Water Pump leak / TSB?
I tried searching the forum, but had no luck... I know the water pumps on the 5.0 V8s are prone to failure / leaking. I swear I remember reading that there was a TSB that LR put out on this. Am I correct in thinking that? Can someone with a TopiX account verify for me before my truck goes in on...- Surfrider77

Spare Tire Question
Yea, I wouldn't run that donut tire with non-standard tire sizes on the other wheels. That's asking for trouble. It essentially boils down to different rotational rates due to diameter differences. You end up with all sorts of mechanicals out of whack in the diffs and electronically with the...- Surfrider77

front lower control arm install
LCAs are super common on these trucks. I just replaced mine about a year ago at around 32k miles. I off-road quite a bit, it's 120F here in the summer, and these trucks weigh over 3 tons loaded up with passengers and cargo. It's no big surprise mine went as soon as they did. I won't make the...- Surfrider77

Strange stereo issue
Could be something vibrated loose over time from the back? Hopefully nothing electronically broken. LR would charge a fortune for a new unit / module. If it comes down to that, I would scour scrap yards for a replacement.- Surfrider77

LR4 Accessories
Just FYI, those lights are a completely separate accessory from the brush guard. They can also mount directly to the factory bumper without the brush guard. I had toyed with the idea of having them installed just to get all the factory mounts, wiring, and factory switch. I would then put my own...- Surfrider77

LR5 Release Updates?
Yea, I said it ages back in this thread.. it seems to me to get a similarly equipped Discovery as my LR4, I would be forking out nearly 10 grand more. Plus, the capability is questionable and removal of features + massive minivan tailgate just makes this entire truck a miss for me. Waiting to...- Surfrider77

LR4 Accessories
The LR4 has an OEM Land Rover brush guard available through accessories at your local dealer. Not sure if there are model year restrictions on it though. Looks kinda lame though! (Aux Lights are optional and costly) **EDIT** This link says 2010-2013 models only...- Surfrider77

wheel spacers
I use Compos. No spacers needed. I have never had ANY front fender rubbing of any sort on either 285/60 or 265/65. The 285/60 would rub at full lock on the frame horns, but very quickly went away once slightly worn. These 265/65 haven't rubbed on anything whatsoever. (Exact size measurements...- Surfrider77

new 18" wheel from Lucky8 offoad?
You are extremely limited in choice for 19" off-road tires. What I can say is, what are you looking for when you say "aggressive"? I drive in sand almost exclusively, and it's an an entirely different beast when it comes to tire selection. You don't want anything that will dig you in (muds and...- Surfrider77

Terrain Response Modes - Out of Sync?
Wow, that's pretty crazy. I'd have it in to the dealer asap. Never head of this one before. Perhaps a newer truck software issue.- Surfrider77

wheel spacers
I ran around with 285/60 tires for a couple years without issue at stock height. They are actually very slightly smaller in diameter than 265/65. The issue I have repeatedly heard complaints about are frame horn rubbing at full lock, which is a diameter issue, not a width issue. The only...- Surfrider77

Running Winter/Snow tires in relatively warmer temperature areas
Nothing will beat a dedicated winter tire in snow & ice, but I am curious to hear how the KO2s perform this season. They have a snowflake and mountain designation symbols on them. Not sure if it means much in the long run.- Surfrider77

Everything about tires for LR4/ LR3 with 18" wheels
Yea, you don't even have to lift the rear cargo cover, just unlatch the 2nd row seat to roll forward. Voila! Access to under the 3rd row seats. I stash my snatch strap, foldable shovel, and jumper cables under there. I have an ARB compressor I carry. Mostly because I air down to ~18psi in the...- Surfrider77

LR4 largest Tire size with lift on 18" Compomotives
IID Tool. There's a lot of threads on the forum about it. You're not getting much feedback on rods because most LR owners here do not use them. There's a handful, sure.. but most are using IID Tool for off-road use and standard height the rest of the time. 265/65/18 is the common choice for tire...- Surfrider77

well...truck can't get through EVERYTHING...fun day in the snow...not
Yea, stock tires are pretty terrible in anything but dry pavement. I could never figure why LR spends a ton of R&D money on the off-road systems on these trucks, but throws complete garbage rubber on them. Probably gives best MPG ratings is my guess.- Surfrider77

LR4 largest Tire size with lift on 18" Compomotives
Remember, Johnson site is trying to sell you a product. The other thread is pretty thorough in discussing all tire sizes and options. Most on this forum also use an IID Tool for lift, vs full time rods 24/7. It's a lot to read, but do yourself a favor and read the thread linked below before you...- Surfrider77

Atturo Trail Blade MT 255/55R19
Curious what their real world performance is. The gist of the webpage sounds like the design was inspired by some guy who makes knives to make them look aggressive. Not sure how serious I can take a tire design by a guy who makes knives with a nickname like a gamer kid.- Surfrider77

LR5 Release Updates?
To add on that, I am pretty sure the running boards were identical. I have seen pics of the underside and it seems LR added some aluminum mounting blocks to the frame for the boards which would act like mini crumple zones. Same shit running boards, little pieces of aluminum added to frame. You...- Surfrider77
