How "you simply can't beat that air ride feeling!" I'm sure you've heard this before, right?
By: airsuspension And sure, this all sounds great in theory but if you're at the stage of still considering the possibility of air lift suspension, either purchasing a new car that already has air suspension or perhaps even converting your traditional steel spring system, you're probably after a little more information than this. Now you're probably wondering if aside from the legendary "air ride feeling" is there any real performance difference between an air ride and your transitional suspension system? The truth is there are several benefits of an air lift suspension system over the steel spring suspension system. First up, air lift suspension gives you a wider turning range and you don't need the adjustments your traditional steel spring system would need to get to the same level of turning capability. Not only that, air suspension also gives you better handling ability of your vehicle on the road. This is because most air systems will adjust to different compression levels and your air system can adjust for different road conditions. http://www.youtube.com/ It doesn't matter whether you're driving around town in the city, on the highway or on particularly rough road conditions your air suspension system will adjust and give you better handling than a traditional spring system. So not only do you get a better ride and handling - when it comes down to it, this means you and your family will be safer on the road as well. If you're someone who carries heavy loads, then you'll for sure get a far safer and more comfortable ride with air lift suspension. This is because the level of suspension will be automatically matched to the weight of the load you're carrying. With your traditional suspension systems you needed to have a lot of work done or have a high degree of mechanical know how yourself to switch out the parts before hauling heavy loads. As a bonus, now with the ability to easily adjust your air suspension, it also controls the pitch of the trailer. Another reason many people will choose air lift suspension is the ability it gives you to give your vehicle a customized look or 'stance'. Using air suspension you can change the way it sits, either tilting it backwards or forwards. This is especially favored people in the hot rod community - but also increasingly by your average car enthusiast! If radical custom suspension and even hopping capabilities is what you're after, the only way to get this while still having a pretty normal ride on a daily basis, is using air lift suspension. More and more car owners want to get that ultimate slammed look when the vehicle is parked up but then still need to be able to drive it comfortably on the road. So air lift suspension gives you a great and varied number of advantages over your traditional suspension system. On one side you have the handling and safety features, and on the other there is the ability to get your vehicle 'up in the air' or 'as low as you can go'. You can 'pancake' your ride on shut off or just bounce to impress the kids! And why not? It's your ride after all, have fun with your air ride suspension! # # # http://www.airsuspension.com/ End
