When did your crossover go and is your climate HOT (CA, NM, AZ, TX, LA, etc) or COOL (PNW, northeast, etc)
Honestly, it can vary just based on the nature of the casting process, every so slightly thicker/thinner walls where the seams meet, etc. I replaced both around 60/70k to be safe, front eventually blew around 130k. Mine popped on the freeway, I remember the distinct crunch of hardened plastic as...- Kelly Barrie

Been absent for along while, beauty has 130K on it now, but hasn't let me down yet. Installed rear tire carrier, factory day running lights, dual zone fridge, 18" with 285/60/18 Toyo RT's- Kelly Barrie

I meant size, but you could seize trying to mount it to a pro speed rack, lol.- Kelly Barrie

Showoff Your LR4
It’s the Thule Force XT sport - I believe it’s the smallest one in that line. I choose that particular seize, so I could mount my Kayak on the other side- Kelly Barrie

LR4 Transmission oil change... mixed feelings.
Hey man, so dampener did reduce buzz, but has not eliminated it. It is definitely not as distracting now, but on occasion I can hear/feel it.- Kelly Barrie

LR4 Transmission oil change... mixed feelings.
Sorry for late reply, next time I'm down at my mechanics, I'll get the specifics about the update procedure he went through. I'm pretty sure it's not necessary, and in retrospect not a good idea of mine to do a transfer case update/reset. I was trying to eliminate possible cases for the rpm...- Kelly Barrie

LR4 Transmission oil change... mixed feelings.
Sharing my latest transmission story for what it's worth. I currently have 50k on the car, had transmission service/AB conversion kit done at 35k and a transfer case fluid flush at 45K to try and resolve a slight buzzing noise that occurs at the end of each shift. You can only really hear the...- Kelly Barrie

What did they do!!!
Sorry to hear this story, I hope everything work's out in the end. My apologies, if I'm highjacking this thread, but I thought I'd share my latest tranny story for what it's worth. My transmission can make a few soft clunk shifts up and down on occasion, seems to be par for the corse with these...- Kelly Barrie

largest tire with no lift
Yes, 7 Gal is good for our family of three +1 friend for a few days of camping. I'd also recommend the electric pressure pump and a shower tent as I find them very useful. There's nothing better than a shower and a cold beer after a couple of days on the road.- Kelly Barrie

Roof top Shower is amazing. I highly recommend the shower attachment which I find invaluable especially after hitting a remote beach or lake with the kids. I'm in SoCal, so on the really hot days the water temp can get too hot, so I either park in shade or run my Hilleburg awing over it.- Kelly Barrie

Nitto G2 265/50/20 don't fit, really??
Yes, thanks for correcting, I was referring to the HD package lockers. Some front air lockers would be nice though ;)- Kelly Barrie

largest tire with no lift
Well, got them on after all. When I took it down to my Landy Guy, he said, since the car was on a lift and had not been Locked into access mode, the suspension kept reaching, making it hard for the tech to get a very heavy wheel flush with the hub (sound familiar). I have to say I love the way...- Kelly Barrie

largest tire with no lift
That's what I thought too, makes no sense. I think you might be right about the over extension, that was my initial gut feeling. Gonna take it down to my Landy guy, I'm sure he'll get them on, he has an LR3 and 4 with all the overloading goodies, plus he's an ex master LR tech. Hopefully, I'll...- Kelly Barrie

Incidentally, did some more research and my oem 19" rims had a 57mm off set and the new oem 20" have a 53mm offset.- Kelly Barrie

Yup dims are correct. The rims are OEM 20" Land Rover 10 Spoke (see pics). I believe they are 8.5 wide, I forget the offset, but they are factory rims. Correct, the tires don't rub on the ball joint itself, but the knuckle that wraps it. I will take detailed pics when I try to mount them again...- Kelly Barrie

Thank you for responding, I will work on getting some pics up when I take it down to my Landy guy next week. When you say check the wheels on both sides what specifically are you referring to, so I can be more observant when I try to mount these again.- Kelly Barrie

largest tire with no lift
Yes, they are currently mounted and balanced. When the tech tried to mount them he could not get the fronts to sit flush. They appeared to be hitting the ball joint enough that he didn't want to even try and put lug nuts on. I still think he just might not have known enough about these vehicles...- Kelly Barrie
