My rear air spring has developed a squeak and I need to remove it to investigate. I was just wondering if anyone knew of a guide of how to do it, or any tips from those that have? As my searches have drawn a blank on it.

The squeak is most likely from the rear rose bushes

As above it is likely the bushes that are squeeking. There is a Wiki on here for the part numbers and a how to.

Just out of intrest though, From those who have replaced the rear air spring how did you go about it? I will be doing mine in a few days, I will do a write up. But any tips greatly apreciated. There is little info about the rears, but they look straight forward enough.

RAVE gives a good account of how to do it.

Here is my howto on the rear end (there are others on here) http://www.fullfatrr.com/forum/viewtopic.p...066a64f102

The trickier bits are deflating the bag and keeping it "rolled up" .
