Technical Which air suspension

[Olympus]

I have been reviewing the rear axle air suspension kits available for my 244 motorhome.
I would appreciate feed back from you guys who have systems fitted or had retrofitted the various system .....Not OE systems


Drawbacks
Ease of fitting
How much does it raise the rear end
Costs (companies who sell them)
Roll characteristics




Many thanks

Hi Olympus, I recently fitted Dunlop Airsprings to my 2004 Ducato X244. very esay to fit , just remove one wheel at a time, remove existing spring U Bolts. remove bump stop then install the rubber air spring spring in its place. Took about 2 -3 hours. When done, connect up the tubing and gauge, pump up to approx. 20 - 30 psi which raises the the back by about 2 - 3 inches depending on pressure. Also makes the ride much better. I am in New Zealand but purchased the kit from Marcle Leisure in Much Marcle while in the UK on holiday and cost about 400 pounds. Well worth the effort. Good luck
