Default Unknown Air Suspension

I caught the end of Truck U on Speed today and they put some kind of air suspension on a F350, but I’m not sure what kind it was. It appeared to mount in place of the rear spring hanger. It seems to be a pretty neat setup and I would like to look into it but Google has failed me. Has anyone heard of this suspension or did anyone see it on TV?

If it is the one I'm tihinking of, I saw it a while back- before I had my truck. Is it the one where the truck rode so rough without a load the guy wanted it smoother so they did the airbags? And with a load the springs took over?

If so, I've been looking for the setup too. If I find it, I'll post up.

edit: Here is something I found.. http://www.keldermanairride.com/medi...-4500/5500REAR

Wonder if you could get it setup like the Kenworth Suspension. set in front of and behind you springs. For all those who haul all the time, wonder if it would work and ride better.

the setup that they did looked a lot like the kelderman...from what i saw...The linkage would not be hard to make at all....might be a fun winter project[sm=confused06.gif]
