    Just received my notice to put my deposit down on a Grenadier

    Anyone else receive their invite to put down a deposit? It's $450 and I think it must be based on following them. I am putting a deposit down as it is fully refundable. This would be a lovely vehicle for our summer home in Northern Idaho.

    Best place to buy OEM brake pads 2015 LR4 Lux

    fortunately we have the black pack on our landie, so the 19" black wheels. No sense in even washing them.

    Best place to buy OEM brake pads 2015 LR4 Lux

    Update: Used the Ferodo's to replace the rear brakes. About 15 minutes a side (have floor jack and 1/2" cordless impact gun). Fit was perfect. No noise, work just fine. Now I am ordering the front brakes to get those done next week. I think this is my 3rd brake job. Original sensors and...

    Best place to buy OEM brake pads 2015 LR4 Lux

    Hey all, been a couple years since my last meeting, I mean brake replacement. Still want to go with OEM brakes. Last time I think I bought from the KC dealership. Wondering if anyone has found a better/less expensive option for brake pads? Thank you all in advance.

    Coolant leak on my 2012 LR4

    head gasket

    Is this leak coolant or transmission fluid?

    agree with everyone else. This is coolant. And, if it's coolant, you know where it's coming from. And you know what you have to do.

    Defender 130 an LR4 replacement?

    What terrible reporting. " The Defender 130 is expected to seat seven in a body about 201 inches long, about the same overall length as the Cadillac Escalade and GMC Yukon." Uh, no, not even close. At 201 inches the defender 130 is about the same overall length as an Explorer , not a GMC...

    As Predicted. (Defender news)

    Can't wait to drive one of these new broncos. I've been a Ford guy since I was a kid, worked for corporate for a number of years and, after a decade on other brands, I went back to ford for my 2018 F350 PSD and am currently bidding two separate auctions for a 69 and 70 Boss Mustang. So, it'd be...

    Voyager Rack Ladder Nightmare

    For sure. The good ones will sandblast the crud off the steel. You see this delamination in non salt environments too. As you said, it's all about the prep when powder coating.

    Voyager Rack Ladder Nightmare

    Your other option is to make a bracket out of aluminum and paint it black. Panel is aluminum and bracket it aluminum. Of course you would have to bolt it on to the ladder. I like fabricating stuff and have a bunch of metal work tools in my shop. I realize most don't but I am guessing there's a...

    Voyager Rack Ladder Nightmare

    I'd run a bead of high grade silicone on top that that and not let any water get behind it. Those gaps will just fill with direct and road crap and be worthless in short order. The designers of this stuff always forget the basic molecular principals of water.

    Voyager Rack Ladder Nightmare

    take it to a local fab shop and have them make a new bracket. Get some rubber gasket material and cut it out int he shape do the bracket. clean up the area on the lift gate. paint the new bracket. Install with gasket in between liftgate and bracket. Not sure why the heck anyone would install...

    HD vs non-HD package LR4

    that's a serious premium for the HD package unless your new one is better optioned. I'd be curious. If it was close, it would seem what the autotrader guy was saying about HD isn't far off. Your old one had 13000 few miles. That's $2k-$3k there. Plus the $8.5k difference in price is $10.5k to...

    HD vs non-HD package LR4

    this is my favorite part of the listing: "1 owner (registered) vehicle from $3 and $6 million homes, who was a mild-celebrity in 1999 and 2010." LOL

    Here's a look I haven't seen before....

    Let's all pitch in our money, buy this LR4 and put it in the cruncher and never speak of it again.

    2nd vote for Ford Flex. Someone spending money to make something nice look stupid.

    There she blows, (maybe coolant crossover)

    okay. so I've not read on this thread that my year (2015) has poorly designed pipes and doesn't have poorly designed pipes. Which is it? Should I be thinking replacement or not?

    There she blows, (maybe coolant crossover)

    thanks for the response. I was just looking online last night and didn't realize that Biggs is a client of mine.One of our sales guys must have sold him, so I'm kind of obligated. Appreciate the info. Maybe I'll have one of my sales guys reach out to Lamorna! Cheers David

    18”New Defender steelies on LR4

    that looks close to our 19" rims on our LR4. Nice job. Hard press to tell that's not stock. Looks great with those tires.

    LOL. I think I have to get better at being facetious.

    There she blows, (maybe coolant crossover)

    :stupid::stupido2::stupido3: Perfect emoji for when you realize that Biggs is a client that's news to me. I thought they were basically the same pipe with just a but different design. Same propensity to fail. As to a different issue, we have had this thing check out three ways to Sunday. No...

    There she blows, (maybe coolant crossover)

    @Seabassjfr Where are you getting it done at for that price? I am talking my wife into holding our 2015 Lux until the new Expedition gets v1 self driving mode which my friends at corporate are saying in 2022. Although our landy is low mileage, it has the smell of coolant after a drive when...

    18”New Defender steelies on LR4

    yeah, may have been cheaper to buy a defender, swap the rims out, and resell the defender. Holy cow. That is commitment on the look on the part of OP.

    2016 brush guards, rack and ladder - please identify

    Yeah, gotta agree here. I'd be afraid the plastic would break on an unyielding branch and then bend right back into the fender for a nice dent. These are show pieces, and not very good ones at that. Always amazes me that people spend good money on their rig, then hang junk off it. It's like...
