Some feedback on the smaller size spacers fitted on Saturday. I took a small side road with a few potholes, nothing serious, and I don't really notice much difference in stiffness to be honest. I have only got the spacers up front to get the nose higher and level after fitting the rear air bags, so far I am very happy still haven't done the measurements yet, but really don't notice a harder ride. To me it feels very much the same. I also replaced my rear shocks, mine were seriously buggered at the same time.

Just a note that the guys from Autoquip said my alignment is set to max at current, not sure about the other guys feedback in this regard.

Hi David,

I just saw your pics of the airbag valve points on the bracket for the towbar electrics.

My immediate response was - That's neat (my valve points are hidden away a bit further back in a not very clever / not very accessible place).

But then I thought maybe not - I seem to bend that bracket on many trips and I wouldn't want to lose air pressure because of damage to the air pipes. I have been thinking about relocating my towbar electrics above the level of the tow ball. If I do that then I will surely steal your idea.
