Description and Purpose

The Meritor® Air Cushion Suspension Spring Assembly is a critical component designed to provide superior ride comfort and stability for heavy-duty trucks. This rolling lobe air spring helps absorb road shocks and vibrations, reducing stress on the vehicle’s suspension system. Compatible with multiple truck brands, it ensures optimal suspension performance for various applications.

Why Replacement is Important

Over time, air suspension springs can wear out due to continuous compression cycles, road debris, and environmental exposure. A dameged or leaking air spring can lead to an unbalanced ride, increased strain on suspension components, and reduced load-bearing efficiency. Replacing a worn-out air suspension spring ensures consistent ride height, improves load distribution, and prevents premature wear on other suspension parts.

Impact on Vehicle Performance

This high-quality air spring enhances overal vehicle stability, providing a smoother and more controlled ride. With a compressed height of 7.54 inches, a bellows number of 9 10-18.5, and a durable plastic bottom plate, it is built for long-lasting performance. Featuring two top plate studs and one bottom plate stud for secure mounting, this suspension spring improves shock absorption, reduces maintenance costs, and extends the lifespan of the suspension system.
