I called Arnott and they siad it is probably just one defective air shock dragging the other one down. They are going to send me on new air shock and I will try that. Thanks for the advice.

????? Curious why you went back to air suspension. Was it something you didn't like about the conversion?

ATL BRIT has a kit for $1000 that supposedly replaces everything you need to replace. Any comments on that kit?

Seems that you get the Air Suspension Fault code cleared Before you do the conversion, and the message stays off the dashboard then.

I was skeptical about the SLS at first, but I really like it now. I've owned the Disco for about 9 months now and have had no issues with the SLS. I'll keep it going as long as it's feasable.

Big Jim, what's SLS? Also, the wheel arches on your signature pic's truck are like those on my LR3; they seem to be about an inch higher than the tires while the fronts are about 3".

Are you getting any lights on the dash? Was that taken in OEM form, or after conversion to shocks?

SLS stands for Self Leveling Suspension, Land Rovers name for rear air springs. Mine works fine with no issues.

You also need the dealer to cancel the SLS in the computer, otherwise it will beep like crazy.

The peace of mind alone is worth ten times the price of the spring conversion. Had ACE and converted to an Old Man Emu lift with coils all around with no problem at all.
