Sean, how much stroke did you feel was required on the actuators? I looked on your site for a page that described your system buy couldn't find one - if you have done a description I'd appreciate the link!
Out of curiosity, do you put leveling valves on each wheel, or go with the one valve per axle? If you go with one per wheel, it would seem to me to get a bit complicated when returning the bus to traveling configuration unless you had some sort of sophisticated control system.
I put one actuator on each existing factory ride height valve. That's a three-point system (four-point systems can induce chassis twist that will break things; don't ask how I know), one on each side in the front, and a single valve in the rear on my Neoplan (MCI and Prevost are the other way around).-Seanhttp://OurOdyssey.BlogSpot.com

BK: Cheaper than a transmission? Aren't these buses inexpensive to operate?Jim
...Been this way for years has never broke yet. I can pick up one wheel to change a tire. But when it is level I can't see where a 3 point system is any better. Looks like you have a better chance of twisting the bus with it. And with the four jacks down it is steady as can be...
