    Anyone running Tuffant steel wheels yet?

    I have the same tuffants. they are beastly, the reason i bought them was the load rating, steel just have higher load ratings i think those are ~4000lbs around so when your offroading or rock crawling and say the whole cars weight would be on one wheel it would still collapse. However thats an...

That will be good tool parts and towing supply storage which is currenly jammed under my seat, glove compartment, mid console storage, and those rear side storage compartments. Strangely everything fits into those as well but ts a bit...

    "Unusual" preventive maintenance?

    Another soft time item on the LR3 is actually the starter and alternator. While you never know when they fail, they will and that will basically leave you stranded anywhere. so my approach is: 1. ~150,000 replace alternator, starter, earlier if you been going through car batteries every 2...

    Storage Mod

    Was thinking about doing the same! A few questions if you dont mind sharing: PNs on ebay examples? Was it hard to remove third row seat (any airbag connections etc) Once removed is there any cutting welding involved Are you running a full size spare or a donut spare? Does the LR4 also have...

    LR3 Seat Rock Fix

    Which seat and what type of motion are you experiencing? Any pictures of the cable, cable attachment? This summer i was going to fix a sliding forward issue which is due to worn plastic washers in the rail forward and aft rotating cork screw. Probably not your issue.

    LR3 2008 Suspension Height Sensor Linkage

    For the front and rear I am adjusting the connecting rods on my LR3 to stock OEM length. The issue is I threw out the OEM links those that connect the sensor to the wishbones on the car and that can be removed (have those thick rubber grommets). Could any of you help me out for the rear and...

    Replaced rear diff pinion seal, drive shaft and breather

    I found the breather line at the fuel filler neck, no filter on mine either and spliced a new line to it and routed it over the rear passenger wheel well, along the lower side board where the aft heater lines run along, over the front passenger wheel well and along the front lower engine metal...

    Replaced rear diff pinion seal, drive shaft and breather

    I read something very similar in an offroad manual, it said check your differential fluid after you finish your wading trip or day for water contamination. Have you had experience with any contamination or water getting into the Landover Differentials? I wonder what a quick check would look...

    2012 headlamp lens replacements

    Hey I have had much luck with the 3M type scratch removal liquid. Using a drill with a polishing pad. There is a plastic lens clear coat spray you can apply after which seems to hold up ok (used on my friends BMW lenses), also I took my LR3 lights to a car tinting shop they buffed up mine and...

    Replaced rear diff pinion seal, drive shaft and breather

    Great suggestion as those lines aren't wear or temperature resistant. I'll give it a try next weekend maybe take pictures.

    One other question on the splash shield are you talking about the wheel well liner or something else?

    Replaced rear diff pinion seal, drive shaft and breather

    Fantastic that was super helpful and the first time I have actually seen somebody state and know where it is! I'll likely just use the existing line and extend it, the little filter cap they have on those positive pressure relief lines can cause a vacuum I believe since they are one way and...

    Increase mileage on LR3

    Btw I was able to restore my fuel efficiency after getting new catalytic converters mostly, the roof rack is next for me to install a aerodynamic fairing in the front, then maybe somehow lower the car when doing only highway driving since I have lift rods installed, the xlifter plugin computer...

    Replaced rear diff pinion seal, drive shaft and breather

    Hey I do have a question we're is the rear differential breather and filter. How would you access them, do you need to remove anything while the differential is installed to access the breather line? Primarily I am doing wading improvements and want to raise the location of all the breather...

    LR3 BMS Reset for Battery AGM Charging

    Probably lasts because your very diligent about the charging. That seems to help especially when you do short trips like what I take typically 3mi trips 2-3 times a day. I was thinking about buying a LiFePO4 type battery because they charge faster, I think they can take up to 20Amps charging...

    Battery Issue? AGM Lifetime?

    Ah ok that answers my question, i was also mainly curious about the repair mode/ desulfization mode. I need to set myself a calendar reminder to charge it ~ 2 Months or so. I am intrigued about that add on self powered system.

    LR3 BMS Reset for Battery AGM Charging

    Update here I killed my H8 AGM because I learned later on AGM are essentially not compatible with LR3s unless you want to kill your batteries early use Regular Flooded Cell batteries 8)!

    Battery Issue? AGM Lifetime?

    It's crazy that a 1994 VW Golf II probably had a better and more reliable charging system hah. That should have been a Landrover Recall considering Millions of Batteries that all died premature deaths in the LR3 8)!
