I'm pretty sure that would be a load leveler, so I'm guessing its on a county. When its heavily loaded (or towing) it is supposed to push the rear end up to normal ride height.

I have no idea why its clunking, but if it's not doing what its supposed to you can take it off.

I think the first pic is something to do with the fan speeds, mine has just about given up as the electrical spade connectors have corroded

I was going to put a post up about the same item, as I was wondering if new ones would be available ??? I've done a sort of repair job on it but I'd prefer a new one if possible.

First up this electrical plug thingy.

Sorry, not on mine - which means it is probably something to do with the aircon.


Then this round fella. I'm guessing that's the vacuum thing for the non-working air con. Is it a problem that the white/yellow-green line coming out of the ball is perished in two? Is my vacuum escaping?

Again, not on mine, but it is certainly a vacuum reservoir, presumably for the aircon, and yes, you are almost certainly losing vacuum through the holes.

Load leveller as stated. Likely to be non-functioning and can be removed (need to fit standard rear springs if you do, but this may already have been done).
Caution - remove the entire unit, cutting the pushrod if the ball joint is rusted up. Do not attempt to disassemble it, as it is under very high pressure (or should be)

It is quite likely that it is not the thing clunking, as the ball joint on top of the axle is more likely to.

Hope that helps.

The first pic is the fan speed resisters block, the second one is the vacuum tank which stores vacuum for a/c controls and yes it could be a source of vacuum loss if the hose is perished and the third one is the load leveller. They usually start clunking when there is excessive play in either the top or bottom mount. Pretty sure the bottom mount is adjustable but I cant remember if the top one is also. If it is worn badly and you dont want to pay the exorbitant price for a new one it is easy to remove it entirely. I havent had one on my county for years and cant notice any difference.

looks like your 110 has Balls

I said exactly the same thing when I first got under mine, I called up Lokka and asked what the big set of brass gonads were, , you can imagine the reply I got, mine was definately not blue, it was spent of all fluids. Interesting yet irrelevant fact, it takes less time to newter a 110 than it does a pony, and on a 110 you could put them back on if you wish to do so. The Pony may not appreciate this.

Rangie load levellers do not have the reservoir attached, just the leveller itself. There may be something in this

Thanks all.

what springs do you use with the leveller in place?

are they different to std defender springs ?
