAS, a new-for-2014...

The guy who posted the leaked photos works for a tint shop and claims he tinted all windows 20%, as well as the headlights, for a TV commercial to be shot in NYC the last week of February. Also, according to the same source that's an Autobiography Edition, so more than likely wearing a unique...

Only available from the UK AFAIK. Not that it would make much of a difference I guess... Once they ship, the wheels arrive in a couple of days (mine were black, which is not a stock item. Took about 10-15 days to manufacture and ship.)
