    Crazy Cooper Zeon Tire deal...

    Yeah that's about right. When I got mine they were retailing for $145 each

    LOL, and that's just walking out in front while his wife drives :-)

    CB Radio installs

    In the LR3, the simplest way to mount a CB radio is to use something like the Cobra 75-WXST. I mounted mine with the little controller part attached to the frame under the passenger seat, and of course with the antenna wire under the carpet, over to the drivers side, and then out the rear...

    anyone seen these bumpers?

    Aluminess makes large truck bumpers, and can be seen on Sportsmobiles and similar. They are a good mfr, but I'm not wild about their LR3 rear bumper.

    Rear A/C... How does it work?

    Specially if you close all the other vents and turn the fan on high!

    Cooper Zeon LTZ on LR3

    How many words for snow do the Eskimo's have? Clearly, there is no one solution for all conditions. I grew up in Michigan, mostly icy snow. I have visited Utah in ski season, completely different. Do what the locals do.

    Packing a Spare

    Nice idea using the existing hardpoints for the hold downs. I use those same tracks in my Jeep. Very handy indeed.

    New LR3/4 Slider Option

    No I don't think so. The frame sits inboard another 6 or 8 inches. These sliders bolt only to the sills, where the factory KIT running boards and nerf bars attach.

    Packing a Spare

    That's why I use Ratchet straps. Start at the forward tie down point, loop the strap outside the tire (towards center of vehicle) and up through the center hole of the rim, and back down to the same forward tie down point on the inside of the tire, and then tighten them up nice and snug. Do...

    OEM Driving Lights

    It cost me 4 large coffee's from Starbucks to get mine activated. I just rolled up to the service garage a little early in the morning while the tech's were getting ready for the day, and offered them to a few of the guys that had worked on my rig previously, then they hooked up the computer and...

    What are the these?

    I saw one yesterday with a chrome brush guard and 24" DUBB's. So weird....

    New LR3/4 Slider Option

    So up to $1399, plus the compressor skid? Not bad. I like the fact that there are more options.

    Packing a Spare

    David, I lash mine to the tie down points in the rear. I place it vertically up against the passenger side bulkhead, and use two ratchet (not cam lock) tie down straps, one fore and one aft of the tire. It is a secure hold, relatively out of the way, and easily accessible should you need it on...

    New Project

    Nice work. What are you using for a floor? You don't have many cross bars for support.

    40mm Offset Wheels on LR3

    Sounds like it might be an issue. The factory wheels are: Offset is 53P (approximately 165mm or 6.5″ +/-)

    Mod/question

    x2 on that. Very unsafe the way you have it.

    Oil filters

    Sorry but that is bad info. Quite a few of the bits actually have the Ford oval stamped right on them...not to be confused with the Land Rover oval :-) I'm not sure about the filter though.

    North Jersey Independent Land Rover mechanics

    It does not take a Rover specialist to do these brakes, they are very straighforward. Order the parts and sensor plugin from Atlantic British and hand them to pretty much any reputable mechanic and you'll be fine.

    Anyone seen the new Grand Cherokee?

    The company that Ford outsourced the TR Control system to is the same company Jeep tapped to develop the TC system in the JK Wrangler. I assume its the same company that provided the system for the new Grand. It's all good.

    CB Radio

    LOL, that's the short version of the story :-)

    Can you get a nav as an add-on option for the 07 LR3 SE?

    Sure, just stick a Garmin in the cubby, save yourself thousands of dollars in the process
