2 Introduction
THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING AN AUXILIARY AIR SUSPENSION KIT FROM THE RANGE
OFFERED BY DSC NEDERLAND. AUXILIARY AIR SUSPENSION IS FITTED IN TANDEM WITH
THE STANDARD STEEL SPRINGS OF THE VEHICLE SUSPENSION, AND PROVIDES
ENHANCEMENTS IN TERMS OF BOTH THE STABILITY OF THE VEHICLE AND THE
COMFORT OF THE PASSENGER.
VEHICLE LEVELLING
Simply by varying the air pressure in the springs, the vehicle can be
levelled both front-to-rear and side-to-side. Keeping the vehicle level
optimises stability, ensures correct headlamp beam distribution and
reduces tyre wear arising from uneven distribution of weight.
STRAIGHT LINE STABILITY
Straight line stability is greatly increased at higher speeds, and when
subjected to buffeting from cross-winds or large overtaking vehicles.
REDUCED BODY ROLL
Body roll when cornering or negotiating roundabouts is significantly
reduced.
FATIGUE REDUCTION AND WEAR COMPENSATION
Suspension fatigue is reduced, so helping to prevent leaf springs from
sagging under repeated or constant loading. Any sagging already
present can be compensated-for. This is a particular benefit for
motorhomes, which are always fully laden.
RIDE COMFORT
Air springs help to absorb shock loads from uneven road surfaces,
therefore general ride quality is much improved.
