Moab Trail Ratings
Hey all. I'm getting excited for a trip to Moab this spring. I noticed this page with off-road ratings for Moab trails: http://www.utah.com/offroad/moab_trail_ratings.htm For those that have been to Moab, I am just wondering what sort of trails you have tackled and with what equipment... -

Nitto Terra Grappler 255/60/18
I have a couple of concerns based on the reviews I've been able to find: 1. Not lasting long on heavy vehicles (e.g., LR3). 2. Not performing well in slush/snow The second one is tough, because the reviews I've read are on completely opposite ends of the spectrum. Some say the tires are... -

Nitto Terra Grappler 255/60/18
fwiw, these Nittos do have an S speed rating. The LR3 manual says to use H or V. The load index of the tire is 112, though, which meets the manual secs. -

Nitto Terra Grappler 255/60/18
That's the thing... It's a mom-mobile during the week and we take it offroad occasionally on the weekends. Hoping for at least one Moab trip this year. -

Nitto Terra Grappler 255/60/18
I just noticed that Discount Tire has the Nitto Terra Grapplers in 255/60/18 (stock dia). Is this something new? I haven't seen any talk about this tire in the stock size. I still haven't pulled the trigger on a new set of tires, and I've got about 24k miles on the stock Goodyears. I got... -

Need Quick Opinons
fwiw, the LR3 manual says to use (depending on the wheel size): 235/70 R17 H with a load index of 111 255/60 R18 H or V with a load index of 112 255/55 R19 H or V with a load index of 111 But few of the tires that are talked about here meet those suggestions. -

LR3 Christmas for me.

Non OEM Hitch Choices
Dang That Curt hitch is pretty cool. I was hoping it would improve the tongue weight situation, but it only increases it to 600lbs. with a more limited towing capacity of 6,000lbs. -

Sweet, congrats. I also have the black on black.. the exterior is a chore to clean, but it looks sharp and I love having the black interior. I have an 06 with 25k miles and I'm still on the original brakes, but they will need changed soon. Hopefully somebody changed yours about 10k miles ago... -

"Whistle" from center console vent area
I was hearing something too, now that I started using the heater. Do you guys hear it back behind the driver's side front tire when you're outside of the vehicle? I could be hearing something different; I don't know if it'd call it a whistle. I only hear it when my fan it blowing on the two... -

Vandalized keyed
I had a professional shop do some touch-up on the edge of my door where some paint had been chipped off, and it looks pretty bad. It's not very noticeable because it's right on the end edge of the door. But I agree with the guys here; touch-up paint just really isn't that good. I use some... -

Warranty Question
Yep, it all depends on when the vehicle went into service. Just call your local Land Rover dealership with the VIN and they should be able to quickly tell you the exact date that the warranty expires. If you can purchase an LR3 with even just a small amount of warranty left, you can then... -

Broke my first part... replacement?
I'm not sure what these are called and I'm not sure when I did this, but I tore one of the plastic (or fiberglass) guards that sit immediately behind the exhaust pipes under the vehicle (when they are running perpendicular to the vehicle). I'm guessing I tore it when I was going through some... -

climate control: heater on auto
Just a quick question. I'm now using the heater for the first time in my 06 SE. One thing I think is weird is that when putting the climate control on "auto," the air only seems to go through the floor. If I try to manually switch the heat to the dash vents (or any other configuration, I... -

Battery dead after off road for 18 months
Wait, I'm confused. Are you saying that if I leave my lights on overnight or something and the battery is dead in the morning I chouldn't jump it and let it idle to charge it back up? What would be the solution--charge it with a trickle charger or something? Or are you just saying that I... -

So while scrolling through eBay listings...
Hrm.. does BajaRacks even have that "LR3 Rack" that's on Columbia Rovers' site? I don't see it on the BajaRacks page (http://www.bajarack.com/). Maybe it's an older model? Maybe I'm just looking int he wrong spot. -

LR3 2005 Key from eBay
same here. I have read in another forum that you can get a key machined that will work to open the door if you lock your expensive/official key in the vehicle. Does anyone know if that is true? I have a friend in the machining business. -

Solution for low aux input level? (iPod)
Resurrecting an old thread... Looking at the pictures of the AudioControl OVERDRIVE device, it looks like it needs 12v power and ground. How did you guys go about doing that that?
