    LR4 Shock Longevity

    Who knows what is reliable or not. I have the full front strut directly from Bilstein and one grew a crack in the rubber top cap near where the damper rod comes through. The crack is roughly 1/8" away from the damper rod gasket rings. Annoying as hell. Have temporarily fixed it with O-rings...

    LR4 on 33's

    Because it doesn't fit into the fenders. Thus fire roads and trails where a subaru will also join you will be about it. Thus you could just use about any tire and not see how awesome that one is on the more rugged trails.

    How crazy would it be...

    If it is more or less a 100,000 mile interval, then I honestly wouldn't even care. Isn't that roughly when they're needing it?

    How crazy would it be...

    I don't consider a drivetrain as "technological" so in reality, there is little difference. It's not like the lr4 has a bunch of actual 'tech' like the newest models of luxury cars do. Surround view is about the only thing I can think of. Keep in mind, I like the lr4, I had a deal negotiated...

    How crazy would it be...

    Extremely unlikely. Micro market for that even though people like us think it could be cool. There is literally not much bad about the the lr3 motor. The transmission is annoying but it's also just fine. I went through a major period of being so done with the way the transmission shifts but...

    How crazy would it be...

    Don't need a new model to buy a white one. LR4 isn't even the best of the modern discos, the lr3 has the better engine bay for long term reliability and maintenance.

    Planning on swapping trans pan and fluid change...low profile torx recommendations?

    Glad to help. To clarify, I did not swap the torx bolts to allen key/hex, I changed them to basic 6 point bolt heads. This is the lowest profile access based on the tool because you just need a box wrench, ideally ratcheting. Torx or hex female bolts require at least the bits and usually only...

    Rear lights

    i have to ask, what in the hell are you talking about? the d2 rear lamps already are higher than most other vehicles of any type. oh, you mean 'brighter', not "higher", I hope. Your location says England....I suggest you find a UK forum where people have your vehicle. We only have the...

    LR3 LR4 Range Rover Sport - TOOLS thread

    When i repaired filler tubing, the pump, lines, on the 2nd fuel tank, a floor jack was essential. i did it at the same time as the bigger suspension work and used another floor jack that was not as new as the 4 for the big job. yeah, they're like $200 each but you can just pay a shop to do...

    LR3 LR4 Range Rover Sport - TOOLS thread

    tool chests, but also simply solutions, cheap or easy for project carts. i used a plastic bin lid on a lowes blue plastic furniture dolly for 2 years now. it's low, rolls under the cars with me as opposed to an actual cart which would be stuck out beside car... i plan to make a little cart...

    LR3 LR4 Range Rover Sport - TOOLS thread

    i splurged and got 4 floor jacks with 24" reach and 3or better ton rating. i use a small lightweight aluminum for things like raising a hub knuckle or strut bottom as sort of a third hand.
