Look at Australian systems.
They seem to be the leaders.  |

I know VB Air recently put the VB-FullAir 4C on a Defender. Although quality does have its price I doubt you will be happy with its pricing.

It might of helped if the vid had been uploaded correctly and not in reverse. Don't make old people mad.
We don't like being old in the first place, so it doesn't take much to  us off.

yes, it has been developed, please do not ask me any commercial questions as that would be against forum rules but tim @ mobile centre can help.

Hi Erik,
got one fitted on my 110. It's the VB air suspension kit developed / fitted by Jacco Speelman from JSAutomotive. It drives amazingly well, both on road and off road (although I don't do anything extreme). Can really recommend it and parking garages become accessible if they have a minimum height of 1.95m.

Ekuiken, is there a particular reason you want to go down the air suspension route?
The only time I am a fan is if you drive with a lot of weight in the car (hence the self leveling bit). Only the really needed at the back - D2 style. What I don't like is:- When you lift for off road suspension becomes harder (just what you don't want). When you lower for on road the suspension gets softer! Bags can be punctured or unseated by mud. Because of cost they tend not to be changed as a service item, therefore failure leaves that corner on the deck. (Metal springs tend to wear more progressively - and last longer). Mark. |

Being able to acces parking garages with a max hight of 1.95 does sound interesting however...

I know Geba (Land Rover dealer) did it on a 110.
Main reason it get lower for access in parking garages. My car has Alive Tuning springs with Bilstein shockers, it lowered in the back by 2 inches and 1 inch at the front. Bringing the height just under 2 mtr, but that is still not enough for most parkings in Rotterdam.. --------------------- Erik Kuiken - The Netherlands 2013 Defender 110 X-Tech SE (Alive tuned) 2013 Volvo V60 D6 Plug in hybrid 1936 Petersen Blower Bentley 2003 Mercedes SL 55 AMG 1968 Jaguar MK2 3.4 rally 1969 Volvo 123GT (2) 1974 Citroen 2CV6 |

Any updates about this?? VB is nice but very expensive. Improved P38 parts combined with a generic kit would be much cheaper. But can't find any specific info on the web. So I am curious if you already found a solution
