Brake swap with LR3?
I was curious about braking distance. From what I've found online braking distance is pretty much equal, both 120 to 130 feet from 60-0. It's curious that both are the same. -

What is the average lifespan of an LR3 alternator?
I think he was referencing my post. I think mine came from Autozone. -

Everything about tires for LR4/ LR3 with 18" wheels
doesn't quite fit the thread title, because I think they are smaller than 18". Are these 17"? And if so, because they are diesel? Pretty fun video anyway. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQ7sF_07Wyo -

Thanks for the feedback Paul Are both your sets stock size? -

Brake swap with LR3?
That's sort of what I suspected. I've googled as far as my googlefu will take me, but haven't found anything. I have never had a problem braking as I have said, even while trailering so that doesn't worry me. It's one of those things that if I never experience those bigger brakes, I probably... -

Bad wheel bearing
Is it growling or squeaking? My front left is squeaking, like a dragging brake squeak, a little metallic drag kind of squeak. Thought it was low brake pads so I just replaced the brakes and rotors, which was needed as well, but it persists. No noticeable play when I try turning the wheel by... -

Brake swap with LR3?
Yeah, I definitely haven't heard about it either - which is one reason I'm curious. Maybe I could patent my idea?!?! haha My thinking was to do when it was time to replace brakes and rotors anyway so there wouldn't be any extra charge there, in fact probably a savings. And then buy calipers... -

Brake swap with LR3?
So, question too dumb or too hard? I'm not sure I'm wanting to do this when the time comes, but would be curious if the LR4 has same caliper mount points, just bigger caliper and bigger disc? Or is everything just 'different'. I've always had a set of winter and summer rims and tires, sure... -

What is the average lifespan of an LR3 alternator?
103,000. If my experience is any indicator, you have about 2-3 weeks from whine to Christmas tree of faults. I think the alternator was about $190. Get it tested, or whatever but replace sooner rather than later. -

Brake swap with LR3?
So, thinking about my inevitable upgrade to an LR4, I think that one of the single biggest drawbacks is the 19" rims and lack of 'fun' tire options that so many of you have grappled with. I suppose with not many other options, I would probably seek out some Compo's. But now I'm wondering if... -

Rust & the LR4
My '05 lives bathed in salt for 4 months a year in MI. Plenty of surface rust underneath, and there's certainly some bolts I'd rather not try to remove. But nothing that wouldn't last another 10 years easy. If I was shopping, I'd rather find a southern truck, but I wouldn't run from a good... -

Lr3 2005
mine too todd. Actually it's been a year, you get used to the stupid light. I have a veeeerrrrry slow mechanic, who has replaced the module but hasn't run the reset procedure yet so the light is still on. Fortunately Michigan is flat! You can buy a used module btw. I'll tell you how it... -

Hood sensor
3 years later, I switched to some sort of heavy duty staple along the way... Not to mention that absolutely nobody has stolen my engine yet...so that's a bonus! -

T44 rock sliders - Test fitting (long post)
Those look nice, but unless you're seeing something I'm not - they are only for disco I and II. Umberto, Is the drain hole such that you could put a hose up to it to help loosen and flush the dirt? -

Newbie Question re Heavy Duty Package
Interesting...but I'm 99% it's wrong. You need the HD to have a true electronically locking differential. And I'm not sure I get the space saving tire and alloy rim thing. It's a regular tire on an alloy rim like the other 4. -

easy? question
hey thanks guys. My LR3 only has rear sensors, but there's still a button to shut them up. cperez, without the button, do you have a way to turn the rear sensor alarm off? Do you have front sensors? It's funny, because I don't actually care if I have sensors or not, but for some reason I... -

easy? question
OK, so maybe it was a harder question than I thought, LOL Button. Right of Hazard button. Y'all got it? If you don't, what option don't you have? -

Terrifying brake pads consumption!!
well if the 30-40 miles a day is correct, that's no more than 8500 miles - which would be crazy. I've never figured out in all these years of ownership and forum watching how some people go through brakes as quick as they do. I don't think I've ever in 20 years and 6 LRs had brake pads go... -

easy? question
Seems like it should be. I'm looking around at used LR4s. I've noticed in the pictures that some have a parking sensor button next to the hazards, and some don't. Don't they all have parking sensors? Or does it have to do with whether or not they have backup cameras or something? TIA -

2005 LR3 for sale with a suspension fault - negotiate or run away?
er, you don't even know the price. What if it was, oh...say $6000? What if one with service records was $15000? Of the handful of problems that occur it's not like it's all going to go bad at once. That only happens when I buy stuff ;) It'd be a good idea to change the diff oil if you get... -

2005 LR3 for sale with a suspension fault - negotiate or run away?
Curious what they are asking for it? I had a dealer just tell me mine (same miles) was worth $6000 - which made me choke a little bit! Even with perfect history records, any of the weak components could break on you soon enough. Ask yourself what you think it would be worth to you if it was...
