Gday All
I know its here but buggered if I can find it. There was a post which had the parts and instructions on fitting the large emerg air up kit.
If someone knows the thread or has a copy could you please point me to it. I am about to make up the kit but just wanted to check a couple of things.
Thanks and Cheers

You're welcome.
I set mine up slightly differently in the rear in that I have the right rear line being accessed via the right rear access compartment, not the left side one. I was able to do this because I removed the oem jack holder. This leaves heaps of space for spares etc.
For seven seat cars that were fitted with the oem towbar, the towbar assembly bracket is fitted in the left rear access compartment. It is worth removing this if you've either replaced the towbar with a Mitch Hitch or just leave it on the car full time anyway. The bracket weighs several tons (only a slight exaggeration!) and takes up valuable space that can be better utilised for spares etc. To remove it, you need to remove the whole panel first. Easy, but a bit daunting if pulling your new Landrover to pieces is a tad beyond your comfort zone.

Given we can no longer buy this kit - does anyone know what the specs and sizes are on the fittings used?
Looks to be an easy kit to source the parts and make yourself.
I plan to make up a kit in the next week ,just needed to check a few things is why I needed the instructions to check.
The only hard part looks to be getting the correct fitting to suit the front valve block. I have spare front and rear air struts so can get the fittings for those easy, altho you don't access the front strut anyway , so you only replace the rear fitting with a 90 and then just some 6mm high pressure air line plus some quick connectors and shredder valves.

A get out of jail Bodgetastic electrical fix worth watching here may suit some suspension scenarios to keep you moving to next town. Maybe a lot faster than messing with air lines and simply understanding the job of this relay makes testing and fault finding of EAS and compressor problems a lot easier.
Note: the fault code here is a stuck compressor exhaust valve. Not all EAS faults will drop the suspension to bump stops. In my case when the fuse blew and the compressor stopped I had fault lights and Normal Height Only warnings but the air stayed in the system for quite a few days. Presumably because the rest of the system felt it was ok.

Worth carrying these inexpensive fuses and relay for the EAS motor in your spares. The fuse links much harder to find then the normal style small fuses I found out recently. SCA and Repco etc carry 30 and 40 amp but 60 amp not so much.
