A system designed to replace conventional suspension setups, this arrangement integrates four control arms to locate the axle and air springs to provide adjustable ride height and spring rate. Used extensively in both custom vehicle builds and performance applications, it offers a distinct advantage over traditional leaf spring or coil spring suspensions. The configuration allows for precise control over axle movement and enhances ride comfort through the variable pressure of the air springs.
The implementation of this technology provides significant improvements in vehicle handling, load-carrying capacity, and overall ride quality. Historically, such systems were primarily found in heavy-duty vehicles; however, advancements in manufacturing and control technology have made them increasingly accessible for a wider range of automobiles. The adaptability they offer to different driving conditions and load requirements makes them a desirable upgrade for enthusiasts and professionals alike. Furthermore, the ability to fine-tune ride height allows for improved aesthetics and enhanced aerodynamic performance.
