    Great video. Have you installed it yourself? Is it doable as a DIY project?

      Yes. I installed it myself. Took me about 5 hours altogether which sounds like a long time, but I was going super slow as I didn't want to break or lose any of the various interior panels' retaining clips, screws and the like. Definitely doable as a DIY project if you are minimally handy with tools and have removed trim panels before. The kit comes with fairly detailed install instructions and I also posted my experience (and a few photos) on a couple of US and UK based forums.

      It's easy enough to DIY (and comes with detailed installation instructions), but if you are not comfortable removing interior trim panels, installing switches and tucking away wires in your Defender, I guess any reputable car alarm / car stereo installer would work? There should be no shortage of those shops in California... It took me about 5 hours of time and minimal swearing / cussing in my garage to install the control module and supplied harness by the factory EAS module, run the switch cable and install the switch on the steering column. I was going super slow because I did not want to lose trim panel retainer clips or break anything along the way, but I could probably do it in 2/3 hours the second time around, or if I was minimally trained to install alarms and stereos in cars and trucks. landroverforums.com/forum/2020-defender-60/llams-electronic-height-controller-106539/

    Umber to great video..can you drive with the lower mode? And I am interested your ham antenna mount. Do you mind show me the model?

    • @ubonfante
      @ubonfante  3 года назад

      Yes, you can permanently drive in any of the LLAMS height controller modes (including low mode) regardless of your speed - unlike the factory height settings, which are speed dependent. The default setting for the LLAMS module is -20 mm for LOW mode, but you can change that to -35 mm during initial calibration if you want. The radio you see is GMRS, not HAM. Radio (model MXT275), hood lip antenna mount and ghost antenna are all Midland parts available at midlandusa.com, look for MicroMobile radios and accessories. landroverforums.com/forum/2020-defender-60/gmrs-radio-installation-106398/

      Thanks for sharing. I wonder driving @-35mm will affect the camber setting.@@ubonfante

      @@garsoncheung99 It probably would, if you drove around permanently lowered that way (or permanently raised 30 or 60 mm), and that's the main advantage of using a height controller such as the LLAMS, you only modify the stock height when you need to, and bring everything back to normal at the flick of a switch when you don't. Regarding the low mode for instance, I only drive lowered (by 20 mm) at high speed on a highway or up local mountain roads, where lowering the vehicle either saves some gas and/or improves stability and handling in the twisties, or combined with the car access height setting to drive into particularly low clearance garages. Otherwise I normally leave the switch in the off position.
