Land Rover Discovery 3 - Learn How To Fix Your Air Suspension - Change You r Struts
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
I changed my front air struts on my Land Rover Discovery 3 for under $500. You will be amazed at how easy it is to change your air suspension on a Land Rover LR3. The cost of changing the shocks are a major reason that keeps people from buying a Land Rover. After watching this video on how to install struts that fear will be erased.

Oxmanagain, this video saved me tons of time with two points: 1. Accessing the inboard mounting nut from the engine bay 2. Unclipping the hose from under the wheel liner to gain more length None of the other vids that explain this procedure cover this. Many thanks!
You’re the only one I’ve seen demonstrating removing the heat shield to access the hidden screw. Well done!
Definitely the most articulate with pin point precision instructions to maintain our land rovers by far from anyone on you tube I'v seen so far. Thank you sir for taking your time to do these videos for us, it really has given me the confidence to carry out this job myself. I am very pleased I have come by your filming of these great vehicles & your love of them really does shine through. Keep up the great work I am looking forward to the next one. Kind regards from Wales in the United Kingdom.

You’re the man! Removal of the airline clip was the secret sauce that I needed. I was struggling with the airline at first, and that totally changed after I watched the video. Great production quality too!
Great video. I also own a Land Rover but after years of constant leaks with the air system, I popped the rear hatch, removed the compressor and all the valve blocks and converted my air suspension system over to coils springs and been loving it ever since. Your removal procedure helped a lot, thanks my friend.

You are the super bomb! Just picked up an LR3 and armed with your very informative and detailed video, feel utterly confident I can replace the struts on my vehicle myself! Thank you for all you do!
I am always overwhelmed by the generosity of time and thoughtfulness you and so many other KZreadrs contribute. Great Vid Oxmanagain! Thanks I'll enter the Garage better prepared and more confident! Just gotta remember my Cars RHD!!
Excellent video! I’ve watched numerous other air strut replacement videos but none of them explain how the airline fitting works as clearly as you did. I finally have a clear understanding now and wouldn’t hesitate to replace the air struts myself. Thank You!
Your videos are fantastic! You show every step required and make it possible for me to do some of my own work on my lr3. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos!
Thank you so much for this detailed video. I got the part for $415, and although it took me several hours to replace it, I could not have done without your help. You gave me the confidence to tackle this job. and you saved me a lot of money. Thank you.
Great video. Very clear and easy to follow with good close ups. Love this channel. I’m looking at buying a used LR3 and yours are some of the best videos I’ve seen.
Outstanding! Clear and detailed instructions are a time saver. Especially accessing the bolt from the engine bay. Also like the way you slipped the wheel under the car as an insurance! Thanks again for posting these vids which have helped me through my suspension problems.
Seriously a great video with instructions on doing this. Great job! I have a Discovery 5 and was just wondering how hard it would be later. From looking into this video I can say you made it seem possible to do. I have changed other struts, but none with air ride and was just wondering how it was done. Great video sir. Like your other videos these are very helpful.
Just finished replacing my front air suspention. Your video was a great guide. Thank you for making this content.
Hey mate, this is a great video. Well shot, well explained. I'm working through my LR3 air suspension issues and after watching this, I know with confidence that I will be able to do this repair if required. Thanks again. That's a sub
This is the way all how to videos should be.. accurate with all steps clearly shown. Great video.. Thank you. 👍
Love your work! Sincerely appreciate the effort of putting this together. I just got myself into an LR4 and front suspension needs replacing. Thanks again!
Love your work and dedication. Considering getting myself a LR3, and I love your videos showcasing how you can fix things. Keep up the good work and don't give up !

Thank you, that was my goal because the cost at the dealership is very expensive in my opinion. I wanted to show people that if you have some time and some basic tools you can tackle this at home and save a lot of money. Plus, you get a big pat on the back. Thanks again for the compliment.
I absolutely love your LR3 videos! Thank you so much for your efforts.
Thank you for this. I saved a lot of time learning about how to deflate the air struts.
great video and thanks for all the videos on the LR3. I just bought one and thanks to you I ve learned alot.
Great video! I already replaced the rear patio to watching your video. I’m glad I watch this before tackling the front, because I don’t think I would’ve thought the back nuts would be accessible from the top! Also! You didn’t mention why you slid the tire under the car. This is an added safety! If the supports fail, the will land on the tire, not your chest😄 You da man! Thanks, again!

Hey great detail video!!!!! Thank you soooo much. I just got a 2012 lr4. In good condition, but this will happen sooner or later. So this is a helper.
I just used your instructions to replace the air struts on my 2007 Range Rover Sport and they worked perfectly! One thing that I did differently was NOT bleed the air out of the system. Instead I disconnected the battery and when I disconnected the air hose, the remaining air bled itself out of the system. Thank you so much.

Thanks for producing one of the most detailed KZread videos on replacing the LR3 front air strut. But a couple of points I think I might have missed or were not covered, (1) the battery or air compressor fuse should be disconnected first, (2) torque settings for the top and bottom bolts. I think it's 42 ft/lbs for the top and 184 ft/lb for the bottom.

Great video. Couple things to mention. The nuts on top can be very difficult to remove. Harbor freight sells low profile sockets that you can put a wrench on also. This makes the job so much easier. And great advice for removing the heat shield to get that rear bolt. Also keep in mind you cut off old air connector to fit new. Almost impossible to get enough line unless you unclip behind the wheel liner
Thank you for sharing big help and money saver doing it yourself. 🙂
Very well explained. Highly organized. These LRs are fun, as long as you can avoid a visit to dealer.

Great Video, i just picked up a 2006 LR3to replace my old Toyota Land Cruiser, and to go along with my Porsche 911 C4 and Audi A6, and i must say, the Japanese have an issue with metal quality like the British have an issue with plastic, rubber parts and in this case air suspension, otherwise, its a pretty awesome vehicle. Thanks for the videos, you definitely scored a bunch of likes.
