Thread: Sagging front end

I thought the air suspension should be albe to cope with extra weight (estimated to be 80kg) given the rear end can cope with 350kg additional weight with a trailer attached.

Hi Trif,
Had my OL bar on for 18 months now. Didn't notice any difference when fitted, and don't now.

Cheers, Craig

It will adjust back to where it was automatically. If you want to trim it up a bit, you will need to invest in a Faultmate. There is quite a variation ( I think + or - 25mm ) available to 'finetune ' the std height settings. I have adjusted mine up about 10mm with a Faultmate.

As we get older all the front ends sag
