note: very thin ceramic purple grease between terrafirmma spacer and your rotor studs nice lookin lr3

Great stuff boys… the tuff rok mud flaps have made a big difference for me since adding my spacers. I don’t think you would regret that upgrade

Love the look with the spacers on and tires standing out wider.Really makes the Rover look tougher to me. I want to do that to mine now. I have a 2010 LR4 HSE. Probably going to be doing Atlantic/British heavy haul coil spring conversion at some point. The wonderful air suspension at 129,800 miles is no doing the rover sag HAHA To defeat that for now I did what a few other guys have done and set the rover at its highest point and then went under the hood and pulled the EAS fuse to lock it in place. Can't use it but it's high no so not worried about that.Once I switch out to couls I want have anymore anyways so not a big deal. I want like 33 or 34 inch tires on it and the spacers also so should be fun and exciting when I get to doing that stuff. Great video really enjoyed it and just subscribed.

Great Stuff! Been following you for a few months now and I've learned quite a bit from you for my newly acquired D3. Here in Texas land is 98% privately owned so it's tough to find a spot to off-road.

I will only install spacers to correct a wheel offset, not to add offset. Kinda like my bearings...

Brilliant videos keep them coming!! Liked and subscribed 👌🏼

Hello, I mounted the wheelspacers already 7-8 years ago a whole other story 10 times better ! and then I mounted the steel wheel bolts that I recommend, so you avoid deforming those hateful LR bolts, every time you remove a wheel !! greetings disco drivers

Thought I was watching Matt's Off Road Recovery for a moment there with some of the background music! Great vid though 👍

Love it

Awesome video as always sir!!

Thanks for the vid. Might do my D4 some day. Any reason you don't lock it at the lowest (access) height and then jack it up? Whenever I take mine to get wheels changed they do this.. However the book does say to do it on the highest level - which is what you've done and I do as well? I assume it's only purpose is to stop people lowering the vehicle down onto obstacles?

i put blue thread locker om mine as the nuts holding the spacers on dont look safe and the side of the disco is dirty all the time but they do look good

Hi Jay. I have 255/70 R18 on and have just put 30mm spacers on, but it is rubbing on the wheel arch. Any recommendation on how to fix that, please? Thank you.

@jaytee Great video. Any extra or less tire rub at full lock? Also, separate question, do you (or anyone) know of an updated rear hatch strut to support a ladder better? I added a front runner ladder to my LR4 and the boot is much harder to open now. Thanks!!!!

Good video. However two issues number one all wheel nuts should be started by hand to stop the chance of getting a crossed thread, number two when using a torque wrench it should be done in slow steady motion you shouldn't need to bounce it other than that good content looking forward to the next one.

Me encanta

멋지다 랜드로버~~

Jay What is the music in the video at minute <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="680">11:20</a>? Love that.

Would these go on a 59 plate range rover sport

Great video, what wheels are those? Wasn't aware D3s came with 17s as an option.

Unrelated to the spacers but what brand is the roof rack? Almost looks like a cut down factory rack?

Star pattern?

Hi Jay Tee. Would like to ask. 2 months since video. How is the spacers holding up? Wheel bearings becoming an issue off road?

What’s the tire size your using

Any tracking needed after fitting the spacers?

Como puedo ponerme en contacto con usted?

Hi just have one question what size tyres you can fit to lr3 5" lift. 275/65/18 is ok . Thanks

I was thinking of putting some very good quality hub centric 30mm wheel spacers from Terrafirma same as in this video on my landrover discovery 4 BUT I keep on hearing that they will mess up my bearings! Is this true. I will not go off roading but just city and motorway driving.

What size tyres are they?

First

I do not trust these devices, it seems to me that with so many holes, the aluminum alloy part is too fragile. I'm afraid one day to see my wheel rolling next to me xD

a better option is to use rims from a BMW X3 or X5, there is a large selection of cheap rims that widen the wheel track. The nuts should then be replaced.

STOP!!!! The biggest issue here is it look like you short bolted the spacer on. @<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="390">6:30</a> you can see the stud isn't right through the nut. The male thread isn't long enough. That's a huge no no!! The male thread isn't long enough on the vehicle. You should have at least two fully formed threads protruding above the nut surface. The first thread is a run in and isn't manufactured to be fully load bearing. In this case you could have one thread fail by fatigue (and you wouldn't know because the nut you can see will still feel tight.... Only its attached to the spacer not the hub!). Once one has failed the load will be shared between the remaining ones and eventually the wheel will be at risk of detaching and taking the spacer with it. This is a very poor design. Trust me if you want a better stance, recycle these things into something useful like Coke cans and buy wheels with a more negative offset. And don't start threading nuts with the gun. Lead them on by hand. Personally I'd just replace the wheels with ones with a bigger offset. You eliminate the extra interface (which can cause bolt preload loss) and also make sit easier to check security of wheel nuts. Otherwise you have to remove the wheel and check twice the number of fasteners as with a different wheel. Yes bearing life will (on paper) have a slightly harder life but u less the offset change is over 30mm I'd suggest the way you drive has a bigger effect on bearing life. The nut issue is a far more significant safety issue, a bearing is a reliability issue. I'm a chartered engineer. Although I have worked on the railway for nearly 20 years, I've been a design engineer with Aston Martin and McLaren F1 team. The principles of bolted joints are the same whether its a car, train or washing machine. Unless the video editing has hidden something I would caution you against keeping these things on. Put it this way if anyone in my depots did this on a train I would not let it enter passenger service.
