    Repost w photos, $1000 4x lr3 19" wheels n tires, less than 500mi, tpms, stock tires, Cary NC

    Yes, new old stock basically. This includes the tire pressure sensors mounted inside and mounted tires, original set of 4. You could also have the temp spare never used. Goodyear HP 255/55-19 tires as from factory. Stored indoor out of sunlight etc and have maybe 500 miles. ~$1000 seems like...

    New LR4, Old LR3...what to do?

    LOL. Love it but I also should've been more specific in my meaning of loose dirt or mulch. That's awesome. I'd load that into an lr3,4 or disco 5 without hesitation.

    Is a d5 a great deal right now?

    The D5 I poked around in did not have 3 section split 2nd row seating. Thus, you cannot just pop out the center seat to drop a fridge into. Also, no, they did not fold flat into the floor level like the lr3/4.

    Everything about tires for LR4/ LR3 with 18" wheels

    What the heck are you talking about? The driver side intake is right there, just as it should be. Of course it's an lr4 dude, why would anyone with an lr3 change out fenders, bumper, grill, etc, etc and use compo wheels? Maybe you wrote while drinking... ;) I too am curious about the...

    New LR4, Old LR3...what to do?

    I find this "beater" truck stuff silly. Most people use their only rover for all the purposes and nobody is going to want to try hauling a yard of mulch inside it anyway. "animals, camping..." what kind of nasty 'tough mudder' style camping and wild boars or fresh kill deer are you people...

    New LR4, Old LR3...what to do?

    Unfortunately, an 06 lr3 is only worth about $10k or less now, even $6k. I understand the thoughts you're having. I'd not put any more into it. Resale will still be about the same regardless.

    18" Wheels - EVO CORSE DAKARZERO

    You should know that would depend entirely on the tire chosen. Stock size, not chance to rub, 34" like I have, you wouldn't be able to drive a stock lr4. So, some care will be needed in choosing a tire and brand as some like BFG run a little small which can actually help such as when choosing...

    TRIM ON A LR3

    i used the new black stuff from atlantic british i think, 2 coats, and it looks fine for a few yrs. however, a pro body shop could paint them to match and would be very sweet. i would not DIY that one as it could actually look worse.

    There are several types of "trim" on these so what exactly are you talking about?

    285/60R18 Truth or Fiction?

    I used 285/60-18 nitto terra grappler as my first tire on a factory 18x8. no rubbing and it fit fine in spare space with that shield removed. No rubbing up front on stock bumper/fender liner, but it's possible the tiny difference in offset allowed this. 53 on an 8" vs your idea of 45 ET on an...

    Dang spam bots

    Exactly, and also a pretty boring hack if it were ;) But wow that shit was prolific hitting every page.

    L319 vs. L462...

    Yeah I recall the lr3 having about 13" rear wheel range and 10.6 sounds about right for the front.

    Need hitch for 2009 RRS please help

    Not sure but I know the wiring I installed was easy and was designed to plug directly into the system for trailer control and the vehicle will behave safer. Try Atlantic British for towing parts, maybe they have stuff that works but cheaper than a dealer.

    Need hitch for 2009 RRS please help

    that will be inferior IMO. if curt wiring doesn't plug right in behind the left rear lamp like the factory kit, i wouldn't want to use it.

    Need hitch for 2009 RRS please help

    the best choice is just use the factory receiver. Nothing is really any cheaper but anything else is way more complicated to install. You can find used factory quick release units for not too much $

    LR3 Wet Driver's side carpet

    I would pull the cowling off to inspect both sides. There is a long tray below the natural drip edge of the glass bottom edge. this area more or less dumps right into the venting to the inside. it's dumb design but that's where i would start. Now I will add that in my bmw the driver side...

    275/65R18 GY MT-R or Discoverer STT mud

    If you meant end of the life of the tire, then it was also considerably smaller so rubbing should certainly have been gone by then anyway. The rear fender liner bump fix: the best way is to just cut it out to flat area, then rivet on a flat piece of similar plastic or rubber. I have actually...

    Yeah but you get extra points for going with the 265/70 ! ;)

    $1,200 shipping bill for roof rack.

    To reiterate, NO, this is not the "question" ;) The question is 'who is contacting you?' What it does cost to ship the rack is actually 100% irrelevant. I don't care if someone is asking you to cough up $1 $100 or $1000, they might as well ask for $100M. If I were you I would gently...

    $1,200 shipping bill for roof rack.

    You aren't being clear here. Yo usaid "said bill" what bill, who's bill, the carriers bill to the vendor you bought from? And stop with the "well known" secrecy. What brand and what seller? What it sounds like you are proposing is going on is the crazies thing I have ever heard of regarding...

    Transmission Fault

    I had this but do not recall the solution. I am pretty sure it wasn't a new transmission though! "shifter box" ? The no sport mode symptom ought to be a tell for a rover tech to know what's wrong or at least where to start testing.
