    Water tank under cargo area floor?

    https://www.aulro.com/ this is the best I’ve seen have you thought about the rear passenger door well? You could use some sort of bladder arrangement with a submersible pump.

    Water tank under cargo area floor?

    Assuming its potable, the wouldn't something like this work? https://ironman4x4america.com/50l-roof-rack-water-tank-with-barbed-outlet-13-gal/?gclid=CjwKCAiAyc2BBhAaEiwA44-wW1eJFj4MoKtO4jByB7qcyAgW0QH2J_-gmptUUpMa6YyQ2dUj4UYS_hoCRPkQAvD_BwE When you need to suck out the dregs then just park on...

    Onboard Spare parts when off-roading/overlanding

    Ok, so the phrase overloading gets used to death, but its all in the mix with off-road use of these vehicles. So, which spares, if any do you keep onboard when you take the Landy away from the blacktop? I'm not talking spare tyres, oil or coolant, I'm referring to spare components, brake pedal...

    Change out differential and transfer case fluids

    You shouldn’t have to renew any plug unless you damage it. What you must do is anneal the copper washer to make it nice and soft again to make a good seal. a steel plug can last the lifetime of the vehicle if the correct tools are used.

    4x4 sPOD or comparable power distribution suggestions?

    Give me a while to get “wrench’n’roverin” up and live on YouTube and it’ll all be there.

    Bolt-on Roof Racks for LR4 Without Rails?

    Ha, I hear you on the bank account. I'll keep buying the lottery tickets. Prospeed say that you need the short rails. Of course they are just to support the rack, so I suppose some bracketry could be fabricated. If you are handy in the metal shop then I'm sure it would be relatively easy. But...

    Bolt-on Roof Racks for LR4 Without Rails?

    I’m in the same situation as you, I’ve no rails installed. I really would like the prospeed rack but this requires the short rails for installation.

    4x4 sPOD or comparable power distribution suggestions?

    I’m about to install my front spot lamps and route them through an rf relay box. The plan is to use the home link on the rear view mirror to control them. The way I see it is I’ve 3 buttons there that I can use to operate aux items. I’m not too much of a fan on cutting the interior to...

    Have you tried asking on one of the jag forums? I did a search on jag engines to come up with the part number

    In need of the most random part ever. Any ideas?

    At least you got a good outcome. I’m deciding to get rails or not for the future rack, just not sure which way to go with the rack.......decisions.

    Steal of a deal on an LR4 with issues

    Absolutely. It’s just an ‘if’ you go down this route and the experience I have had with these products and just wanted to share. In all honesty the debris you see could have come from when you lifted the head and just landed in a cooling gallery. Flush a few times and see what comes out. If...

    Steal of a deal on an LR4 with issues

    Wow, you’re cracking on with this. That’s a bummer to hear about the contamination of the cooling water system. If you’re planning to use a coolant flushing chemical to clean everything out once you’re reassembled then have a good look at the fine print. Some are not rated for certain alloys...

    HD vs non-HD package LR4

    In the gap tool you can lock the diff through a test cycle. In my case it moved a little from fully open and got stuck. Because the diff actuator motor didn’t return to its reference point of fully open the truck threw a wobbler. I’ll see if I can find a breakdown of the codes that were...

    HD vs non-HD package LR4

    Welcome to the rear locker club. Just be warned, if that motor that operates the clutch packs gets stuck you are dumped on your ass on the bump stops without abs, stability control and more dashboard lamps than Christmas. Good news they’re cheap and take 30 minutes to change :) Ask me how I...

    Headliners.... why are they always beige or a version of boring?

    I had a black headliner on my ridgeline black edition. Not a fan on that truck. I’ll stick with my retirement home beige headliner and black interior on the lr4 thanks. I just wish it didn’t mark as easily. Grubby toddler handprints everywhere.

    What did you do with your Lr4 Today?

    I've been thinking of these rims myself. We’re you able to reuse the lug nuts or did you have to get a different spec?
