I’ve been saying this for years. I simply can’t understand why people are advised to throw money away on maintaining or repairing ACE, when there is a cheap and very proficient work around. ACE is a very good system, but this or standard ARB’s...
Final update.
After a few weeks of motoring I cannot detect any difference in handling between the original ACE system on my D2 and the now inert roll bars fitted. So job done and highly recommended to other in the same situation.
Hi, I am suffering the same issue and as you say there seems to be quite a few simple repair kits on EBay, but only this one specifically for DS2s. Based upon replacing both of them it would be $44 about £32 for two small rollers. Ouch!

It's not a Land Rover item as far as I am aware.
Any suggestion where I might obtain a replacement based either on the part number or the...
After two weeks the LR is back on the road, the final bits having arrived this morning. To be honest I was not expecting to have to do this job, even though the ACE light had been illuminating on several occasions over the last year. This was the...
