Discovery 3 Suspension Compressor Replacment

Hi all.

So I replaced my compressor earlier with a like for like Hitachi model.

Every thing went smooth until I realised the little clip that the bolt screws into was rusted and snapped. No where to get one same day and I really didn’t feel like waiting so I found another way that worked well.

I drilled through to the other side of the metal (drilled in easy no issues and only took a minute or so) and used a 100mm m8 nut and bolt to secure it in.

Worked really well and I doubt unless someone with more knowledge can say that it won’t cause a safety issue drinking a small hole in.

Here are the photos I took. If there are no safety issue and you haven’t got the clip on hand then this will work really well and is very secure.

Thanks.

Hey.

So sorry for the multiple photos. I haven’t posted for ages and I didn’t realise so many would be uploaded.

Hope this helps even though the photos are not in order.
