Hello, i bought the bushings for the rear shock absorbers because there is some noise from the worn ones… but yesterday while i was cleaning my 1992 Daimler , i saw in the boot a tag that specifies that the car is equipped with SLS suspensions. How i check if my car has been converted to normal suspensions ? i read that most of the XJ40 have been converted in the time… but how to be shure?
Hi,
Try to see whether:
- The rear shocks have (or not) a hydraulic line getting into them on the top as indicator it’s a SLS system (or not)
In case they are not connected to the hydraulic system check that the conversion has been properly done -at least from the electric/hydraulic point of view.
- The silver valve body front right of the engine bay is blinded (pipe that would go towards the rear suspension.
- The connector rear left wishbone is disconnected and/or the cables properly isolated.
Springs should also have been changed and (ideally) levelling headlamps fitted (unlikely).
Best,
Ll.
