    Rasta vs Mantec under bumper skid plate??

    I really debated a new bumper vs. the hidden winch. For me, in the end, it came down to: I can go from a hidden winch to a bumper if I do not like it. However, it would not be easy to reverse a RTE/SG bumper to a hidden winch setup. I have an XD 9000 that I am going to wedge up in there when the...

    Alignment with Coopers...

    humm, I was having some uneven wear on my front tires. I just had the local LR dealer do an alignment and then rotated the tires. They did not mention any issues with getting the work done and it seems better now, however still monitoring tire wear.

    Rasta vs Mantec under bumper skid plate??

    I have the Mantec plate on order, I like it over the Rasta as it covers a little more area up front. However, I also ordered the Rasta hidden winch setup to fit a winch up in the bumper. I think they both make some good parts. I was also a little creative with my gas tank and have dented it, I...

    2plus2plus2 - anyone?

    I have kids age 6mo, 3, 5, & 7. We do the smaller ones go on the second row and the older ones love riding in the back because they can see out so easily. We have a rooftop rack and large yakima storage box for the roof where all the luggage goes when we take a trip. It works great for us. Also...

    Making the LR3 trail ready

    Ok I have been watching this thread for a couple of days and it finally got me to inventory what I have added over the last year! I originally took my rover off road several times with the stock tires and our local rally this year had a lot of stock LR3's with stock tires. Guess what the...

    Looking for a 18 in LR3 wheels.

    How many miles did you get on your Coopers? I have about 20k and I don't think I'm going to make it to 30k. I was also thinking of trying something else like the MT/R. How do you like the MT/R's? are they louder than the coopers on the road?

    Spare Tire ???

    I got mine from Amazon, a lot of guys around here use them with good results. You can sometimes find it at Costco for $49. I have had mine mounted in the engine compartment just in front of the spare battery holder for about a year and it works great. I can air up all 4 tires from about 25 psi...

    Spare Tire ???

    I did not buy the full size spare with the original tires so there is some difference in tread wear, roughly 10k miles or a little more. I am just about to next oil change and I am going to see if I can rotate it into service. I actually have another wheel that does not have a tire on it yet. I...

    Spare Tire ???

    I have the coopers and the full size spare. In the spare wheel storage area there are several rubber bumpers that are about an inch or so in height. I took two of these out so that my tire would fit nice and snug in the opening. It barley hangs below the bumper and I have never removed it prior...

    Brake replacement

    I just did my brakes about a month ago and was also concerned about the wrenches that I had fitting. In my case the ones that I had worked just fine so no grinding was needed. It might be worthwhile to check yours first as your mileage may vary. It was pretty easy process overall.

I just bought the 6 year 100k miles for $4,200 including the rebate and a $300 dollar discount for being a costco member. I have a...

    LR3 sway control

When I had the controller installed I also had them weld the little side arm with ball for the tension sway bar. Towing has been great. I took rig...

    Dual battery setup...

    the spare battery is not the same size as primary, it is smaller. I had a friend that had an optima yellow top that he was not using so we made a trade and it has worked great for me. However if I were to buy a battery I have started hearing that interstate makes a really good battery, better...

    Dual battery setup...

    I installed this kit about 4 months ago and it was really easy. I also ran my own cables to the rear to run an Engel fridge. It has worked great and the beauty of this kit is that it keeps both batteries connected until the primary battery voltage drops to something around 12.5 if I remember...
