Thread: GOE Height Sensor Rods

The rods have a standard height hole,so you can use the extended height where you need it and revert to standard after.
If you are going outback have you got a decent fault diagnosis reader???
If not look at a Idtool.It will do all the height raising/speed raising etc plus you have the diagnosis tool.Cost is similar to the Llams.
This group buy is closed,prices are similar due to AUD fluctuation.

Hi

I have used the Rods on the off road setting crossing the Simpson as well as on all High Country trips. I set them back to normal height when doing highway speed. I hardly exceed 60 kmph when I am on the off road setting. Never had problems with CV nor damage to the driveline.

Gordon can inform on this, but I think the main issue is when you drive at highway speed with the rods on off road setting?

Very interesting, that sounds quite good. Looks like an extremely detailed tool.

Thanks.

I use the All Height feature of IIDTool to achieve the same effect electronically. Takes 30 seconds - plug in, set value, unplug.

X3 on the gap iid , Bluetooth version is worth the extra , and as LandyAndy pointed out , you really want a diagnostic tool on a trip like that , duckworths do a really good price on the BT version

I agree regarding the iiD tool and have a BT one myself.
I also have Llams to take care of height control with even more convenience than the iiD tool.

However, regarding your original question about vehicle damage .....

Leaving your vehicle at higher than normal ride height for extended periods at high speed will lead to reduced lifespan on CVs, etc.
This has nothing to do with how the height is set (rods/iiD/llams).

But the slower speeds offroad such as Simpson or VHC or whatever will not be as severe.
But even then I always go back to normal height whenever it's practical to do so and this is the real advantage of Llams.
It is so easy and quick to change height without stopping and/or looking at any screen.

Cheers,
Scott

What they're saying is if you get the IID tool don't get the rods

Just to throw it in the mix. I don't do Sand as a rule at +50.
I run at +30mm using Llams (which is in cab adjustable)

I ordered the rods before a Simpson desert trip,and they didn't arrive in time.

I did the trip,across and back fully loaded, no problems at all without them.
