Most of the cars in Osaka Auto Messe 2011 that we went last February have been equipped with the air suspension and also hydraulic suspension system.Here we have a video of a car equipped with an air suspension system and some pictures of that car.The installation of air suspension technology is now the most common method of suspension modification due to its price and simplicity. An air suspension system is a simple system that features an air-bags, air compressor, a reservoir and control unit.The compressor pressurizes the air and the compressed air is used as a spring.
To create an adjustable ride the coil springs are replaced with a rubber bag that is filled with air from a central reservoir which is filled using an air compressor. To raise the car the bags are inflated with air and to lower the car the bags are deflated.
