Keeping things really simple with our overland build, sourced a cheap roof rack from Poland and thinking of a portable power station for our accessory power, no messing about with second batteries and charge controllers etc. look forward to seeing what you do next.

Ben, was this a new roof rack from Poland, do you have a link please?

Appreciate the readly link. Never heard of it but definitely something as a family we would use. Subbed 👍

Love Front Runner racks. Looking forward to seeing what you do with the car. Also - don't forget the absolute most important Front Runner roof rack accessory. The bottle opener. edit. You'll need three. One for the back and one for each side :)

Well had stainless steer box with wing nuts mounted about exhaust one could put food in and cook it on the move. On side of roof rack we had 2 soil stack pipes on each side with water and tap and shower on it. We in back we had more soil stack pipes together with pump and top filler screw on which long range fuel tanks

If you're down near Kerry, check out ladies view, its a lovely drive. Came across it after taking a wrong turn on my first holiday in the L322. You won't be disappointed!

Way da go Sam, looking forward to this series 👍

Good job!

Sam, I love where your heads at on this plan! I know that you will do an awesome job with it! Thanks for the great videos you do!

Nice one Sam, can‘t wait for the next one. I‘m also converting my L322 into an Overlander.

This is going to be a great series!

Best 4x4 ever

Nice front runner roof rack , but the rear spot light qubes need to go doesn't compliment the roof rack by being taller you need rhe light bar that mounts flush with roof rack to give the range rover a cleaner look 😊

Sam, you've done superbly with the upgrades. It looks new, I'm inspired and replicating the same with my 07 L322.

Yeeeeeaaaaasssss! Overland / work truck L322 ftw!

I was looking at all that firewood & thinking how much you could get in the rangey 🤣

As someone who detailed cars I find the best way to apply prewash is from bottom to top it helps stop run marks! Love the channel and your videos

Sam, you might want to go back and replace those stainless steel bolts. Stainless steel and aluminium touching eachother is not a good idea, this may cause galvanic corrosion. Better use galvanised fasteners as zinc and aluminium are closer to eachother in the galvanic series.

I bet the RR is coming in handy with all the snow today Sam. Keep up the great work, love everything about this, drone, narration & the sound track is killer.

Great video and looking forward to the next ones, going to look awesome. 👍👍👍👍

Definitely a fan of this series! Have to say I miss my L322 but got something similar on the way soon

Hi Sam, great vid looking forward to the whole series, maybe you'll become Ireland's specialist L322 conversation expert. The towbar space is perfect for aux battery, my auto spark installed a motorsport battery in there, fully sealed so no need to vent fumes, no need for switch charging as it's far enough away from starter motor, the fat + running to boot fusebox is enough without running new cables. It's an Odyssey Extreme, I think 20ah, can't read side as it's bolted in. Pricey but worth it, mine's in two years and never had problem, always feel confident daily pre heater use won't kill main batt

Hi Sam, largely due to your channel - I've just picked up a rather cheap L322 (2010 TDV8 4.4 Autobiography) - cheers for the inspiration!

Did you make a choice on the roof tent yet? I have exactly the same l323 and front runner rack. I was hoping the Alu cab gen r3 but seems it would overhang too much on the front due to the tail gate needing to open. I am aiming for a tent that I can put solar panels on top of for my home made solar generator. So I’m super keen to see what tent you ended up going with :)

I assume by the end of this series you will be driving over those logs…one handed…?!😀

Hey Sam. if you want to charge the second battery, you will have to run a cable from the start battery, through the firewall and by pass the canbus system. Tapping into the 12v power supply on the rear fuse board won’t trigger the charge for the second battery. Tried it, won;t work. Mark

@SamsMotors

Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the tip Mark! Though I’m a bit confused as the big 25mm2 cable that goes into the rear junction box comes direct from the main battery via a 250 amp fuse. I can’t see how it would be any different running a separate cable? I can understand that the 2nd battery voltage might not trigger the smart alternator to charge though, as it will be reading the main battery voltage. 🤔

With the roof rack fitted, do you get a lot of noise while driving fast on the highway?

@SamsMotors

It’s not silent but with the wind deflectors fitted correctly on the front, it’s not very noticeable. Without the deflectors, or with the fitted incorrectly, it can absolutely howl and vibrate like crazy. When I first fitted it, I thought my roof was going to fly off because of the noise and vibration it made. But after adjusting it all a few times, it’s very quiet now.

This was one of the warmest winters with - 30 for long weeks. RR can cause lots of problems with air suspension, but how badly in such poor weather conditions I don't know. There is no chance to keep a car all the time in heated garage. This is why I thought maybe there is a chance to get rid of them :)

@@MrLeonardodv It should work fine in those temperatures, but it will definitely need to be in good shape to avoid any problems. Compressor: will need to be performing like new, if it's worn it will definitely struggle. Air springs: would renew as a matter of course - rubber will be inflexible at that temperature so I would replace any aged bags with new genuine or Bilstein items etc. Dryer: The dryer will need to be in good order as you want to avoid moisture in the system which will freeze at those temperatures and cause problems with valves etc. The dryer can be replaced (VUB504700) or refurbished with new desiccant and seal etc.
