A step-by-step guide to DIY air suspension for your road car.
Manufacturers like Mercedes, Tesla, Audi and Cadillac choose air
suspension because they can achieve the highest quality in ride and
handling, but until now, there hasn't been a book that shows you
how to get the best from aftermarket air suspension for your road
car. This book covers both theory and practice - from the technical
advantages of air suspension through to detailed coverage of the
development, installation and tuning of a custom air suspension
system. It looks at wiring and plumbing, covers a brilliant new low
cost electronic air suspension controller, and even shows how to
source low-cost components from cars originally sold with air
suspension. Want to buy an air suspension kit off the shelf? That's
covered as well, with the six key questions to ask before buying.
Whether you're after the best ride and handling, or simply like
being able to raise or lower your car at the turn of a knob, this
book will show you how to do it.

provides practical advice on choosing, running and even modifying
one of these exceptional cars, including full technical
specifications of each model since 1997. Topics covered in the book
include: buying your first Morgan, and the variations available;
making the best of the cockpit area and optimizing comfort; staying
dry in the rain and protecting the bodywork from wear and tear;
Morgan suspension, the practicalities and the modifications
available; service and maintenance for the home mechanic and,
