Looking at my suspension, the little plastic rods  seem to be permanently fixed to the actuator. Is there a kit available to suit a 2011 D4?

The kit is for all models. The rods do come off however they are tight and some lube helps a lot.

Thanks Geedublya,
Are the rods just a press fit? If so, they seem quite vulnerable.

The original rods are very tight and it would be difficult to dislodge. The GOE rods have a lot less surface area and are easier to remove for swapping heights. It would be possible to dislodge one though unusual.

I used them on my 2011 D4.  I'd spray the originals before taking them off.

Does anyone know if GOE rods fit a FFRR tdv8?  TR controls look identical to a D4.

Best to double-check with Gordon (GGHaggis) to see if they are the right length for a FFRR.

They're a different size - I should have some more made up after Christmas. Email me if you need details.
Cheers,
