    RCV HD Axles - PSA - Friction point

    Just a PSA. If you install the heavy duty axles from RCV, be sure to cut the lower sway link bolt on the front driver's side as it'll rub and eventually puncture the CV boot when at full articulation. I noticed this as the suspension was fully extended and thank God I did. The only ******...

    SYA Spacer Squeak - Front End Squeak - PSA/FIX

    ***Only applies if you have the SYA Kit on your rig*** I mostly use my LR4 off-road and over the years I've developed squeaks, all of which I've been able to fix. One developed about a year ago that I could not figure out but it had the same signs as a bad sway bar bushing but it wasn't...

    SYA Spacer/Strap kit

    So I purchased the SYA kit from lucky 8. Seems pretty straight forward. However there were 4 brackets that came with it that I have no idea what to do with. 3 are the same, 1 is slightly different. Anyone know?

    Terrain Response and HP/Torque impact

    Went shopping with a friend for a 2010-2013 RRS recently and found out some interesting information. He was torn between the NAV8 and SCV8. I spoke to a good friend of mine who is a tech of 20+ years at LR and when asked which one is better off-road he stated the SCV8 and NAV8 RRS are...

    Bearmach Rear Shelf

    Picked up this shelf from bearmach.com. Used the code "dobbo" to get 10% off. Thought it was a clever item. Super easy install, seems pretty sturdy and I can still see very clearly out my rearview mirror. I've been looking for one of these for a while... The company that made them before...

    LR4 Winch Advice

    I am pulling the trigger on a TR front bumper and wanted to get some input/suggestions on which winch to purchase to go along with it. I know that @mbw @avslash and @NASdiesel all have setups that are similar to what I am gunning for. Do you guys like what you have? Would you do it...

    Undercarriage Maintenance - Tips

    Wanted to get some feedback on how everyone takes care of their LR4s undercarriage as I am curious how everyone else goes about it. I live at the beach and drive on the sand rather often. I do my best to clean under there when I can and also drop my skids and clean a little more in depth after...

    LS SWAP - Yeah... Really

    So this guy in Orlando has successfully swapped a L322 and a RRS with a turbo LS V8...AND... He has managed to do it so that the dash doesn't light up like a Christmas tree and everything functions as intended. I highly suggest following him in Instagram. Super interesting. His Instagram...

    Interior lock button

    How do I remove the interior door lock button? I have a replacement for it... Started by removing the screw behind the handle then tried to use my trim tools to pop off the trim to no avail, and then I thought to myself... Before I break something, let me ask the forum. Any help would be...

    Making a case for the D5

    So my dislike for the D5 is pretty well documented in this forum yet my experience prior to now with the D5 has been limited to a 2 day loaner of a base (literally bare bones) model then a 30 minute off-road test at the LR experience in Asheville this past Summer with a more upgraded HSE model...

    LR4 Mileage Poll

    With the likely disappointment of a new defender, I am wondering how far I can take my 2015 LR4 w/ 60k miles on it. So far, no major issues, but I am interested in seeing how many high mileage rigs there are out there in good working condition. Plus polls are fun.

    Asheville NC - Night Drive - Biltmore

    FYI - There is an owners event at the Biltmore on 2/17 then a day drive on 2/18. You will need to call them at 828-225-1541 in order to sign up and get more details. I believe it's $325 for each event, but that includes food, access to the property/mansion and I think the night drive has a...

    Prospeed Rack

    Put this on earlier in the month and forgot to post. I debated heavily on several racks but since this is my daily driver I went with a low profile option from prospeed. I'm glad I did. There is very little noise (you really have to listen for it.), the floor plates are strong and easy to put...

    Hidden Winch - Voyager Racks

    I was able to spend some time at the voyager tent at Overland Expo East this past weekend and was really impressed with their gear as well as their knowledge of the LR4. They have a super clean hidden winch setup with the controller located under the hood. They also do full installs. I will...

    Short Rails - Install - Fit/Rattling?

    So I put in a set of OEM short rails on my truck and even though I tightened them pretty good, they seem loose and rattle when driving. This tells me I should tighten them up, but before I do I wanted to see if anyone else ran into this, I have them pretty damn tight, going to have to bust out...
