    New Bumper With Swing Away Carrier

    i'm really liking it. not having to worry about wedging/unwedging that tire up under the truck is nice. the departure angle is improved a bit as well. i also finally installed my traxide dual battery setup this past week. its a pretty nifty little system. cost is in the 2k range.

    New Bumper With Swing Away Carrier

    One of the guys in our local club, Texas Rovers, just completed a new steel bumper and swing away carrier for my LR3. He did a fantastic job! His name is Chad, and he is a jeweler by trade. His attention to detail is quite evident in the final product. There were minimal modifications to the...

    Which Battery for Dual Battery Setup?

    thanks for the replies. what do you mean by matched batteries? my main cranking battery is an interstate mega-tron plus. the main use of the 2nd battery will be to run an ARB fridge full time. the two new 12 volt sockets in the rear will be used for fans/lights/inverter when camping...

    RS Sliders - installed.

    i did pretty much what nathan did. my driver's side slider went on perfectly. the passenger's side was a different story. something was just a bit off. there's a subtle squeak coming from my passenger side that i think is localizing to the slider. just haven't had time to mess with it.

    battery going out...

    i got 3 years on my first battery. 1.5 years on my second. i would go to autozone and have them check it first. the dealer is way expensive for a battery.

    Anyone have a good rear tire mount?

    i contacted rasta yesterday. their swing away tire carrier with shipping to TX would be $1274 + custom fees (whatever they might be). i just emailed them back to see what they could possibly do for a group buy. they can offer a discount for a group buy of 10 or more. that number might be...

    is wood stock on a LR3 05?

    this wood kit is an OEM factory option. not aftermarket. i had a piece of mine become somewhat disfigured while still under warranty. the dealer replaced the whole setup for free. i like JackMac's suggestion regarding removal.

    Problems With the LR3

    go to autozone and get your battery checked first, unless you have a LR extended warranty or LR has recently replaced your battery. the LR dealership will charge double what autozone will for a replacement battery. the LR3 loves electricity!

    anyone seen these bumpers?

    yeah, not too aesthetically pleasing. at least to my eye. the ARB and rovertym bumpers seem to compliment the truck a bit better.
