  1. Hey max, You are totally wrong, a snorkel cannot save you in every situation. See below.
  2. It's more of a slide then a pop, but yes. Don't forget to wiggle it a little on the way out.
  3. If I were you I would mount it under the hood, but an interior install would be pretty easy as well, as stated above. Don't those things get real hot?
  4. Those rims are nice and all, but there are much cheaper options. They cost AT LEAST 250 a piece new. And I would definitely do the seafoam. I did my first one at 120k and it's never ran better.
  5. Check out rockauto.com. If it is the part I think you are talking about, they have it for $77 in black.
  6. oooh the restart grind...makes you feel kind of awkward doesn't it? I am almost positive there is no 'safety' built in, as the start cranks the engine a lot slower than it idles, so it just grinds some gears.
  7. Are you sure your clutch isn't slipping? What happens when you accelerate hard on dry and flat ground?
  8. Aren't Land Rovers the reining champion of expedition vehicles? I would go with that.
  9. You definitely need a 5-10 gallon tank if you are going to lay on it. I can't wait to do mine, its gonna have a pull line like the big rigs I also suggest mounting it where it cannot be seen.
  10. I would never tow 5k with my manual..yikes! I think you are looking for something like some OME springs. They provide minimal lift (1.75" I believe), but there will be very, very little sag with the medium coils in the back. It's about $240 shipped for the set of 4 springs, which is a VERY good deal.
  11. Aluminum isn't as strong as steel.
  12. They will, fit, but there will be rubbing. If I were you, I would go with the 32's and a 3.75-4" backspace rim.
  13. I'm not really sure what you're pointing at, but here, use my picture: The plastic piece you are missing is called the fender trim. It's actually pretty expensive from the dealer. I ended up doing without one of my bumper sliders and it's just fine.
  14. Thanks for that info. It looks almost as if the spring could compress and rub the tire, but I guess not.
  15. At least they would make good mirrors for the gf.
  16. It looks like you have it pretty well under control. Are you doing the lift yourself or are you having a shop do it?
  17. I stuck 31's on mine with the stock SE rims. The clearance between the the tire and the spring makes me a little nervous (about 2"), but I will be lifting it soon.
  18. I actually took the runners off the roof and ran the wires under that.
  19. Yep, although they are a good deal longer than the stockies, they are short enough to fit in the same place.
