Arnott C-2664 - Spring Conversion Kit Experiences

[GarageGuy]

I have recently taken possession of my 2nd 2004 3.0d e53, the car has only run 134,000 Kilometers (84'000 Miles) and is in almost new condition. The option list has everything I wanted except one option: S0221 2-axle self-levelling suspension (SLS).

Although the SLS-system has worked perfectly up to now, I assume from the countless posts on this topic here on this board that it will only be a matter of time before it will cause problems. I want my car to be reliable!

While searching for a conversion kit I came across the Arnott C-2664 Spring Conversion kit.

I did although not find answers to the following questions:

What is the vehicle height after fitting this kit?
I do NOT want my car lowered because really like the "Offroad look" of the e53.
(I have lifted the normal ride height with INPA for now to achieve that with the SLS).

And how soft/hard will the suspension be after fitting this kit?
Does it correspond to the sports suspension (S0226) or is it designed to be more comfortable?

Experience values are highly appreciated!
