A system engineered for specific vehicle models offers adjustable ride height and enhanced handling through the use of compressed air. This aftermarket modification replaces or supplements the factory suspension components, allowing users to customize the vehicle’s stance and optimize performance characteristics based on driving conditions. It typically comprises air springs, an air compressor, a control system, and associated hardware for installation on the specified automobile.
The installation of such a system provides several advantages, including the ability to lower the vehicle for aesthetic purposes or improved aerodynamics, and to raise it for clearing obstacles or navigating uneven terrain. Furthermore, the adjustable nature of the suspension can contribute to a more comfortable ride and enhanced cornering capabilities. Historically, these systems have evolved from basic load-leveling devices to sophisticated, electronically controlled setups.
