Set out for work and parked at the shop for a paper when a massive bang and gush of air from the front near side. Suspension error  turned round drove home with no suspension. Jacked it up took the front wheel off inner wheel arch out. Found my FBH exhaust had split on the concertina and hot exhaust gas was pointing onto the air line for the suspension so it burst Fitted a 6mm joint wrapped the FBH exhaust in repair tape put back together and test all good now  . The joys of a D3.

I had exactly this. The exhaust for the fbh was about 20 quid and I fixed the pipe with a joint bought from landrover usually sold as a join for an older range rover air suspension. I think that joint was about £1.50.
I'm sure you could get that joint elsewhere bit they had it and it was a quick and easy fix in the end. The joint never gave a day trouble either. !
 Upgrades so far - , rear ladder from prospeed , front and rear light guards G4 style roof rack and 4 lightforce spots on the rack! Xenon lights
