Air suspension on Ford Transit improves performance characteristics car, allows you to reduce the cost of repairs and maintenance, and, consequently, increase the profitability of cargo transportation.

The air suspension on the Ford Transit eliminates sagging and swinging of the body when loaded, increases the life of the springs and their attachment points, increases comfort and improves handling when driving with a load. After installing the pneumatic elements (pillows), the weight of the car is redistributed, which leads to the unloading of the springs and their fastening elements. Adjusting the air pressure in the pneumatic elements (pillows) allows you to select the optimal mode of operation of the air suspension, depending on the vehicle load.

How air suspension is installed on a Ford Transit

The air suspension on the Ford Transit is additional equipment, its installation does not require changes in the design of the car. Pneumatic elements (pillows) are fixed between the frame and the bridge using special brackets. The air suspension control system is usually located in the passenger compartment.

For installation, it is not necessary to completely redo the chassis. The most popular option is to install a single-circuit air suspension on a Ford Transit on the rear axle. First, the brackets for the pillows are installed. The upper one is attached to the frame, the lower one is attached to the leaf spring. In the course of work, it is necessary to make holes for the bolted connections of the brackets. Next, pneumatic cylinders are installed here. They are connected to hoses. It is better to install a compressor with a receiver in the cabin. V engine compartment space is limited, and in the back (if it is a booth) it can be damaged. We connect to the unit solenoid valves and display the control panel on the front panel.

This completes the installation of the air suspension in the Ford Transit. Pipes should be laid in inside frames, attaching them to the clamps. We extend the resource In order for the cylinders to serve for a long time (and this is half the cost of the entire system kit), you need to know some rules for caring for them. The rubber coating of the pillows is very afraid of road reagents and dirt. Even small particles can act as an abrasive at the joints of air springs. In order for the pillows to serve for a long time and not to be lowered, they should be periodically cleaned of dirt. And in winter - treat with silicone.

The air suspension on the Ford Transit is easy and quick to install. For installation, you will need a standard set of tools and basic car repair skills. If it is not possible to install the kit yourself, we recommend using the services of a professional car service.

There are two ways to control the air suspension: comfortable and economical.

At comfortable option the air suspension on the Ford Transit is installed in conjunction with the air suspension control system (quite simple). In this case, the air pressure in the pneumatic elements (pillows) is controlled by a key from the passenger compartment, and the pressure in the pneumatic elements (pillows) is controlled by a pressure gauge.

In the economical version, the air suspension on the Ford Transit is installed without a control system. Then the adjustment and control of pressure in the pneumatic elements (pillows) is carried out through the nipple of the pneumatic system in the same way as the adjustment and control of pressure in a car tire.

Light-duty Ford Transit cars are quite in demand in our country. Often the choice is based on the more affordable cost of this model, in comparison with the Sprinter. At the same time, the load capacity and comfort of the presented model is in no way inferior to the last representative. Ford Transit is presented in different variations. In most cases, the manufacturer provides for the installation of springs or springs on the rear axle of such vehicles. However, given the increased demand for trucking services, it is understandable that owners are trying to operate light vehicles in accordance with their maximum capabilities. vehicle, and sometimes significantly exceed them, which affects the rapid wear of the suspension and the deterioration of its qualities.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Question: Does your air suspension kit include a compressor (control system)?

Answer: No, not included. But we offer to purchase it separately, with a choice of components specifically for your needs. Firstly, this reduces the cost of the kit, because many do not need a control system, and secondly, you get a product that meets your needs, and not some kind of universal, average set.

Question: How much cargo can I carry after installing the air suspension?

Answer: Now it's up to you, our air bags have huge margin of safety. But we kindly ask you to think about other elements of the car that you did not strengthen, now they are at risk. Use your vehicle wisely.

Question: What is the lifespan of your air suspension?

Answer: At correct installation and use in accordance with our recommendations air suspension service life practically unlimited. Of course, we do not take into account external damage to the pneumatic element.

Question: The springs need to be replaced, do they need to be changed to install the air suspension?

Answer: Our air suspension kit can be installed and on "tired" springs they do not need to be replaced. If the springs are broken, then they, nevertheless, will have to be changed.

Question: Why so expensive?

Answer: Expensive only at first glance. The kits are created using a large number of imported components, which affects the price. But the price of the kit is comparable to the price of replacing the springs with new ones, and the pillows will last much longer. If you consider the savings on replacing springs, as well as the additional profit from increasing the carrying capacity of your vehicle, you will realize that this is not at all expensive and will pay off very fast.

Question: Single-circuit or double-circuit system should I choose?

Answer: If you use the basic kit without a control system, if you do not overload the car on one side, then you will be enough one circuit(pillows are connected in one highway). For greater stability of the car (for example, with a high height of the body / booth), we recommend installing dual control system.

What do the air bags installed in springs for Ford give?

Suspension breakdown, car roll are excluded, comfort and energy intensity increase, the suspension becomes collected, quiet. With air springs in the springs, you can adjust the clearance and suspension stiffness, the car will not sag when fully loaded. The effect is especially noticeable if you use them on a bad road (gravel road, pits, bumps, potholes, primer, asphalt waves, railway crossings, etc.). Also, if the wheel rubs against the arches, then you can get rid of this with the help of air bags in the springs.

Pneumocylinders black stone suitable for vehicles where the shock absorber is located separately from the spring. The ✔ sign means that the shock absorber is installed separately from the spring and installation is possible, the ✘ sign means cars with a MacPherson strut, or where it is structurally impossible to install air bags. Sign ✐ - there is an instruction / photo of the installation. To go to the instructions, you must click on the icon itself. The catalog does not give a 100% guarantee that the pneumatic element will fit your car, as there are design differences in the model configurations or their modifications.

How to determine if an air spring is suitable black stone if there is no information in the catalog?

It is necessary to measure the inner diameter and height of the spring in the normal state without a jack and without a load (it is easier to measure in a pit):

1. Make sure the vehicle is on level ground with the springs under the weight of the body.
2. Measure the INSIDE diameter of the spring. If the spring is conical or barrel-shaped, measurements must be taken at the points of maximum and minimum diameter.
3. Measure the height of the INTERNAL space of the spring vertically, excluding standard buffers (impactors) of the compression stroke - they must be dismantled.
4. Check the interior for bolts, sharp objects and bulges. If there are any, they must either be eliminated or covered with fenders.
5. If there are holes in the lower arm and/or support on the body side with a diameter of more than 20 mm, they must also be closed with fenders "W" and/or "F".
6. Select the most suitable pneumatic element according to the plate below. The free height space can always be filled using the "W" and/or "F" fenders. The excess space in the diameter of the pneumatic element will fill when pressure is applied.
