    What size tyres can I go up to on my D90?

    I know this post is from a long ago, but I just purchased a D90, and I was wondering, what wheel size do you have? What kind of wheels do you use? My Defender has 16 x 5.5 steel wheels, so I can’t use the 265/75R16 tires, since they need at least 7 inches in wheel width. What do you recommend...

    Defender 110 Rear door adjust

    I had the same problem with my 2002 Defender 90, and as simple as it sounds, the door hinges just needed to be lubricated. I put some WD40 oil and the problem was solved. I hope this helps.

    aftermarket locking differentials for LR3

    Hello Houm_WA. I live in Mexico. I bought the full equipped version. There wasn’t more equipment available. It is the HSE and it has the full size spare tire. For what I have read, that meant the truck had the heavy duty package, but now I am thinking that here in Mexico the equipment packages...

    aftermarket locking differentials for LR3

    thank you Thank you guys for your answers and advices. I hope the traction control does it. I would only guess why does Land Rover offers the locking rear differential option if it is not neccesary?

    aftermarket locking differentials for LR3

    Wiring up auxiliary lighting on a '00 D2

    Hey Joey, thanks (I guess, haha). That is because I just washed my truck for the photos (It deserved it already). When it is all dirty, you can’t even see what kind of tires it has.

    The 2009 LR3

    If you like painted moldings and 22 inch wheels, you should better buy a pimped Escalade or Navigator. Don’t go buy a Land Rover, because you are going to be paying for a lot of technology that you won’t use (Leveling suspension, terrain response, locking differentials, etc.) No offense, but...

    Wiring up auxiliary lighting on a '00 D2

    Here are the pictures of my truck with the 275/65R18 Hankook DynaPro MT Tires. Hope you like them. I had to make a little modification in the backdoor tire support, so it could fit the bigger tire size. I just removed it, drilled other holes (6) an inch lower than existent ones, and put it...

    Wiring up auxiliary lighting on a '00 D2

    I just installed a 275/65R18 on my stock 18" wheels. I have a 2" lift, and the tire/wheel combination looks great. The tires are Hankook DynaPro MT, and they have very agressive tread design and sidewall protection, and they look great. I will post a picture as soon as I have one.

    I dont get any rubbing, even in normal mode. In access mode there is going to be a little rubbing when you make sharp turns, but nothing too serious

    Outfitted and ready to go!

    Sorry, I thought so too, but the fact is the tires dont rub, and I have made no modifications or lifting. I bought the tires because I liked them so bad, and hoped for the best. And they dont rub! I have tried them in the most extreme conditions. Thanks for the post

    Outfitted and ready to go!

    I have installed a set of Hankook DynaPro MT 275/65R18 to my LR3 and this tires are the best you can get for off-roading without rubbing. They perform excelent off road, and they are also rated for severe snow.
