Thread: WDH D2 SLS use it or not?

our ride is still very good especially after the springs settle in. I have put ours into some good cornering not as fast as a car but it would be nearly up there and the car feal rock solid, i think the ACE takes care of this, even off road the car has been no different to airbags, i must admit i do miss the ability to raise the bum in some instances, another thing you may be able to look at is springs at normal ride hieght and a set of pollies inside the springs, it would be a little more but would be best of both worlds.

Thanks Robbo I will ring them myself to find out whether they are still available. Thanks Mark but my problem is I dont have the ACE in mine,lol yeah its good to be able to lift the rear up with the push of a button. I am keen on pollies as well as springs.

Went to Hunter L/R yesterday (never to return) to find out about the RAA527 kit. The bloke looked on the computer and yes they are available but they cost $1009 + gst. I think I will check out what Hayman Reece has to offer.

I have pulled an 1800kg single axle van for the last 10 years with a D2 and SLS. The first 5 years no WDH and the last 5 with a WDH. It sat pretty well without the WDH but with WDH there is a lot more front brake action and better steering particularly on dirt roads so I am a believer. That all said I was in a bit of a rush about 3 weeks ago when I put the van on and could not be bothered setting it all up again for the WDH. The hitch had been used with another car and I just did not have the time to be bothered with it. I went on the back roads about 4hrs of tight twisting narrow roads with potholes and gravel sections. I could tell I did not have the WDH but it was not all bad. Towing this van with the D2 has been fantastic none of the stability issues mentioned above.

I am just going on gut instinct but I recon the standard hitch receiver looks pretty solid to me and would not be in any rush to replace it. Just coz LR have not tested it with a WDH means they just want to make it clear that they are not liable for anything that may go wrong, not that there is a reason for it to go wrong!
