This is the kit we installed last year and it's great but it costs about
$85.00 at any performance shop or direct from them.  This one on E-Bay is
more money because it includes the optional  (plug in to your cigarette
lighter) compressor and tubing that runs to the back of the van so that you
can adjust it from the driver's seat.  We found this not to be necessary
because you probably will only fill it once in a while and it can be done
with a bicycle pump or at your local gas station or maybe you already own
one of those little compressors.
One thing I would advice is to install it with TWO fill valves, one for each
side so that you can give the left side the extra it needs on a camper - if
you have a camper - otherwise with only one valve you will get equal lift on
both sides.  It's very easy to install the thing no matter which way you do
it and what a difference it makes in handling when the van is loaded!

Good luck,
