Hi, I know it eats into the payload but as anyone had levellers fitted to their van?

If so, what type and how much?

Thanks

Not your desired answer Sapper, but.......

In the non XL Warwick, and I'm fairly sure yours too, the rear end is naturally higher than the front, in my experience this is largely unaffected by the air suspension pressure.

So the simple solution is to park nose in to a sloping pitch and it'll level itself, in several years of this we only used the levelling ramps once or twice, this guy doesn't seem to understand this!!!

I am near obsessed by both weight and simplicity, the XL is already heavier than the non XL Warwick so any add-ons reduce payload. Simplicity speaks for itself!!

Interestingly, the current truck, the Exec you see in the avatar also is tail high so same procedure works as well, no re- training required!!

I've got the self-levelling HPC Hydraulics equipment fitted on my van.

I don't think I could ever live without it now think_smiley_46

Thanks for the info Roger, how long have you had yours and any idea what the cost was?

Much appreciated

It was one of the first things I had fitted to the van, so it's been in very regular use since March 2018.

Three and a bit years later and I use it everywhere, even if we're just out for a day trip and stop in a lay-by for a cuppa or something, one button, 90 seconds, dead level. The van doesn't rock in the wind or when getting in and out the side door. Cupboard doors and fridge doors stay where you left them. Great for servicing and tyre changes too, just press a button and you can have all four wheels off the floor if needed.

Anyway, I'm sure I don't need to sell it to you smile!

Cost wise, I'm not exactly sure to the penny but it was ballpark £5k all in.

Thanks for that mate, I know how good they are because I had the EP system fitted to my last van and like you say after you've had one you'd be lost without it.

I know I'd be looking at, at least 6k to have that system fitted again so thought I would look at some others.
