Roverman; While there are no "modifications" needed ie : welding/ frame cutting etc you will need metric tools (wrenches and hex ) and at least IMO a rack/lift to expedite installation..... the underbumper guard requires installing a bracket with "pop" rivets in the bumper. radiator guards( shoulda kept my mouth shut) need existing holes enlarged and installation of treaded inserts (metric) I'll try to post pics of the various parts later today or tommorrow HTHroverman said:

Underbumper and underbody (behind) installed, these replace the plastic cover and the two steel LR protectors behind it, I still need to install the trans case protection for this unprotected area and I'll post photos when I get done. I know.......... no bling and can't be seen when done but.......***

Anyone know what size tires are on this rig? SE rims? My guess is 285's. Think they'll rub off road if they are 285's? I'm guessing that's what they are.
I just drove my first LR3 HSE today and loved it!
Any help on the tire size would be great. Looking at an HSE and would try to have them trade me for 18" SE rims if the 285's would fit.
I E Mailed the seller to find out more on the tire/ rim set up. I'll post the info. if they respond.
Thanks in advance,
TIm.

Those appear to be the popular Nitto Terra Grappler A/T's, 285/60/18. They don't rub off road, but I have had them rub on one or two occassions ON road when cornering hard. They touch ever so slightly in the rear wheel arch, just forward of the tire, at about 9:00 o'clock as you are looking at the tire.
I was wondering if they weren't the 255 55 18's as they don't look like they fill up the wheel well as much as your pics, nwoods. Or is it just that the pics are in extended mode? Whichever they are, they do look awesome. I will probably have a set soon since goodyear can't get their act together on the silentarmor wranglers. I still don't know what to do about the spare and the size difference.

That's possible, but remember that I am with coil springs and sit a little lower

Yeah, the spare tire issue is causing me a lot of heartburn right now. I can't seem to find a way aroudn spending over $400 for a full size spare, and frankly, I baulk at that.

John, how are your skids holding up? Put them to the test yet? My order has been delayed yet again. Loosing all faith and good will towards BP. Very frustrating.
