Hey Reno LR owners off-roading in late June? I want to try Leviathan Canyon road south of Minden, should be easy-moderate (?). It’s on MVUM. CORRECTION: June 19 or June 26 CANCELLED winch problems and must dismount from ARB bumper

Got room to spare?

Too early for caravan posting?

Who’s going solo? Anyone getting a 2+ bedroom and and to share expenses? How about a group to share a house? Glamping?

I need a new propshaft for my LR3. What brands make a good one with good warranty and best price? Also I have 2 inch lift will that cause the center bearing to wear faster? CORRECTION: it’s the rubber cover over the center bearing that’s torn. I looked at landroverforums and it’s a chore to replace, easier to buy new shaft but $$$. Addendum: Does GBR or Tom Woods mfgr propshaft for newer models of LRs?

I may join you.

See y’all on the 17th

FYI August 25 is National Parks Free Day.

Is this a picture of downtown LA? Campers or homeless?

You could call them a 2ndary bumper-spacer to prevent airbags from going off in a very minor collision eg. < 10mph. I think at speeds > 30mph the cans are pushed in far enough to set off the airbag sensors. All ARBs are required by Australian law to have them. I suppose that in US you could discard them if you don’t have airbag sensors, but then your front end would cost you big $$$$ if you have a collision.

Crush cans are mounted to frame then the bumper on mine. Aren’t you worried about your crush cans getting yanked outward on a pull?

Is there any strong front recovery point on the LR3? The front tow loop is just a tie down. The ARB has no place to weld on recovery points b/c of crush cans. The chassis frame is too low. Any suggestions? SOL?

Ignore Graeme, he still has 78 vinyls.
