Desertcrawler Posted November 16, 2016 Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 I have a $200 tactical rover certificate I won from SCLR. Maybe I can help you out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gotrovr Posted November 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 I have the voyager sliders, I think they are great. Tactical 4x4 makes full underbody panels, prob a lot cheaper to ship than U.K. Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkUK protection is aluminum which I prefer to save weight.

TD1 Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Pros: 1) Fit and finish is excellent 2) Install was uneventful, although I decided to go with longer fasteners (M8/1.25pitch x 40mm) along bottom. 3) I like the round nerf bar as opposed to the square for aesthetic reasons. Cons: 1) Voyager sliders do not offer the same level of under body protection as with Rover Specialties sliders on my LR3. Voyager sliders only extend 5 inches from the outer door and do not extend over the air compressor... This is a concern and may be an issue. I am looking at a full under body panel from a source in the UK as alternate protection for the air compressor to include the fuel tank. Thanks- appreciate the insight.

TD1 Posted November 23, 2016 Report Share Posted November 23, 2016 looks great and similar color to my truck (but i went with anthracite compos and frontrunner rack). - I ended up ordering Prospeed sliders (raptor coated) and their compressor guard. They say the compressor guard is strong enough as a jackpoint, etc., so will be interesting to compare with what others have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gotrovr Posted November 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2016 Update: my Tepui Autana was installed on black Friday. Many thanks to Griffin at Tepui who did a great job with the install and pointers on setting up the tent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gotrovr Posted December 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 I added a few Rigid lights. Almost ready for wiring install. I had a local shop fabricate a custom stainless bracket for front Q2's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHappel Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 That's a nicely done bracket, looks like no cutting required and a simple, clean bolt on. You could mount just about anything on that. Hope you kept the template - I could see other people making use of that design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One piece 1/4" stainless plate bent, cut and drilled. The tabs can be narrowed somewhat to fit a single bolt light mount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidW Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 I am late to this thread, but my friend Chris in Louisiana just did a pretty epic build on his 2016 LR4. It's one of the nicest LR4s I have ever seen. With that said, LOVE the color of your new LR4. Very nice!!!

DavidW Posted February 23, 2017 Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 Very impressive. Chris set the bar to a whole new level. He sure has - it's quite a build. Though, a couple of us have gone the same route, just not so eloquently explained in with pictures in a post on the internet. He has even more photos and updates over at Overland Bound. You do have lots of resources here to help you along, though most of us have built up the 5.0 V8, which is a bit different than the SCV6 engine in the 2014+ model. That's where Chris' posts can really help since there are some quirks. Your LR4 is looking incredible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidW Posted February 23, 2017 Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 Think he topped $ you there Will.... better get your arse in gear He's coming up with a build price sheet. I know with what I did it's well over $15,000 in modifications. Most recently I added the Front Runner drawer system for my LR4. It's actually one of the few modifications I have done that fit perfect and did not require hours of figuring out the directions and modifying. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v667/EireAngus/3C3E04E3-5E39-4933-A06D-073DD1A65BC2_zpsetc3ew8j.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v667/EireAngus/96C1F64C-0E3B-4E55-852C-C67FF9257B17_zps1yia3mgm.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v667/EireAngus/0353C1F3-0695-4298-B11F-087F97A8F591_zpsf3jhy33j.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v667/EireAngus/48667F34-2B1D-4423-B667-C18995F1FB8B_zpsvogyudte.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gotrovr Posted February 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 The drawer system is on my wish list and is one of 3 items remaining on my build out. The other 2 are a winch and swing away spare tire. As for the winch there are few options with mounting. Land Rover's OEM system stops at MY13. A hidden mount is not an option for me for various reasons. That leaves a winch bumper, take your pick either Tactical or ARB. To my knowledge neither are compatible with the front cameras or parking sensors on the MY16. As for the swing away spare tire, the jury is still out. So far I'm pleased with what I've accomplished so far. I am running Duratrac 275/65R18's on a set of Compomotive wheels without rubbing due to Johnson Rods and a few custom modifications. My Tepui Autana ruggedized tent and Jerry cans are mounted on a Baja Expo Rack. I have plenty of Rigid LED lights (connected to a Switch-Pro SP-8100. My only disappointment is the Voyager sliders. Not quite the protection for air compressor as with my Rover Specialties Sliders on my LR3 http://johnsonrods.com/ Compomotive wheels and rods http://tepuitents.com/collections/roof-top-tents/products/autana-ruggedized-roof-top-tenthttp://www.rigidindustries.com/led-lighting/54461 mounted on a custom stainless tab in front of the grill http://www.rigidindustries.com/led-lighting/14231 mounted on the rack http://www.rigidindustries.com/led-lighting/104512 pair of these mounted on each side of the rack http://www.rigidindustries.com/led-lighting/50111 pair of these mounted on the rack aimed 45 degrees from front http://www.rigidindustries.com/led-lighting/91251 pair of these mounted on rear of the rack for additional backup lighting http://store.switchpros.com/sp-8100-8-switch-panel-power-system/ Definately a game changer for a descrete programmable multi light switch http://www.voyagerracks.com/lr3_lr4_rock_sliders.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
