AL-KO Front Suspension Upgrade

Modified on Wed, 14 Feb at 9:27 AM

The Al-KO retrofit kit is expertly designed for the Fiat Ducato chassis. It is a great option for those looking for premium ride comfort and performance in their INTERSTATE motorhome.


How does the AL-KO suspension system enhance my motorhome?


When you opt for the AL-KO suspension system, you're replacing the factory-installed suspension struts on the front axle of your motorhome. This upgrade is about more than just a smoother ride; it's about protection and performance. The system is engineered to safeguard both the vehicle and the driver by providing a more stable and secure driving experience. It significantly reduces interior noise, making your journeys quieter and more enjoyable.


What are the specifications?


The suspension system supports a permissible front axle load of up to 2100 kg. It accommodates a total vehicle weight ranging from 4000 to 5000 kg, ensuring your motorhome can handle the essentials for your travels.


Understanding Axle Loads:


When discussing axle loads, it's important to note that these figures serve as critical indicators for preventing overload. If the load on either the rear or front axle surpasses the permissible limit, the concern isn't the overall weight but rather the excess on the specific axle. Similarly, exceeding the total weight limit implies that the vehicle is overloaded, which could impact performance and safety.


What's included in the kit?


Each AL-KO retrofit kit comes complete with everything required for installation, including left and right shock struts and a comprehensive screw set. This ensures you have all the necessary components for a seamless upgrade to your motorhome's suspension system.


Maintenance:


Like all mechanical components, suspension should be checked whenever you get your vehicle serviced by a licenced mechanic.
