    VIDEO: LR3 Front and Center Console Removal and HAM Radio Install

    It would be important to note for anyone else wanting to install a HAM antenna or CB, that the roof rail is not grounded. You will need to run a ground strap to the body. I am going to post a couple of pictures later. If you don't have a good antenna ground, you may have problems High SWR...

    VIDEO: LR3 Front and Center Console Removal and HAM Radio Install

    Wow, what a generous offer. That would be great, then I will know it is precisely the right one. I am curious, as you cannot make it out in the picture, how is it attached to the roof rail. I will PM you my e-mail address. Thanks

    VIDEO: LR3 Front and Center Console Removal and HAM Radio Install

    Excellent work, and thank you for the additional info. There is a frys here in town, I will take a look. I am trying to mount a Yaesu ATAS 120A, http://www.universal-radio.com/catalog/hamhf/45470450.html The ATAS-120, on the bottom, emulates a PL-259 ("UHF") connector, so the mount needs to...

    Nice video! I would be particularly interested what you used for antenna mounts.

    Would this winch work on LR3?

    I've got the XD9000. It seems like figuring out how you plan on mounting it, and powering it are equally important questions. In the end, the winch is a small part of it, albeit an important one. You can consider winch trays, winch bumpers and so on. Consider ringing up Justin @ lucky8 and...

    Error Messages LR3 2006

    +1 on the Battery and Brake Light switch. Sounds like the problem. I do not suggest throwing just any battery in it. There should be a way to import it if needed, perhaps coordinating with the Brits over there. I would imagine they are bringing in parts by the plane load to keep their vehicles...

    Tire Size Advice Please

    There are settings in the computer that you put in your tire sizes. I assume from there that the computer automatically calculates your speed from there. My speedometer is dead on. A dealer should be able to edit these values. I used a MSV-2 to do it.

    Some key fob help...

    There is one in Georgetown that charged 15.00 bucks-- pm me with your e-mail address. I haven't visited all the ones I wanted to check out in Austin, but the one I did visit wanted 45.00 and their machine was broken... so I passed on them.

    2008 LR3 HDC,special programs faults-rear differential motor

    You can pick up rebuild parts, motor, or the diff at lucky8 at decent prices. The locking diff is more expensive than the open diff. The 1600 sounds like an open diff price.

    programming garage door opener

    There is no mention here of telling the garage door you are adding a device. You need to push the button on the garage door unit to put it into the mode to receive a new remote device. Then follow the procedure on the Rover.. It worked for me after a few minutes on fiddling around and has held...

    LR4 Second Battery Install

    Nice work, look like the Traxide unit, good stuff. On the rear sockets, I installed them in a neat little spot which is better than the recommended location. www. disco3. co. uk/ gallery/thumbnails.php?album=21899

    Tire Size Advice Please

    Yes, I reset the computer to match. It's been so long I couldn't tell you, originally seems like it was 18-20. Now i'm at 14-16. I also have a lot more miles on it, but generally everything is in tip top shape.

    Tire Size Advice Please

    I am debating going back to a narrower tire due to the apparent adverse effect on mileage of my 285, May go to 275 and see if there is an improvement, unless I find a willing victim to swap wheels for a week to see if it makes a difference for both of us.

    Lower Control Arm Bushings

    I don't think it's fair to compare my prices, because I did a ton of other work at the same time. The lower arms are about 225.00 each. I also did upper arms, rear upper / lower bushes, rear wheel bearings, rebuilt dampers (fitted koni FSD) rebuilt my front diff, replaced cv joints, boots...

    2008 LR3 HDC,special programs faults-rear differential motor

    Well, it would be pretty dishonest to buy a warranty when something is broken. You can get the diff motor for a reasonable price from Justin & Lucky8. He also has reman differentials, and rebuild kits. A few K would be a whole diff at LR. There is a shop in the LA area that has rebuilt a...
