    Front Bull bar Lr4 2014

    " ...the huge ARB bumper that disfigures the whole front." I sort of agree on that point @loowee . In fact, I look at the grill and headlight area of my LR4 and it is probably the sharpest looking aspect of the entire rig. I just can't cover it in something that looks like the facemask of a...

    2013 LR4 with overheated engine...what would you pay

    @powershift I'd do a ton of research if I had to drop a new motor into mine and I wouldn't pull the trigger until I was 100% comfortable with the situation. That would include getting quotes from no less than three reputable shops so I can get a sense of the market. For me, it's just too big...

    Lug Nuts Will Not Budge

    The maddening part is that it's the little things that stop you dead in your tracks. Back in the day, I had an old, beat up, Chevy pickup. I was living in a remote area of Montana and would need to drive down a couple miles of dirt road to get to pavement. When they graded the dirt road that...

    Current Brake Pad and Rotor Recommendations?

    I, for one, have not done brakes since I was born, but I did do one side today. Rear passenger's side with the sensor. I went really slowly and got it done. Lots of great videos with tips and tricks were incredibly helpful. It's the little things that were the most valuable, things that...

    Lug Nuts Will Not Budge

    Followed up on the Les Schwab idea early this morning. Turned out to be a good move. They were able to get my lug nuts off without any problem in the process of rotating my tires (something that needed to be done anyway). While the tires and wheels were off, they also informed me that my...

    Lug Nuts Will Not Budge

    As you can see, the wheels and lug nuts look in good condition. I'm also using a pretty heavy-duty lug wrench. I've shot all of them up with WD-40 and am going to let them sit overnight. Is there something I'm missing here? Could they be locking in a way that I am just not seeing? Anyone...

    Current Brake Pad and Rotor Recommendations?

    Thanks @ftillier. No manual. Just lots of YouTube vid watching. My worn pad sensor went off and then I looked around for professional help and it is either booked out until forever or really expensive for the type of work being done. The vids are pretty darn good. One question I had is that...

    Current Brake Pad and Rotor Recommendations?

    Well, looks like I am going to take the plunge into doing my own brakes. Watching the videos and such it seems if there were something a guy could do on his own, changing brake pads would be it. Any suggestions or tips would be welcome.

    5.0 supercharged into an LR4?

    Thanks @ftillier. So you could drop a RR SC engine into a Disco? Interesting... Good to know.

    5.0 supercharged into an LR4?

    @Tapps33 how is the supercharger project coming? Also, I had a question along those same lines. Seems like guys pretty routinely will do an LS engine swap in a Disco II, for instance, so I'm confused why a Range Rover supercharged engine would be such a problem for the LR4 to accept. In...

    Rover Landers British Columbia Club Founder's Day Event

    Been crushing on the Disco IIs and got a chance to see a few up close and personal. More importantly, was able to talk to a few of the owners that filled me in on the particulars. I was strongly considering a 2004 because they had the center locking diff. What these folks said is that the...

    There's more, but you get the idea. Lots of LRs under one roof.

    Rover Landers British Columbia Club Founder's Day Event

    Went to a Land Rover club event in BC with lots of cool rigs and even cooler folks. Will send a series of pics of the rigs.

    djkaosone build thread

    @djkaosone Cool build. You and I have the same trucks. I was looking for fun things to do with mine. I've done a few things, but I don't really consider it "a build" because anything I have added could easily be removed or is an option that could be found on a stock vehicle. This brings up...

    Nickname for LR4?

    I didn't know that^ I do know that boats and ships get named. B.B. King named his Gibson guitar "Lucille". Even the first atomic bombs were named "Fat Man" and "Little Boy". I'm confident my masculinity will remain intact if I name my car.
