I've heard that the tranny is the same as found in many f150s. Can't confirm for sure though.
As far as I know the only funny part about the alignment is that the air suspension is supposed to be put in a special mode first.
I think it eats tires because it comes with wimpy car tires in a...
They are installed, fit seems perfect. More testing and pics tomorrow when we have daylight. As you notes the hub centers and bolt spacing is spot on. The offset is 4mm less than compos so ever so slightly wider. They require normal 60 degree conical lug nuts. Still need to find suitable...
FWIW I just test fit BMW style 99 wheels to the LR4 and they fit. They are really close to the fins on the caliper so some mild trimming for safe clearance is probably in order. They are at the tire shop now getting cooper ST Maxx's in 265/60/18 installed. Will post up how it all goes when...
FWIW poly bushings come in a tremendous range of qualities and firmness. We are running powerflex purple poly in all pivot bush locations in the wife's saab 9-5 aero wagon. They ride about like stock, but provide a noticeable improvement in steering. Also they've got 75k miles on them so far...
Fwiw in the mtns of CO I've been getting 20-21mpg indicated on the v8 LR4. Checking manually it was really more like 18.5-19.5. I got the same on a hemi powered ram 1500, 20-21mpg indicated and actual on a 5.0 f150 and 21-23mpg indicated and actual on a 3.5 Ecoboost f150 gen 2, and the same...
Nice, pay close attention to caliper clearance. The shape of the inside of the wheels will be important. An option other than compo would be awesome. I'm not a real fan of their design, looks and the price is nuts for what they are.
I think the center is 72.6mm. I'd probably mirror the backspacing on the compomotive 18" wheels. They are 44 offset iirc. The main thing will be to make sure they clear the calipers. I'd love to know more about what you are getting done. Sounds like it could be a great option!
Welcome! Note in 10 - '13 they had a 5.0L v8 and two speed transfer case on all models. HD package added a full size spare and locking rear diff. In '14 they switched to a somewhat lower output supercharged v6 and only the hd package models got the two speed transfer case. Traction control...
