Cold air intake...
I have to admit, I'm a player. IMHO, everyone should be able to get on here and discuss how they are making it "thiers" - the essence of what Americans have been doing to their vehicles since they were invented. Someone mentioned the cost of these LR's. Well, as you drive home tonight, look... -

Cold air intake...
I continue to be amazed at how people on here are so quick to tell you to not try things. -

lr3 transmission problem
Can you give a little better explanation of what you mean by slip? What exactly happens? -

Cold air intake...
As the first responder said - the Rover intakes are designed to be sealed for wading purposes. Face it, for most of us, the only wading you are going to see is from the mist thrown up by the car in front of you on the freeway! If you dont/wont wade with yours, start modifying your stock box... -

$160 oil change?
So, it has appeared to me that most people on this site are what I call "check writers" - they pay someone else to do the work. I dont intend to offend anyone, and I certainly realize that there are manyhere that do their own service work. That being said - for basic oil changes, either... -

Attaching a flag for OHV area use...
Probably the sturdiest way would be to put a reciever hitch on, and mod a reciever and flag pole. I dont think suction cups will stay on, depending on how fast you intend to run. -

Anyone running BFGoodrich All Terrain T/A KO - 265/65/18 ?
Higher load rating is not it. Every load range D and E that I have ever purchased has been all season traction rated. -

One additional note: going to this tire will accentuate any misalignment your rig might have. Just be prepared to spend the additional $ on an alignment. Also, your speedo will be off by 5% (and there is no ability to correct it). -

I have them, and they dont rub (at least not that we have experienced) -

Turning off the Nav
Roverman, dont let those guys discourage you. Its questions like yours that get us innovative and create our own fixes for things. -

Turning off the Nav
Mine requires that I press the settings menu button, then screen off. -

Turning off the Nav
I'd be a little concerned about heat build up when putting a mat over it. I'm no expert on LCD's, but any electronic device emits heat. We, too, get tired of having to turn it off all time - and only use it every once in a while. I turned it down as far as I could, but the glare at night is... -

Suroco Urban Rack
This was my answer to "you cant take it all with you...." This came the weekend after I woke up at 4 am with 2 or three inches of water in the tent while camped on the Washington Coast. My input here is based soley on my observations of what others have done while camping. I have...
