is it part of the fuel system?.. located on the O/S chassis under the B pillar... as you can see its leaking slightly so needs sorting.. would it be easier to repair or replace? once i know what it is of course

Awesome, ACE was already disconnected when i got it .. I should remove this then and all the ace pipes etc... what about the actuators on each axle, do people usually leave them on or take them off also? just seem extra weight for nothing.

I removed all the ace off mine, do it carefully and you might be able to sell some of the decent bits

I've left all mine on and it seems fine, hoping to repair it soon, or maybe not, who knows. Seen some stuff about replacing it with damping thingy me bobs but tbh i haven't noticed much of a difference without it.
