Hi. My brother has it fitted to a 24ft Boroma Van. Has covered over 30000 Klm so far without any problems. It is adjustable for height so if you have a side slope you can let the high side down. It can be set low when long term camping. It takes a bit of battery power to run the compressor to lift it back up again but his van has two 120 Amp/hour batteries. If you are getting an annex made you need to have the van at your normal stationary height so that the height of the annex walls fit correctly. The internal ride for the van contents is superior as well. Regards,Bob

Hi Duane
We have this suspension on our van and love it.
it gives everything in the van a soft ride and having 2 trailing arms has no jarring transmitted to the van or tug when hitting potholes or bumps.
Is great for setting up on sloping sites, drop one side and raise the other.
If on flat sites you can drop it onto the bump stops for stability.
We travel as much on dirt roads as we can and have not had any problems with it

Hullo Duane

We have the fully automatic Cruisemaster Air Suspension fitted to our van which we took delivery of in July, 2008. We have now travelled about 20,000km.

Prior to this van we had a Golf with fully automatic air suspension for nine years. Personally I would not have anything else!! If you can afford it go for the fully automatic system. It is at the top of my list of "must haves" in a van. Second would probably be disc brakes, which are fitted to our current van.

Good luck with your deliberations.

Regards, JAX
