WHAT ARE THE PROS OF AIR SUSPENSION SYSTEMS?

There are many advantages to installing an air suspension system. This is why you see these kits being installed more and more often. Let’s take a look at some of the pros of air suspension systems.

Suspension Adjustability - The most obvious advantage of air suspension systems is the ability to quickly adjust the height of your vehicle at the press of a button. This is the main reason people add air suspension to their vehicles. This allows you to get the perfect look for your vehicle that can't be achieved with traditional suspension.

Ride Quality - Converting your shocks, struts, and coil springs to an air suspension setup allows for a better ride quality due to the design of the air shock. Air shocks make for a comfortable and softer ride quality that is leagues ahead of your factory suspension setup.

Less Wear & Tear On Other Components - Using air suspension for your truck or trailer can help save some wear and tear on other components. When a truck is loaded down from hauling or towing, there can be stress on the u-joints and driveshaft due to the pinion angle shifting. With air shocks, you can load up your shocks with air and bring your truck back into a level position.

Air springs have been used in heavy duty vehicle suspension systems for nearly a century, where they have been able to provide usefulness by taking advantage of the compressed air required for vehicle braking systems. Air springs have provided a two-fold advantage over mechanical leaf- or coil-springs. One advantage with air suspension is the extra comfort provided by being able to vary the air pressure inside the spring, which changes the spring rate, and therefore, ride quality. Additionally, because variable control over air pressure adjusts the deck or trailer height, aligning loading docks to the level of the deck is possible when dock plates are unavailable.
