    anyone seen these bumpers?

    ran across this on ebay today. anyone heard of "Aluminess Manufacturing"? there is a brief description of the company at the bottom of the ebay add. i am not sure what to think of the front and rear bumpers, but any additional options are a great thing! maybe they can even do a nice rear...

    Offroad dedicated wheels / RRSport HSE rims

    Offroad dedicated wheels / RRSport HSE rims

    i had those 19" RRS wheels on my silver LR3 for four years and loved the look of them. personally, i think they look better on the LR3, than the original 18" and 19" LR3 wheels. i however sold them to get 18"s (which i originally had) so that i could get more aggressive tires at a decent...

    Front lower control arm bushes worn? Video

    got my front control arm bushings replaced yesterday at the LR dealership with the factory bushings. my crappy extended warranty actually came through and covered about $700 worth of the the job, so no polybushes yet. i owed another $100 in parts and $180 for the stupid alignment. i have a...

    Akebono Ceramics

    i got 'em all around about 10k miles ago. brake dust is a minimum. noise/squeal is pretty minimal as well, mainly when wet/off roading. i don't remember the price, but they weren't any more than OEM.

    To powder coat or not to powder coat....?

    the turn around time on getting mine powder coated was about 5 days. the total for four wheels was $260, i believe. not cheap, but i really didn't want to mess with rattle canning them myself as we just sold our house and moved into a temporary apartment without a real garage or driveway to...

    Removeable screens for windows...?

    i don't know why the link isn't working now. magna screen is somehow associated with "trout world." their link isn't working either. you can actually position the screen so that it just sticks to the door. learned that one quickly. i bought a couple battery powered fans, but the area...

    Photo of LR3 w/ RRSport stock HSE wheels?

    mine w/ the '06 RRS wheels (i believe). may not be the ones you are looking for. i really liked them but switched to the 18's for better tire options.

    Removeable screens for windows...?

    just an update on the magna screen...these things worked great! they are cheap too, only $15 a piece. they fitted well around the rear windows without any problems. we wedged a queen size air mattress in the back of the truck and had two small fans running. it really wasn't that bad of a...

    The obligatory "Show off your LR3' thread

    i think that would make for a great trail rig. minimizes pin striping. a guy in our local club has a classic with black rhino liner up to the windows and then a matte black on the hood and roof. it looks sweet and is very nicely done. you can kinda make it out in the pic below.

    Front lower control arm bushes worn? Video

    that is my hope! i did read that thread on disco3.co.uk about some english chaps having difficulty getting them on. i was a little worried about dropping the money on them and no one being able to get them on.

    Front lower control arm bushes worn? Video

    i've been reading through a bunch of the threads regarding LR3 suspension noises and crappy bushings. that sounds like my issue. has anyone tried "polybush"? i've seen several references to this on here and other forums. i am looking at forking over the $450 for the entire polybush kit and...

    Interested in '03 or '04 Disco; Trim level options?

    yeah, i should have been a bit more clear with my thought process. if we buy a disco it will initially just be my wife's daily driver with plans to turn into a trail rig in the future. with the LR3 there is only one real factory option that affects off road capabilities and that is getting...

    Interested in '03 or '04 Disco; Trim level options?

    i have an '05 LR3 and love it. my wife has gotten the rover bug after doing a bit of off roading with me and now she wants a disco. i am interested in buying her an '03 or '04 disco, but i can't really find good info about the differences in the trim levels, S, SE, HSE. are the differences...

    terrible squeeking and creaking

    hey fellas, any words on diagnosing these sounds? i have been noticing a new squeaking/creaking sound from the rear driver's side over the past two months. it mainly occurs when going over speed bumps or turning down ramps in parking garages. it roughly coincides with when i put my sliders...

    The obligatory "Show off your LR3' thread

    yup, they may be worth while, may not be. kinda like insurance. all i know is that i would be kicking myself if i walked out one morning and saw my truck sitting on some cinder blocks and i hadn't put some wheel locks on them. gotta love the "inner city" life.

    LR3 Wheel Locks

    talked to my local LR dealership. $76 for a set of 4 wheel locks. plus i get a 10% discount being a member of our local rover club. not as pricey as i thought. these will be the cheapest part i have ever purchased from the LR dealership. per the parts guy it should be near impossible for...

    CB Radio

    yeah, i have a rack and was debating on mounting it up there. i was just trying to think of a mounting system that would allow me to keep the whip on at all times and not have to take it on and off because it would be so high on the truck not letting me into parking garages (its already way...
