kelderman and camper

[Freddbull]

Just a thought. I was wondering if the Kelderman airbags would raise the truck enough with a 3500# camper on it, that if I dropped the hydraulic legs of the camper and then aired down the air bags would I be able to drive out from under the camper without having to play with those dam pump jacks. Oh ya! I should also disconnect the turnbuckles and elec'l connections I don't load and unload the camper a whole lot because it is a pain in the ass me no questions, but if this were an option I might be able to justify the expense to Mrs. Mgmt.

The full air-ride four-link setup that eliminates the stock springs with the dump valve would work for that I think. Semi truck air ride suspension can do this. Drops several inches. Don't see why it wouldn't work for what you want to do.



The other setup they have may do it, not sure though.



I do something similar (using the hydraulic cylinder and jack) when unhooking the batwing mower.

The Kelderman rear shackle air bags will let your rear bumper drop about 3". At the front of the bed, you might get an inch.



That would make for a very careful exercise. However, if you opted for the front air bags (extra $850), you could drop the nose of the truck about 4 to 5 inches. That just might do the trick.

I have a 5" lift system but you'll get tyhe idea from these pictures. First one is all the way up, second all the way down. Travel will be about the same with any of the four link systems because they all use the same bags.
