The goal is to create a more road-oriented Defender stance for wheel-focused builds while retaining the original air controls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA lower stance for a modern off-road SUV\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the adjustment remains mechanical, the installation does not introduce an additional control unit into the vehicle wiring.
