VW Caddy

Fiat Ducato, Citroen and Peugeot

Full Caddy Range

AirRide has every Caddy covered. Regardless of if you have a Type 14, a Type 9k or a Type 2k every VW Caddy from 1980 to current can be fitted with air suspension front and rear.

We have our own range of 6 link rear conversions which are heavy duty, allow these vehicles to run very very low and provide better ride and handling than the original suspension - the best of every world. You really can have your cake and eat it. Kits are available in various specs with front suspension, and with numerous managements.

Mk1 VW CADDY

Also known in some markets as the VW Rabbit Pickup this classic vehicle is well suited to AirRide. Air Suspension brings this vehicle into the modern era improving handling, and ride as well as allowing the suspension on the rear to drop until the tyres are hard locked into the bodywork. At the touch of a button it will raise with any legal load and spare capacity.

9K CADDY

The 9K made from 1995 to 2004  was sold in some markets as the Volkswagen Polo Caddy and the SEAT Inca. 6 link rear with conventional strut front means this vehicle can accomodate any load, improves handling and ride quality and you can go as low as you want whenever you want.

2K CADDY

The 2K Caddy made from 2003 to current also has a 6 link rear suspension kit aligned to conventional front struts.

Aluminium Tanks

Aluminium tanks offer two main advantages over steel ones: Firstly, they do not rust in the same way or as severely, and secondly, they are lighter (and they look better!)

AirRide has used aluminium tanks for over ten years, from a time when the costs were prohibitive. As aluminium tanks have become more common place, costs have come down, and although they remain slightly more expensive than steel, they should still be the first choice for most.

Trailer Suspension

Trailers towed behind cars, vans and pick-ups are ideal candidates for air suspension for all the same reasons air is used on vans and pick-ups. Air bag-equipped trailers handle better, ride better and are easier to load and hitch. They are also mercifully quieter to tow.

The range of trailer products is universal, so don't expect a direct, bolt-on fit.

Universal Struts

For vehicles without a bolt-on kit, the alternative is usually a universal strut. These are struts without fittings which can easily be welded in place. This is ideal for highly-customised vehicles which will truly sit on the floor and for classic cars where kits are not available in the same range.

Leading Technology

Boss bags lead the way in bag-sealing technology, using forged rings.

Inflated via Schrader valves (tyre valves) and nothing extra required to get kit working.

 


 NEW 6 BAR KIT

We have a new 6 bar kit with adjustable rose joint suspension. As is always the rose joints have a harsher nature than poly bushes in the standard kit but for high performance vehicles offer more accurate and more consistent location, which is why they are used in motorsport.

Kit prices for rear end only from £1375. Superb quality, reversible and bolt on. Add £100 for uprated shorter dampers.
