Selling the LR4
I completely agree with the group therapy angle. I have thought more than once that I enjoy posting here to a group of LR4 enthusiasts just to knock ideas around. Sort of like sitting around over a beer with like minded folk. -
Selling the LR4
Always a bit mystified by sellers struggling to come up with an asking price for the mighty LR4. I know as well as anyone that it becomes a good friend over the years but still… I’ve had my 2012 on the ‘sell block’ before and pulled it back off, but you need to find a price you can live with and... -
At Long Last... Modern head unit!
The Pioneer unit I have does a good job. Better screen, better audio… CarPlay connects most of the time. You do lose most of the 4x4 screen functions and the internal clock is a challenge to keep on time (Pioneer HU has all the time you need), but for 99% of what I use daily, significant... -
Crazy to add Tactical Rear bumper at 104k?
Really great input all. I don’t have any problem installing myself now that I hear what’s involved. I’m not in the perfect situation currently, ‘garage wise’, but I have a lift that will do the job and I’m sure I can cajole a buddy into helping. FYI… the indy LR shop is saying labor will be... -
Showoff Your LR4
Going to the 18s and the KO2s 265/65 has made for an even better snow machine. -

Crazy to add Tactical Rear bumper at 104k?
I had a brief moment of madness when I thought I would sell the LR4 and get a Defender… it passed. I see it having a life as a treasured third vehicle down the road - ready for select adventures throughout the Rockies. I drove it from Colorado to the east coast and back last October - bit of a... -

An hour total? This includes removal of the original bumper? Local LR indy shop must be charging close to 1.5 days labor -

Yes, some great access out this way and the 4x4 look is quite a bit more common in these parts. You having done the chain(s) would be a big relief. If I just do it myself that makes it a lot more tolerable. Anyone ever use a hitch mount for a dirt bike with the Tactical? I’m guessing it’s... -

Hmmm… I had no idea it was that easy. I would be doing it by myself as well. That would make a big difference. This is why I throw things out here -

Yea, well, I’m not putting this on myself and labor is the equal of the parts so… it’ll be in that range. -

It’s definitely a ‘gut’ call but sometimes throwing it out there to this group yields new insights. The ‘investment’ in the rear bumper is in the 25% of total vehicle worth category I think. It’s a great adventure vehicle, no doubt. -
Crazy to add Tactical Rear bumper at 104k?
Woukd be interested in hearing thoughts on spending an easy $4k on a Tactical 4x4 rear bumper and tire carrier. My LR4 has been super low maintenance and reliable but she’s getting up there in miles. Am I nuts to make this investment now (I really like the Tactical offering and woukd like to get... -
LR4 Halogen Bulb Upgrading - Highly Recommended
A good thread never dies… I just replaced the fogs and the low beams with the Phillips Crystal Vision H11s and what an improvement! After 10 years it was time for a refresh. Thanks to all who contributed on this thread.
