    Lego Land Rover needs your support!

    Do they leak fluids too? ;-) Great idea - I built my LR3 for my son 4 years ago and he still kept it in tack.

    Lexus GX470 vs. LR3 (overland rig)

    I overland my LR3 with a Lexus GX and Rubicon Unlimited at least a couple times a year. Both the Lexus and Wrangler owners drool over the LR3 fold flat seats and no rear wheelwell intrusions for sleeping. I keep up just fine in all terrain and surprisingly have proved the most reliable...

    Super Loaded LR3 Control Arm Questions

    I think you need an alignment after control arms are replaced. I suggest using a good Land rover dealership for alignments (not an indy shop).

    LR3 OEM Locker intsall, is it possible?

    I have seen a non-HD LR3 (without ARB locker) break rear drive shaft on local trails. So it can happen. The HD-LR3s turn the locker on/off frequently and no predicting if it happens while a wheel is spinning. That might be the need for beefier shafts. I always turn on my ARB locker...

    LR3 OEM Locker intsall, is it possible?

    I have an LR3 with ARB rear Locker. I agree with all said above about priorities, even though Im lacking the winch. I have been ridding with HD-LR3's and the way it walked less strenuously over obstacles convinced me to add a rear locker. It works exactly as I hoped. The HD conversion and ARB...

    Lucky8’s Project Discovery 3

    Id be up for a set. Would be more economical to ship a pallet full of them. The price might be double, but still worth checking to see if the US LR dealers can source these. Anyone know the part number for the 17" wheel?

    2007 LR3 V6 - curb weight 5,787 lbs 2007 Lr3 V8 - curb weight 5,796 lbs If I was still into towing a boat or camper, I would stay with V8 breaks but its NOT a safety issue.

    LR3 Tire Decision Time

    2nd the duratracs 275/65/18 LT recommendation. On my 2nd set. Probably will get a 3rd. A 50% worn one will fit under the truck. LR3 runs standard height (no lift) most days no rubbing. Good at everything, but staying quiet. 1st half of the tread wear is good, but the 2nd half growls. These...

    New product from Proud Rhino! The SYA Off Road Extension Kit

    I wouldnt recommend skipping the straps. With out straps, a wheel can drop below the operating range of your CV joint. The damage would be a VERY BAD day on the trail.
