Offroad modes and terrain
A few weeks ago I took a training course from 7P in Moab. I have 2014 LR4 with the HD package and 32" tires, Cooper ST/MAXX. The thing I learned and practiced with the ledges in the slickrock was not to attack head-on. Webb had me walk the obstacle and pick a line and angle that got one wheel... -
Crazy to add Tactical Rear bumper at 104k?
The molded plastic clips on the flair itself broke. Tried too hard to force it. The retainer fasteners that connect the flair with the body were beat-up during removal and I have new ones to use on the reinstall. When I pick up the new flairs from the dealer, I will talk with their body... -
Crazy to add Tactical Rear bumper at 104k?
Thanks for the response. Tried a deadblow hammer (gently) and with help from my brother we could not get the flair into the proper position, curve of the flair matching curve in the fender. Unfortunately in our enthusiastic attempts we broke a clip, so I am ordering new flairs. -
Crazy to add Tactical Rear bumper at 104k?
Somewhat on the topic of the Tactical rear bumper. I just installed one over the last 2 days. It mostly went OK, but I have one issue. I am having a big problem getting the rear fender flairs back on. They were hard coming off (2014 with 79K miles) with a fair amount of crud up underneath... -
Overall height with frontrunner?
cbarr, I originally started following the Front Runner install instructions, then discovered after putting in one side rail that I could simply pop out the plugs for factory welded nuts in the roof. The rack bolted in with no problem and I have the factory trim in place. The Front Runner... -
Overall height with frontrunner?
The Front Runner Slim Line rack on my LR4 adds about 4 inches to the height of the car as measured in the center of the roof at the rear tail gate. I have the short version as I wanted to keep the sun roof clear. With 32 inch tires and the 1.5 Johnson rods at access height I can pull into my... -
Crazy to add Tactical Rear bumper at 104k?
I bought a whole package from Tactical last July and it was delivered at the beginning of Dec. Unfortunately the shipper was very careless, looks like they dropped the palette off the fork lift. As I will be installing things outside, I need to wait for good weather (we have snow on the ground)... -

Bolt-on Roof Racks for LR4 Without Rails?
I have the Front Runner rack on my 2014 LR4. It bolts to the factory mounting holes. The instructions indicated that the gasket strip should be trimmed, but that is not needed. You only need to remove the plastic/rubber bolt hole filler insets to bolt the rack on. I chose the short version... -
Speedometer recalibration with IID Tool
Jimmy, Thanks again. I just got off of a support call with iLAND and the iLAND tool cannot do the resize functions of the GAP tool. For basic fault diagnostics and resets it appears OK, but I will get a GAP tool. Lesson Learned. -
Speedometer recalibration with IID Tool
Jimmy, thanks for the IID tool screen images. Your screen images look very different from my iLand tool, so I suspect you are using a different tool. Although I have been through most of the screens on mine, I don't see this. Which tool is this? -
Speedometer recalibration with IID Tool
I just put a set of 18" Compomotives with Cooper ST MAXX LT265/65/18 on my 2014 LR4. I have the iLAND Diagnostic tool. How to set the tire size for accurate speedometer readings is not described in the manual and so far in scrolling through the menus, I have not found the proper place. Any... -
2016 Brake Controller Help
I have a 2014 LR4 and tow a 24ft trailer with a dry weight of 3600 lb. I use a Tekonsha P3 controller and a ProPride hitch with weight distribution. I have used this for 6 years with about 25,000 miles of towing. I am very happy with the combination. It has been extremely stable on the...
