    Waist seal / door channel removal?

    Is there a way to remove the inner waist seal on the driver and passenger door by itself? This is the piece on the front doors that is actually pressed up against the glass. Not sure how it comes out or if the door panel needs to be removed first. Thanks.

    Rubicon Trail Question

    Any serious off-roaders here ever try the Rubicon Trail with an LR3? Experiences? Mods needed? I live fairly close and would love to try it some day.

    Ugh, New LCA's are just junk!!

    The brand is Allmakes 4x4. I've sent them an email about this part and my issues.

    First of all, this has nothing to do with fitment on the car. It has to do with the part as it is and it exists for both sides. If you take the long shock bolt and simply try to run it through the control arm while it's sitting on the floor, it will not go through. The bolt will need to bend for...

    Aftermarket. Shouldn't make a difference though. Lining up holes is a basic process when making parts like this. I actually bought these from a company that was mentioned on this site.

    Ugh, New LCA's are just junk!!

    Not going to say who I ordered them from...yet. Two problems. One, the shock holes don't line up. Here's what I mean, if you look through the long 'tubed' hole, it should line up perfectly with the stamped hole on the other end of the shock mount. It doesn't, it's about 1/8-3/16" off. I could...

    Will these Wheels fit?

    Isn't oem 6.5" backspacing? Also, what are you going to do about the hub bore on those wheels? How about the poke out? Have you tested your turning clearance?

    Will these Wheels fit?

    Well you'd be going from a 6.5" backspace to a 6" backspace according to that wheels specs. So the inner rim will be a half inch further out (road side) than the original. Now these rims are also a half inch wider than the oem's. So it should stick out an additional inch in total (1/2" wider rim...

    Will these Wheels fit?

    The LR wheel is a 53 P (positive) offset. That's 53 mm from the centerline of the wheel to the mounting pad towards the roadside of the wheel (since it's a positive offset). Backspace is dependent on the width of the wheel. They're saying that it's 6 inches from the mounting pad to the inside...

    Is there a market for the 19" wheel and tire set

    Carid has a nice selection. Not sure yet. Maybe the TR9 Matte Black Wheels by Touren or the Menzari m-sport. I like the matte black look.

    Is there a market for the 19" wheel and tire set

    I'm thinking about going with aftermarket 18" wheels and tires. But I'd like to sell my existing. Are there people interested in these and what kind of money are they commanding? My tires are like new and the wheels are in great shape. I'd also probably want to sell the full size spare with the...
