How do you get around the fact you can't adjust the headlight aim when you load the rear?
The EAS on my P38 has been trouble free for years but it does need maintenance, on the other hand I have had broken metal springs on 2 cars.To be honest on my older car's that I had without the adjuster in the car I still towed caravans with them and never had any problems and never got stopped. I'm not sure what your problem is with converting a range rover to springs is and why everyone is upset with it. Like someone said the car companies put alot of money into the suspension to get it perfect but almost everyone has problems with the air ride so people are taking alternative routes.
There is a refurbish kit available for the compressor for not a lot of money.Yeah but 4 new springs are most likely going to last the life of the vehicle considering well my one is already 15 years old, could do the shocks at the same time and it will probably handle better. The pump alone is £400 odd
More chance of me converting to Muslim. Once you understand the EAS system they can be maintained at a reasonable cost as long as you have a reasonable IQ and are a little bit handy.A kid can sort it.Any successful spring conversions yet?
I think I would be checking the height sensors,do you have diagnostics?Ok then, let me put your IQ to the test.
Why does my l322 jack itself up to the max , topping out the suspension when I put a trailer on?
This morning it was fine with the trailer but the nose weight was a little light, this causes bad handling, a bit fish tail like.
So this afternoon I put a little bit more weight on the hitch and it goes bloody mental pumping it's self up to the moon.
The answer, I think, is take all the air ****e off and get some coil springs.
It does seem that finding the problem behind the odd behavior is more and more in need than chucking money at it and condemning a time proven system. You could hack it in and get a lovely Toyota prada/land cruiser instead?Ok then, let me put your IQ to the test.

You do need to get your bus looked at. It shouldn't do any of the problems your having. If you don't have any diagnostic tools then get some and it'll save you a ton of money and you'll soon be all over it and back in smiles for miles seatI would love a Toyota land cruiser but the 90s ones are £10,000 for an old rotter and 2000-2005 are more like £15,000 and they have air
How are you doing rrdt?I’m happy with my P38 on springs. Way I’ve done it atleast, is comfortable and capable.
BUT (a big but) go look or drive an L322 on springs - they are not right.
Don’t know wether it’s the weight, more likely how they assimilated the EAS more into the design. Like the live axle, replaced with the idea in mind that the EAS functions could cope with the lack of, for example.
