A bit of a rant....

<< < (3/4) > >>

Range Rover Blues:
I've taken to cutting the gaitors roughly in half, so they just reach the top of the damper body when at rest.  Theyt protect the shiny chrome shaft from stone-chips which is wgat starts the corrosion on mine anyway but as siad they also keep the slaty crud in place, unless they are a nice loose fit which mine are, so I can hose them off withough having to take a wheel off.  On the front I don't bother with gaitors at all on the coil-over but I do on the EAS.

lenrover:
Pro comp!!! :smack:

Never had them long enough for corrosion to set in without breaking them first  :evil:

Range Rover Blues:
I have the opposite problem, my first set got so rusty they ruined the seals and leaked :roll:

Any clues as to how yours have failed? Some folk gets years of life out of Pro-comps, some folk get weeks. Just wondering if they're any patterns to the failures (I've got a fair collection of Pro-comps so it's a matter close to my heart and my wallet!).

Any comments appreciated! PMs fine.

Cheers

Defender:
I must admit I've never broken the Pro-Comps on either my old Series 3 or the Defender I now have. The chrome on the piston rods always rusts & damages the seals. I don't fit the rubber gaitors as they tend to collect mud & debris.
