    Refueling out on the trail

    With all the break/fix posts, I thought I'd post something different. How is everyone refueling out on the trail? I'd love to get a Long Range permanent fuel tank, but can't justify over $2k on it and I've been thinking about this since 2015. I used Wavian (jerry) fuel cans and I really hated...

    Easy airing up/down

    Not sure about you guys, but airing up and down takes forever and bending over to do it isn't fun anymore. I decided to put (5) schrader valves (1 at each corner and a single schrader valve up front), dot rated 1/4 od tubing, and (3) 1/4 tee push fit connectors. I also made (4) 24" air line...

    I needed more interior storage and the overhead space seems like there's lots of space. So, I ended up making some mounting brackets out of some aluminum stock I had laying around to mount to the oh sheet handles. I used 4 aluminum sheets, about 3"x12". Removed the handles to line up the...

    Waffle board mount

    I have the Frontrunner Slimline II roof rack and roof rack real estate is hard to come by with a rtt and solar panel mounted. Recently picked up some waffle (frp bridging) boards and mounting them in a useful/accessible spot was challenging. I think I found the perfect spot, under the roof...

    If anyone is wondering, yes, you can definitely replace your fog lights with Baja Designs Squadron-R Sports. They are the perfect size. I made some custom brackets from 1" aluminum L bar. And just use an h11 male pigtails to connect up to the BD connectors.

    I was tired of the magmount and thought I'd share my permanent ham antenna radio installation. I made a custom aluminum mounting bracket ot of 1" aluminum bar, 1/8" thick, and cut roughly 6" long. I used a 3/4" NMO rg58 cable and terminated my own pl259 connector. Ultimately, used a dual band...

    LR4 ARB Rear Locker is possible!

    Ok, I've been researching the LR4 ARB Rear Locker for years now. Every time I go down that rabbit hole it's a dead end. I haven't contacted ARB about this yet, but if someone wants to go down this rabbit hole by all means. ARB front lockers have been around for a while and are interchangeable...

    Towing a trailer with LEDs

    LR4 wheel studs?

    Does anyone have any information on wheel studs? With my new setup I'm inclined to look for extended wheel studs or at least have extra wheel studs out on the trail. With that said, the only info I have is that you can't buy them. The OEM pitch is M14x1.5, and the lug nuts is a combo conical...

    FS: 08' Range Rover wheels

    I have 9 wheels or rims. They are 7 spoke 19x8 factory wheels. I originally had 2 sets and a spare. 1 set of 4 wheels have Bridgestone Dueler H/L 255/55r19 in good condition. The other set of 5 had Goodyear Duratrac 255/55r19. 3 popped on a trail, so there are 2 tires with decent tread. One of...

    Brake pads and calipers

    Ok, I'm on a mission to complete an ambitious project. Can someone tell me the difference between the LR3 and LR4 front calipers and brake pads? I've been searching around and the front caliper seems like some sites show the LR3 and LR4 to have the same part numbers and some can be swapped...
