[Choqiees]

I prefer TJM. mine's also airbag compatible.

RoverTym is my favorite.. I had the TJM T-15 before hand and I upgraded to the RoverTym and I'm very happy I did.

Funny to read insurance and aftermarket comments today. Earlier this week I was in a wreck... yeah I hit her! We stopped at a yield... she started to pull away to enter highway and she just stopped again because a car was in the third lane (two lanes over). Needless to say I smacked her well. My rover is lifted and I have a bull bar with Hellas (I should say Hella, single, now). I crushed the rear trunk, light assemble and part of her rear quarter on the drivers side (mostly plastic).

It broke my Hella light and scratched my Bull Bar. NOT ONE SCRATCH TO MY ACTUAL ROVER!

Spoke with the insurance adjuster yesterday. He asked if there was any damage to my vehicle, I said, "No but it did break the lens on my off road light on the psgr side and scratched my Bull Bar". He laughed... and said, Well I guess it is good you had that on there... for you.

most dealerships know there will be poepel that will use the cars for what they are made. so they will be ok with most modifacations but i would just go down there and ask.

as functionality, RTE wins...but I kinda go with the look ...don't really like the slim bumper

As already mentioned, if you added a locker and then you broke a drive shaft or drive line, they would not cover that particular part.
Don't worry about it.

This also goes for springs too. With a lift let's say the driveshaft goes out, at most dealers they will refuse the work and not cover under warranty. Ask me how I know! LOL!

This is my own personal rant so here goes..WHAT IS WITH PEOPLE WHO STOP WHILE MERGING ON THE HIGHWAY!!!! Uggg!!

I had the same thing happen too; stupid B*%$&$ slammed on her brakes while merging with no cars coming! Needless to say I had a Jeep back then lifted, lights, ect. I had ZERO DAMAGE (not even the Hellas were bruised) and her POS (a Toyota something) had 4K worth! Ok off soap box!

out of my list of 726436727361356 pet peeves.. The entering the highway slow down/stop (with their turn signal blinking away of course.. as if they would go right otherwise) is in my top 5. Drives me crazy every time.

I have an ARB on my truck. The ARB is guaranteed to work with the airbags. As for Land Rover, they tell me every thing I do to the truck will void the warranty. LOL I think they say that so they can get out of fixing some thing. I never took into consideration on the weight of the new bumper would have on the springs and shock. I will have to see what the stealer ship will say when some thing goes wrong

This is EXACTLY the case. The folks at Bob Moore Land Rover are not NICE to lifted Disco's. When he asked about my truck and if it had been lifted I played dumb...That did not work, they measured the truck's springs! BUT when I was traveling in KY, there was the coolest group of guys I have ever met at a Rover Dealer! They all wheeled, had lifted trucks, ect....Why could my driveshaft not give out in KY?

It does depend on the dealer, our dealer doesn't care what you really do with it just don't modify the engine,trans, and stuff like that. Not sure about lockers but they do warrenty worked on alot of lifted rovers.
