Airide manufacture pneumatic suspension kits for
Fiat, Peugeot, Citroen, Ford, Mercedes, and Renault based vehicles.
The Airide system is comprised of two air bags fitted
between the chassis and the axle. This will greatly improve the straight-line
stability in strong winds and also when overtaking/being overtaken by heavy
vehicles.
Airide helps to decrease motorhomes body roll when
entering roundabouts and cornering, as well as greatly improving the road
manners and manoeuvres overall. This in itself will reduce fuel consumption,
tyre wear, and brake wear as you won't have the need to slow down and
anticipate the road ahead. Your passengers will also feel the benefits
that Airide Air suspension gives you.
The Airide system can also prevent grounding out on
awkward driveways and steep slopes or even when embarking/disembarking on
ferries.
Whatever the situation, the pressure can be altered
to suit your own preference, need and driving style.
Airide Air Suspension allows you to enhance the
rear suspension of the vehicle by adjusting the air pressure. This reduces any
sagging and maintains a level ride height for the vehicle.

by using the finger tip control panel that is fitted inside the cab. Simply
press the button to inflate the air bags or toggle one of the paddles left or right to deflate the air bags if/when needed.
