If the rod-mod is available for the RR, it hasn't been advertised on any message board I've seen.
ChesapeakeRover, It would be interesting to learn if the MkIII RR has Super Extended mode available. If not, then the ground clearance would really be equalized too.
I'm pretty surprised that the LR3 has better departure angle (I'm assuming that's measured in OffRoad height?). The rear of the RR looks higher to me, but I guess it hangs out there a tad further than even the LR3's long butt.
LR3 has better articulation too..
Is there any basis for the better articulation comment?
I've driven our bone stock 2008 FFRR and my old LR3 with Yoko AT-S over the same terrain on our ranch. Lots of narrow cliffside roads, a few 2' deep rockstrewn creeks and 30 degree plus ascents.
The FFRR has a noticeably smoother ride over dirt roads and rough terrain, and seems to climb steep grass/gravel ascents with less wheel spinning that the LR3.
