anybody tried these? They seem very cheap

 

Put some on my 05 VDP a few years ago. Ride is a little stiff and high. Otherwise fine.

 

That’s a very cheap fix then👍👍👍👍

 

I’ll get some and report what they’re like

 

Keep in mind that they won't have the CATS bypass piece that Arnott supplies with theirs, so you will have a permanent yellow light on the dash display.

 

Oh, fair enough, how much are the arnotts?

 

Well... more. I paid a little over 1200 US$ for my set last year.

Couldn't be happier, though. The air system was pretty much a complete loss, with lots of water in the system, so lots of corrosion.

I've only seen two companies that make the CATS bypass module to go with their shocks, Arnott and I think Strutmasters, but I'm not sure Strutmasters covers all the XJ models.

 

you don’t need a bypass module if you have an x350 (pre-06). let us know how it sits, i put a set of s-type struts on and the fitment and ride is impeccable.

Ahh that’s interesting, I’ll have a read of that👍 Thank you.

 

I pulled the suspension relay and a 10 amp fuse, no lights Sorry I can't remember which fuse. Got the info somewhere on this forum but cant remember where either. Old age and car is in AZ, won't see until Dec.

 

Changed air filter pollen filter, then for my reward a coil failed so fitted a new one. The left bank looking from under the bonnet breather pipe was looking in bad condition and moving about collapsing so I cut the middle six inches out and put some copper pipe with jubilee clips on it, it will not collapse again, only to be again greeted with restricted performance but deleted that and it seems to be ok again, I’ve only had it a week but I’m at war with it I will make it perfect👍
