Hi hi, you can definately purchase a height corrector seperately but perhaps not the lever mounting part on its own. If it's just the valve that's busted and the lever assy is fine It would be possible to take a new Height corrector (from any model, CX/BX/GSA) and swap it over on the mounting. The only thing I think might be different is the internal dashpot that seemed stiffer on the Xantia but can't confirm this. Also, a H corrector from previous models will have a ball joint lever whereas the Xantia has a fixed lever. Both unscrew with care and could be swapped.
Plieades claim to modify their correctors so that the damper doesn't clog up. Although the guy I spoke to on the phone couldn't tell me how they acheived this.

Sorry I'm not sure about the link/lever mount alone but there is a brand new in box H Corrector on ebay just now. It's a rear one. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... BS:GB:1123
