LR3 front air suspension swap
 
I am planning on replacing both front air suspensions on my 2006 LR3 and was wondering if I should buy the genuine Land Rover or get the Arnott.

Reason why I am replacing both is that the front driver side suspension is leaking. I did check the valve block and the air line connections for leaks and did not see anything wrong. The truck height drops overnight on the driver side, even with battery disconnected.

Does anyone have any feed back on the Arnott or any advice on going one way or the other?

I am planning on doing the job myself, any tips are welcome.

Thanks for your input.

You can do just a bag kit if you want. but lots of them have rust issues so its a fair idea to do the strut as well. Arnott has good track record with land rover airbags. new ones are made from a delco

Update and bad front valve block
 
I have been digging into the drop on one side issue and found out that if there was no apparent leak that could be related to the front air valve block.

Anyway I decided to replace the block first before to dump $ 800 in new suspension.

Good news no overnight drop after the block was changed.

So it was probably an internal leak that was the cause of the suspension drop issue.

Replacement was pretty easy too.
