Looking forward to seeing your write-up and review of the install process, and subsequent comparison of ride and handling differences.
It was a secondhand unit from an LR wrecker, AJG Spares, in Esk, Qld. Tony from there has been very helpful in getting the parts shipped. It looks like he sent them from aussiegregmac's post office this morning. :)
I hope the springs are still OK. I'll leave all the EAS stuff in place so it can be restored if needs be.

As one of the P38 aulro Illuminati, it would truly be a dark day if you went over to the darkside :eek:
I like look of that air control system I must say.
Also a good reminder to carry a 150 PSI compressor onboard
I still have Gen3 hunger, but currently my wallet has been P38'd :angel:
Best of luck getting it sorted out .. the EAS that is :p

Oh bother... What is happening to this world?
I'm on 4 different Facebook p38 forums. Does that mean I'm addicted to them? As well as a few land rover sites :angel:

Dont they all end up posting the same crap? Please telle aulro is best and I dont need to change allegence!
I did a drivers side rear bag change on the side of a sandy track on Fraser, thankfully I has a highlift jack to use under the tow hitch to get the height and an OEM bag in my spares set.
The R clip had sheared off from under the Arnott III and let it lift up and roll forward, tearing the bag out of the crimp ring with a bang and a hissssss. The crimp may be better for sealing the air inside but at least the OEM ones can be put back together and re-inflated.
Anyway, it took over an hour to swap out, mostly due to having to get up and wait every time another vehicle wanted to squeeze past (it was a dangerous spot to be stuck)
I've recently fitted a dash switch to operate the EAS timer relay so I can freeze the EAS in any state and I now carry some extra tubing and push fit schrader valves so I can build an emergency bypass for any bag if needed.
Sure, coils would need less planning but to lose the magic carpet ride and self levelling would be too much to pay.
