Missed that question earlier, sorry. Unfortunately I don’t know if it’s available independently from the rear shock assembly. On mine, the canister just below that was damaged, so I had to replace the whole strut. It came with that black connector and wire harness, and it didn’t appear to have...

If you have an iPhone and take “Live” photos, they often don’t play nice. For existing photos you can tap the live icon in the upper left corner and select live off, then they may work.

I did 120. The operating pressure would be during media blasting. Max pressure I think would be the rating for the seal on the top of the chamber. 5 psi margin is good enough for government work.

Truthfully I don’t know if you could get away with bleeding just one side. What I do know is they share a common reservoir and pump, and the fluid is hygroscopic. I wouldn’t want to use any of what’s there if you have a severed line. Also, if the system ingested air (because it’s always cycling)...

Well, I bought my replacement damper directly from my local rivian service center. It came with a new solenoid and wire harness going up to the knuckle. Two or three connectors all came together in one place, if I recall correctly. I didn’t try to repair the unit.

So I made my own like in his video using a Harbor Freight media blasting chamber, an A/C vacuum pump + chamber (as a fluid separator), some 1/4" semi-rigid nylon line, and some misc fittings etc. It certainly doesn't have to be that expensive... probably $600 all told? And I can do it again...

I finished my repairs over this summer and have had my T back on the road since. I got away with replacing just the jounce lines and the rear damper on only the drivers side. It’s a Tenneco/Mclaren system, and it’s actually pretty simple to do if you’re a methodical person. I would highly...

This is actually damage from the vehicle being moved by forklift. I don’t anticipate such extreme damage happening from normal use or even moderate off roading. Obviously the LCAs need repair, but it got me thinking about how vulnerable these hoses are normally. The forks on a forklift are of...

Has anyone else experienced damage to the rear hydraulic suspension hoses? They’re very vulnerable being on the front of the rear suspension assembly. I understand most won’t end up in a situation where they’re at risk, but even on the highway an errant object could be kicked up by the front...

Local to what part of MA? I’m in Cambridge, if you still have them for sale I’m interested.
