    LR3 Value in your area?

    that's probably about right for a trade in. just today i was looking at prices of 2005 & 2006 LR3's as my sister and her husband are in need of a new SUV. throughout texas prices were anywhere from 18k-21k.

    Wanting To Paint Wheels Flat Black - Suggestions?

    i knocked out my wife's on a saturday. i took all the wheels off and put the D2 on jack stands. i sanded/cleaned the wheels and then taped off the tires with newspaper. a few light coats of white and then a sealant. i let the truck set for a couple of days before driving it.

    Wanting To Paint Wheels Flat Black - Suggestions?

    rattle can them. i had the wheels on my LR3 sandblasted and powdercoated. i spray painted my wife's D2s wheels. lots cheaper, easier to fix, and look just as good. my powdercoating is starting to take a few dings.

    Realistic Tire Price

    hey ryan, that price at your dealer is about right for four BFT TAKO tires. also see what kind of warranty they will provide on the tires and if there is free rotations/balancing. i have the zeons and found the cheapest/easiest way to get them was to have discount tire price match...

    The obligatory "Show off your LR3' thread

    If you haven't seen the 285/60/18 Cooper Zeons in person, you are more than welcome to check mine out. They are just a touch smaller in diameter than the BFGs. We will be moved to nashville in 10 days if you want to meet up.

    Awesome LR Flatirons Trip!!!

    front passenger. it sucked @$$. the only way i could get the truck to move was in sand mode at about 1-2mph. it took a good bit of time getting it off the trail and even longer to get a replacement part shipped into moab.

    Powder Coat or Spray Paint

    if you plan on wheeling it, go with spray paint. i had a set of wheels for my LR3 powdercoated black, which hasn't held up all that great. i also have used rustoleum on my wife's D2 wheels a few times, which is super easy to touch up and a heck of a lot cheaper. i initially painted them...

    18 or 20 inch wheel offset question

    yes, sweet color combo! after blowing a CV in the middle of nowhere in moab, i have been very apprehensive of putting on bigger tires that won't clear at the bump stomps. i love the comforts of the air suspension, but trust it about as much as i do a politican. i think the 265/65/18 BFG...

    Which Winch???

    best i could find was 4 wheel parts. they can get you a 5% discount coming out to $1,157 plus tax. not cheap. there is free shipping to the shop though. the problem is they don't make many of these, so there is usually a couple month turn around time until they get enough orders...

    Which Winch???

    so superwinch EP 9.0 ($650) over the warn M8000 ($540)? those are the prices at my local 4 wheel parts. not too much of a price difference. i am just going to have them install the bumper as the majority of my tools are currently in storage. they said they'll install the winch for free...

    Which Winch???

    thanks for the help. i thought you were running the EP9.0. i've read up on several of your threads. i am really wanting to wait another 6 months before getting the winch, but don't want to deal with the 2 separate installs (not to mention "deinstall" of the bumper). i can get a good deal on...

    Which Winch???

    i've searched through a few threads and come across different recommendations. for those of you with winches, which one are you using? any recommendations and/or thoughts? i've got a new ARB front bumper on order and am debating on biting the bullet and getting a winch at the same time...
