    For sale/trade 4-LR3 18" wheels with Nitto tires

    Here's the deal. The LR3 is going to the SUV heaven in the sky. Since I won't get anything extra for having the sought-after (at least for off road) LR3 18" alloys and Nitto Terra Grapplers, here's your chance to get 'em cheap. I'm looking to swap your existing LR3 factory wheels and tires with...

    Landrover: Get your photos in line with the ad copy

    Oh, and while you're at it, you might want to check to see if the phrase "Axle Deep" has any meaning for the LR3. This ad just makes my balls hurt.

    The Affordable Defender/Tata and the $2500 Car

    http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080110/ap_on_bi_ge/india_ultracheap_car Wonder what this means for Land Rover now that it looks like Tata will own them. And, man, if you think oil prices are bad now, wait until every middle class person in India gets a hold of one of these $2500 cars. At least...

    Nittos are Neato

    It was time for the stock tires to go. Two weeks ago one of them took a nail in the tread close to the sidewall. No tire store would patch it, so I plugged it using an ARB repair kit until I could get to the tire store this weekend (note to self: pack locking pliers with ARB kit for pulling out...

    Interesting LR3 out there

    This vehicle will not work for me since the wife wants sunroof and leather, but I thought someone here may be interested. In my quest to find an LR3 with the Heavy Duty Package (locking rear diff + full-size spare and alloy) I found out about it. I don't know exactly which dealer has it, but...

    LR3 winch. Get it when buying new or add later?

    This will probably be the only mod I do to the wife's LR3. Can anyone give me numbers on installed cost? Has anyone had the dealer cut them a deal on it if added when buying the vehicle? Just looking for some ammo for negotiating...

    2004 G4 Discovery II :: $24K

    I'm buying an LR3 (it's a long story, maybe I'll tell it another time when I'm not as bummed), and as such if you want to buy my G4, you'll be buying it through a local Land Rover dealership here (Dallas, TX area). I'm rolling in what I owe over $24K, so this is how I have to sell it. The...

    All you motorcyle riders out there, please be careful!

    Man, am I depressed. I got to leave work early today before the Thanksgiving holiday tomorrow, so I was driving down a street close to home running an errand or two. I needed to pick up a breaker bar and 27mm socket, so I thought I'd finally buy them today at Lowe's. It was a beautiful day...

    Pop/clunk on abrupt acceleration from a stop

    (04 D2, 2" RTE lift) There were a ton of search results for pop/clunk, and most were about older vehicles and were not exactly the same scenario. When I'm at a stop, if I give it a quick jab of gas pedal, I get a slightly delayed clunk sound. If I accelerate slowly I don't get the noise. It...

    Hairdryer success: fender flare adhesive removal

    After giving myself a blood blister on my thumb, I decided to take my own advice and use a hairdryer to speed up the removal of the fender flare adhesive from the vehicle. Worked pretty well. See a Quicktime movie of it here (there's no audio, so no, I'm not just pretending to use it). What...
