    Don't go out alone - and bring your recovery gear.

    Went out for an easy trail run this weekend near Liberty, WA. Lucky for me, I was with two other rigs, and I was in the middle. Unlucky for me - we went over a nice little 'whoop' which happened to have a large puddle behind it. A very large, very deep puddle. In November. At 5200 feet. As...

    LR3 Differential Backlash?

    Been putting off my Front Diff rebuild and it's time to get it done. I'm shocked but LK8 stocks the diff rebuild kit but hasn't got any information on the actual rebuild process. This isn't my first diff rebuild, so I'm not in the dark here. Pressing in seals and bearings and races are clear. I...

    Anyone got a spare LR3 LCA with a bad bushing?

    Guys, I was in the process of replacing the front rearward LCA bushings on my LR3 with polyurethane ones but accidentally put a slot into the arm while removing the sleeve. I now have an arm with a good ball joint, good forward bushing, new rear bushing... but bad metal. No cracking (yet) but...
