Question Where can I buy OEM lift rods?

I have Johnson Rods installed on my Disco' 4 at the moment. I used to swap them out when driving at my farm or the like. The motor exploded a couple of years ago while the lift rods were installed. Over the course of the two years, two shops and three motors it took to get it back on the road, the OEM lift rods were discarded from trunk. The truck sat far too high, beyond extended height when the new motor was installed. A resetting of the software lowered it a little, but not as far as it should be and the rear is far higher than the front--the thing is jacked up and unsafe, and needs an alignment.

Does anyone know where I can buy some factory height rods without the entire assembly? Used ones or aftermarket would be just fine.
Thanks for your help.

"just the arms"? Doesn't the the LR Parts catalogue only shows the complete assembly?

The rods come as part of the sensors…. There isn’t a separate part number for each, unfortunately.

I'm pretty sure there are quite a few people who have upgraded to lift rods that have a pair they'd give you for shipping costs. I'd post something in the classifieds. You'll probably have better luck on Land Rover World (.org)...their LR3/4 community is way more active.

Thanks for the replies.

Yes, LR only sells the whole assemblies. Not the rods or "arms" alone.
I thought I would get a quick hit from the classified ad I posted at the same time as this. No such luck.

I will try crossposting on LRW.
