LLAMS height controller

Last week I installed the LLAMS height controller
Took about 45 min to install and calibrate
It gives you 3 new settings, based on the settings on the original ECU
-20, +30 and + 50

The settings are independent of speed, no speed limitations.

The On-Road + 50 is like the original Off-Road, but without the 50 Km/h limitation.

The Off-Road +50 is like the extended setting(which you cannot select in original) and is good up to 50 Km/h '08 RRS TDV8

Very cool, especially the fact about no speed limit with on-road+50. However, what's the point of on-road-20? Vadim A.

Nothing permanent, except maybe the switch, but it all depends where and how you install it.

Here is how I "temporarily" installed mine. I'm planning in covering it and the plugs with matching leather as soon as a get some spare



in the kit you get a box with the IC, a wiring harness and the switch.

You unplug 2 connectors from the suspensions ECU, plug them to the harness and plug the harness to the ECU.
Then connect a plug to the IC box.
To remove all it would take about 30 min, the main job is the removal and reassembly of the interior trim.
You also get a loop-back plug if you want to temporarily disable the add-on without removing it and the harness.

To look cool Wink
Also, is the setting that you automatically get when speed over 160 Km/h, so it probably improves a bit the handling at speed '08 RRS TDV8

On long highway driving, I have a tendency to go above 160km/h in order to have the car lower and then reduce speed to "normal" highway driving... Car is much nicer to drive at 130km/h in the "high speed" height

The effect on the air bags is identical whether using LLAMS or different rods, so any ride variations would be the same.

Don't know, ride seems good at -20, but did not use it extensively and not really on bad surfaces.
And anyway, the good thing is you can switch it on or off as you wish

Lespes, price is not so bad, sure not like some European vendors, is around 540 Australian Dollars + tax and shipping '08 RRS TDV8

United States 2006 Range Rover Sport 4.4 V8 HSE Chawton White

Just wanted to add a couple of photos of the installed switch for the LLAMS height controller I recently purchased for my 2006 NAS RRS, I picked the "blank" on the lower left of the steering wheel. On newer builds that place may not be available as that's where the electric steering column switch would be located, but for my 2006 with manual adjustments it worked out just fine. Short of losing the 12v receptacle or nearby ashtray, I could not find another suitable place to install the switch on the center console of the Sport, the "blanks" on the radio and climate control panel are too small for the switch.

It's a terrific hack, I can't wait to put it to the test on some upcoming off-road trips I have scheduled. Thanks Graeme for making this.
