Were you guys trying to scare him off?? I just did this last year. Had all the major bits still attached to the car. Really only needed the bags and sensors. That was $671USD OEM and brand new, shipped to my door from somewhere near your side of the pond. Including the R clips @ $2 or so a...

Yup don’t touch that swivel nut!!! I only realized this AFTER, I got real intrigued about how it works and I started playing with it.. completely lost it’s zero.. had to start from scratch... oh well..you never forget the lessons you learn the hard way..And I won’t be forgetting this one

Just did my ball joints myself too. Seems like the toughest part of this job is aligning the hub.(without the tool of course). The slightest misalignment and the axle seal weeps oil. The margin of error is probably less than half a mm. Yeah that sucks.. Good work and good luck And...you know...

And.....Hes been bitten by the bug!:p Good luck, glad to hear you made it home ok. As for the compressor taking breaks in between pumping. I would start with the "door open" test and confirm efficacy of the pump. 7-8 mins from 0PSI is good condition. Really helps to have a inline gauge for...

Look at the install instruction for the link I sent. Pretty much explains everything.

Valve block is under the bonnet. Black box with "EAS" stamped on it. Its easier to access in the down condition than normal:p You only need the valves, an air source, and a flat head screwdriver helps.

On the splined area that I cleaned up. It goes into the wheel bearing.

I once had to drive roughly 100 miles home on 3 airbags, 3 shocks and a piece of a log. Some of it (10miles)was rough trail coming down the mountain in the dark..but the rest was 60mph on the freeway. Not fun, at all... Cant imagine doing 150miles on all four bump stops... If you can get a...
