Loaded it with ramps and tools, drove to my friend's place and (believe it or not) fixed his Toyota! Ha! Land Rover rescues Toyota! It had to happen one day. Have that naysayers! I also ordered replacement air springs for the rear as I have a feeling that they're original units. If they...

You'll need a compressor to seat the bag on the seals when you put it back on, takes about 40-50psi I think. Probably good to have a lovely assistant around to hold the strut up while you pull the bag down at the base and inflate it a bit too. Doing them on your own isn't easy. I'm sure it...

It's three large O rings and spacers which I'd be curious as to why it would even fail there and you'll have to go to the effort of stripping it completely to get to them. I'm not confident enough to say one way or the other whether or not these are the main seal or a sort of secondary seal...

That's where the bag is supposed to seal to the strut itself. It has a set of O-Rings (3x for memory) and plastic spacers to create the seal. It looks as thought strut is fairly new by the condition of the paint there. I'd be inclined to just fit a new airbag, it's a pretty easy job on these...

This is good news I think. The car agrees with the situation by the look of it. The flashing red line is the one above the wheel (the arch height?), I'm not that familiar with the earlier screen so I'm just trying to get it clear in my mind. The rears are showing as being in line with the...

Interesting and timely this; my friend had an issue with his this weekend where the compressor was overheating but his car wouldn't lower. It won't be the same for yours but we can use some of the same troubleshooting steps. I'm not sure how your exhaust mod would stop it overheating, the...

It's brake pipe, very common on those. Kits are available, change them both sides. Brake Pipe

I'd say you'll be putting a gearbox in it, it seems to be the weakest link on the early cars and as BiB has suggested, a couple of grand seems to be about the sum to do it properly. Look at it this way though, you've got an early car which (I personally think) has aged very well now, if it's...

Trying to make amends for earlier, have a look at this video of a valve block strip down on an LR3/4. I think it's the same as the one in the L322. Interestingly this one is slightly stuck on the balance between the left and right air springs. Around 5:20 you see all the silica dust in there...

I'm pleased you've edited that!

Oh. My. God! That wasn't a dare! Get ready. @LR-hobbs I'm so sorry we're hijacking this thread and derailing it! Mark and I will now have to personally find the answers to your questions to try and get this back on track.

I think this is how it was done on the older stuff. It's unlikely that you'll be pulling too much amperage by adding trailer lights. The bypass relay is mainly used on newer vehicles that will throw bulb failure warnings if the resistance is wrong. The relay takes a micro pulse from the car...

Can't believe you didn't just tag him! We need another 60 pages of "Gotcha questions" whatever they are. :)

Still can't get the link to work. Search for this on eBay: Universal 7 Way Bypass Relay PCT ZR2500 Towing Interface Inc Fog Cut Out Item number 202439920209

No idea why that link won't link. Here's the long version...
