Speed to set Air Suspension to "Low"

[lolachampcar]

The folks from OpenEVSE did the links.... That was a while back and I do not think they did a second run due to lack of interest. I believe there are other options but I do not know anything about them.

Looks like BBC Speed & Machine does them for around $1200 with an exchange. I'm going to see if my local shop has any other options.

I was under the impression that the hitch had a tongue weight rating of about 200lbs, I'd be a little nervous with an electric golf cart plus platform on that.

I am/was also concerned about the tongue weight rating. I am just under that load at 180lbs. The golf cart is an electric single-rider trike type.

does 180 include the basket? And are you concerned that a basket has a very different torque profile on the hitch than a trailer?

Yes - basket/hitch platform is 40, cart is 140. I can also load TWO carts on the same basket but I use a Cayenne that has a 600 lb tongue weight for that!

With the Smart Air Suspension, at what speed do you set it to transition from "Standard" to "Low" height? 55, 60, 65, or higher MPH?

I have mine set on "Always" for purely aesthetic reasons.

Likewise, I have the same hitch receiver with the 1 1/4" receiver. It's rated at 200lb tongue weight. I use it for a bike rack or snowboard rack most of the time, but also intended it to tow a pair of 800lb/ea 3 person Sea Doo GTX's on a 17ft, 2 axle trailer. It's pushing the manufacturer weight /tongue limits right up to what they say it can do, and it performs great! At least on my test where I pulled them around town and a short sprint on the freeway to get a feel of how the car feels with them loaded.

I've got the spring suspension, and it holds the trailer just fine.

I always have my Air Suspension set to Standard. But on highways its set to 70 MPH and as far as damage from potholes ive bent a wheel from that! IN NEW YORK so my car will never be going back!

hehe. Welcome to New York. Major reason I would never go with performance tires. Been there. Done that.
