The LC 200 had a saggy arse every day - coils and heavy in the rear end a/c dual wheel carrier and super duper sized (Exon Valdis class) long range fuel tank.

I can't wait to go back up there again... such a great spot!

Aside from the morning saggy arse no functionality was lost once the engine was running.

Just for the record, a leak in the EAS line was found in the rear passenger suspension system. The same location the faults were being raised according to the IID tool. Not sure if such a small leak would be responsible for the suspension faults but anyway, no more morning saggy arse.

Was it rubbing on something or leaking at a fitting?

Mine has a sagged front,i think it is the valve block.Arse seems OK

Leaking fitting. Just replaced it with a new one, all good.

Hi Beamin, was that by any chance George Yallop that you hitched with? I know his son, who I think would probably interested to have a yarn with you if you were up for it?

Thanks - weird, I thought his profile said last activity in July this year. Is anyone mates with him offline?
