Reply With QuoteI have seen it done in Iceland. On LR and GU axles, all internal. A very neat set up. It can be done but there is heaps of work involved.m

it is but unless your willing to accept
1. Portal conversion
2. External hub lines.
its horrendously expensive and prone to leaks.

right, so I'll stick to on-board air compressor with extension hose then

majority in Iceland do not run portals Dave
RoverLord
From what I've seen.
the ones that run tubbed guards to get the tyres on dont have protals (visibly the wheel center appears to be within a few inchs of normal height)
the ones that run a lift to get the clearance are the ones with portals, I also think those are on either volvo or mog axles anyway..

I have seen hardly any with portals, but many with big lift running 38s and up with normal axles. They do go a long way to make them road legal. Even a few brand new LR discos got sorted straight from/through the dealer and mod shop.

SubscriberThe ones I saw in Iceland have been fitted to standard axles, not portals.m

So - if it is "easy" on portal axles, how are these done?

SubscriberJust for information, the Australian Air CTIS system is about $7500, plus $1200 for fitting.
It works well, the only downside I can see are the hoses proturuding out wider than the vehicle, but apparently they rarely get disconnected.
I had a vehicle fitted with this system a few months ago: Fitting-Air-CTI
The guys who run the company are excellent to deal with and I can highly recommend them.
Cheers
