    LR3 Air to Coil conversion.....one year later.

    Get LLAMs fitted to the EAS vehicle and you can realise its full capability without speed and height restrictions.

    LR3 cracked dashboard thread

    My RRS with its dash cover on - in my view looks good and works well.

    LR3 / Discovery 3 Coil Conversion +2" Question

    If your wheel travel is being limited by the shock travel then you will soon wreck your shocks. OME should be able to tell you if your shocks are correct for their springs or at least give you specs. Garry

    LR3 Air to Coil conversion.....one year later.

    The cap on the end of the desiccant chamber of the Hitachi compressor is plastic and can develop a microscopic crack between the two pipe inlets/outlets causing a loss of air when the compressor is running. As part of some rebuild kits or as an individual part you can buy metal caps that do not...

    1979 Stage 1 my new ride

    The Stage 1s are a great vehicle - nice to drive - however the diesel 3.9 version is even better than the already great 3.5 petrol.

    LR3 Air to Coil conversion.....one year later.

    Well my car is 13 years old and has covered 190,000km with no unexpected EAS issues. I have replaced the desiccant in my original Hitachi and replaced the plastic cap with a metal one - these actions in my views should be included as service items. My lack of EAS issues is consistent with...

    I would just duplicate what suspension the Diesel Range Rover Classic of the same era had fitted.

    Anything can break down. I have had a RRS for 10 years and offroad it all the time - I have had a compressor issue and fixed it myself at home - the way to manage your air system is to know your air system. I have LLAMs to manage height changes, and about the only other thing I would consider...

    Help Me Build A Defender 110 Please

    I would have to agree - US prices are completely out of step with prices elsewhere in the world. Hence many of our Australian 110s/Defender/Perentie Landrovers are being purchased at a fraction of the US price and being exported to the US.

    Tricking the Air Suspension in a Range?

    I prefer to use LLAMs https://www.llams.com.au/ as it allows you to use the full range of the suspension without the speed restriction and having the suspension constantly jacked up. I can drive around normally with my suspension at 20mm below onroad height or at the push of a button go the the...

    LR4 Coil conversion?

    Ok if you say so - but never seen or heard of them and never saw any for sale. Even the commercial models came with air suspension.

    LR4 Coil conversion?

    The D4 never had coils from the factory - was only very early D3s that had coils on the base model.

    Air suspension and Alignmets

    Having the door open does nothing - the vehicle will still self level with the door open - tested this yesterday when changing a tyre and had the door open - changed about 10 times as i jacked up with door open - this myth comes from the fact that height changes generated by the height switch...

    LR3/LR4: How to find the coveted rear locking diff

    You might want to recheck that as it comes up on the screen even if you don't have lockers - the only way to confirm is to climb under the car and have a look for an actuator on top of the diff. The open diff does not have that actuator on top of the diff, the e diff does as per the pic.

    ARB is an Australian company where I come from and where the majority of ARB stuff is made (in Melbourne) - a constant complaint in Australia is that they cater mainly for the popular Japanese utes that are sold here and little dedicated accessories are made for Land Rover - yes you can get bars...

    I wouldn't hold your breath for anything from ARB coming out quickly - ARB are Japper focused and LR are not a product they put much effort into.
