Thread: 2.5" lift

I am also thinking about getting a LLAMS - one thing I do not like is the little knob that controls it - it is a shame the designers did not take into account the dash console layout of the disco and RRS and design something that looks as if it is original and takes into account available space - I see it fits in OK in the disco but not the RRS. On both there are blank panels around the radio/aircon controls but they will not fit the switch. On the RRS the switch cannot fit anywhere near the original height controller and about the only place that might work is in a spot on the steering column just below the indicator stalk. Operation will have to be by feel rather than site as it will be difficult to see from the drivers seat.

Other than that I think it is a great concept and once I recover from Xmas expenses I will look at getting one in my car.

Is there a retailer in victoria that will fit it?

There's a limit to how high the suspension can be raised, so 1 or the other to my way of thinking.

I expect any LR workshop could do it. IIRC Ritters get their ecu upgrades from DPL so why not Llams kits too and might be able to do a better all-up price than if you purchased a kit yourself then had them fit it.

The knob is easily replaced. You might prefer the larger/fancier Jaycar knob HK7740 - it looks quite at home amongst D4 knobs. I agree about not having a handy spot to mount the switch in the RRS though and the switch being a 25mm diameter rotary switch doesn't make the job any easier.

Reading the installation instructions am I correct in thinking that the unit itself is basically plug in and the harder bit is to work where and how to mount the switch?
