William,

Glad you found the same results as I did.

Super easy to install, and gives the Vanagon quick roadholding manner's,
especially in corner's.

I would back down on the air pressure to the factory reccomended 25 psi,
just for longevity sake--I know, I know, I'm running 30--but I'm nuts,
you aren't--are you? :>)

Have a Cool Yule,

Later,

Terry

Thank you Terry Kay for recommending the air lift suspension system to
me and helping me with installation tips. You were right about how easy
it was to install. Road handling is much improved especially around
corners. I have only 30 psi in the air balloons now and will test them
with a load on our next camping trip.
You were right about installation. The balloons went inside the springs
very easily, and the whole installation took less than one hour. I'm
sure someone who is handy and did not make a few mistakes like I did
could do it in 1/2 hour. I did not attach the clamps and air lines to
the balloon stems before lowering the van, so I had to raise the van up
again to make this easier on the left side. I also took photos of my
installation process which took some time.
If anyone is interested in the photos I took to demonstrate installation
I have set up a web page for you to view at:

I installed mine with a Tee on the air lines. If installed with two
separate fill valves (provided in the kit) you might be able to
compensate for any sag due to the extra weight of camper equipment on
the left side.
If anyone is interested in installing them on your vanagon I have set up
an account with Air Lift and will provide them to anyone for a
discounted price (just 15% above cost--about $80, plus shipping.) Check
your local suppliers first to see if you can find a good price to avoid
shipping costs. Let me know what you can get them for and I will see
what I can do. I got delivery in three days from the Air Lift company.
