Self Leveling Pneumatic Valve Kit

An air management system typically includes a compressor, air tank, valves or a valve block, pressure sensors or switches, airlines, a control unit or switches, and in full air setups, height sensors. Together they control how air is delivered to the airbags or struts and how the system maintains or adjusts ride height.

Yes. Any automatic ride-levelling or preset height system requires an air tank so there is enough stored air to raise the vehicle quickly without overworking the compressor. The tank buffers demand and allows smoother, more reliable height changes.

Manual systems use simple paddle valves or switches to control air pressure by feel, and are typically used for Load Assist or basic custom setups. Electronic systems use solenoid valves, height sensors and an ECU to manage presets and maintain ride height automatically. Legal full-air conversions generally require some form of automatic height control.

Regulations typically require that major ride-height changes do not occur while the vehicle is in motion. Electronic air management systems usually monitor handbrake or vehicle speed and only allow height changes when stationary or below a defined speed, to maintain safety and stability.

The Self Leveling Pneumatic Valve Kit is designed to work with various airbag systems, typically supporting lift ranges of up to 2 inches when paired with standard double-bellow airbags. For lifts exceeding 2 inches, it is recommended to use triple-bellow airbags in conjunction with this valve kit for optimal performance.

This kit features automatic ride-height control, which continuously adjusts the airbag pressure to maintain an even load distribution across the vehicle. This ensures that the vehicle remains level, improving handling and stability, especially when towing or carrying heavy loads.

This kit is ideal for users who frequently tow trailers, caravans, or carry heavy loads. It is particularly beneficial for off-road enthusiasts who require consistent vehicle height and stability over uneven terrain, as well as for those who want to enhance the comfort of their daily driving experience.

The key difference lies in its automatic ride-height control feature, which continuously monitors and adjusts the airbag pressure based on load conditions. Unlike manual systems, this ensures that the vehicle maintains a consistent height and balance without the need for constant adjustments by the driver.

While the kit can be installed by a competent DIY enthusiast, professional installation is recommended to ensure proper integration with your vehicle's airbag system. This helps avoid potential issues and ensures optimal performance of the self-leveling functionality.
