What did you do to your LR3 today?
Haha...yep, that is just about what we kept saying. Also, my best friend who is named Bobby was traveling with us, so you can only imagine where the jokes went. -Paul -
What did you do to your LR3 today?
Hey Nathan, Bobby's Hole was really no big deal, probably just slightly more difficult than Elephant Hill (we did them both on the same day). There was one section that had some very loose, dry sand just before a very squared off step, and that caused a little wheelspin, but not much else... -
What did you do to your LR3 today?
Several years ago when I got my first LR3, there weren't many racks available (pretty much just the one from the dealer), so I made that one in the pictures. After using it for many, many miles I really wish it had a lower profile, similar to the Hannibal or Fleetrunner racks. Side note - If... -
What did you do to your LR3 today?
Well, this is more like what I did with my LR3 over the last few days, but here are a few quick pictures: We took a small group of Rovers on a tour of Utah this past Friday-Monday. I was leading the group, and have only downloaded pictures from my camera at this point, so I... -
Doesn't work with Fire Fox
I exclusively use FireFox, both at work on a PC (am using it right now) and at home on my Macs, and have never had any issues. CMG, are you sure it's not some sort of browser setting on your machine (i.e. security is locked down too tight)? Have you upgraded your FF version recently? FireFox...- pvangura

Yeah, I suppose sill protectors would be a little more accurate for both of us. I've got the Rastas (thanks nwoods!), and he's got the High Countrys. -
Parking Brake Lock-Up
Yeah, this is one of those LR gremlins that creeps it's way into some vehicles with no easy fix. Sorry to hear about your problem, and I hope LR does the right thing...they usually do for me! Seriously. It's like they were just looking for an excuse to add another electronic gadget. Not to... -
Parking Brake Lock-Up
Sounds like you have the dreaded "EPB failure" issue that seems to be much more common on UK spec vehicles. There's some info on it collected in this thread at the Disco3 forum: http://disco3.co.uk/forum/topic43189.html?highlight=epb Also, I'd do a search for "EPB" or "Electronic Park... -
suspension fault
I was actually having a fairly similar problem about 2 weeks ago, however all of my faults occurred while off road (several amber faults, a red one and lots of "suspension raising slowly" messages). Took it in to my dealer, who ran diagnostics and found a corroded sensor on the transfer case... -
The obligatory "Show off your LR3' thread
Yup, his MTR is about a 30.5" tire, while mine is around 31.5". The GY is more aggressive, but the Nitto is wider (a little more than an inch) and has a bigger footprint and sidewall area. I have much more seat time than he does though, so I would say that is going to be the deciding... -
The obligatory "Show off your LR3' thread
It's actually pretty similar to mine. The main differences between the trucks are: 1. Mine is a year newer (07 vs. 06) 2. He has 2 more skid plates underneath than me 3. We have different sliders 4. He runs the 19" rim with Goodyear MTRs, and I am on 18s with Nittos (mine are a little... -

I'll actually have the opportunity to do this in about two weeks. Taking my truck (no rear locker) and my brother in laws truck (with locker) around Utah. We'll see who has trouble with what... -
The obligatory "Show off your LR3' thread
My buddy Pete grabbed my mini HD cam and recorded this, then it died. No other video from my camera, but Jeff has a short one of your truck. Thanks! I do not have the HD package. Haven't encountered a situation where the rear locker was necessary yet. -Paul -

Here's a quick video of my truck from Lefthand Canyon yesterday...this obstacle is called "The Squeeze", but the tree that caused the real squeeze has been removed. Now it's just a muddy, rocky, rutted out mess. YouTube- LefhandCanyon The Squeeze -Paul -
Help convincing wife in taking LR3 offroad
I'm also close to 30, been married about a year to a woman who also enjoys things like shopping at Nordstrom, going to the spa and hating everything about the outdoors. I wheel my LR3 almost every weekend, and my wife has no desire to go with me. I set the expectation that I would not give up my... -
On board air (cheap)
Matt (I feel silly saying "BldrRvr" since I know you...haha), I recently installed a similar setup to Nathan's, with a small compressor mounted in the spare battery compartment. I picked up the compressor at High Country 4x4 down here in Denver for around $85. It's a 150PSI unit, and it seems... -
Metburry Gulch, Co 5/8/10
J.D. - I never ran those trails pre-fire, so I can't really speak to that. What I can say is that without any trees to hold back the runoff, Metberry had a creek running right down the middle of the trail in a lot of places. As you could imagine, this is causing some pretty nasty erosion and...- pvangura

Metburry Gulch, Co 5/8/10
I would be the guy in the blue shirt...just trying to make sure we didn't screw up someone's new LR4. Yes, I did nearly bust my ass many times (it was slippery, and I'm a little clumsy anyway). For what it's worth, I didn't notice any (new) scrapes or scratches on my rig :biggrin:. I'd say...- pvangura

Rocky Mountain summertime trails.
Alright, so it looks like we have a few people interested, both here and on the Solihull forum (looks like we could have a possible total of 6 trucks). The plan will be to meet around 8:45 in Westcreek at the turnoff for CO 68/Stump Rd (intersection with Westcreek Rd/CO 73). Rather than follow...- pvangura

The obligatory "Show off your LR3' thread
Thanks everyone. jesus_man - We ran China Wall last weekend. Apparently, what they bulldozed was the large, narrow hill near the end of the trail. When we got to that portion of the trail, a bunch of people remarked that what was once the most difficult part of the trail is now almost a... -

Glad you guys like it... That is the GN Vehicle Protection sump guard. I just recently got it, and I've been quite happy with it so far. Here are a couple more, since I got a decent reaction :biggrin: Metberry Gulch: (In) Jenny Creek: More China Wall: While I'm at it... -
