Is California Killing Clean Diesel Performance?

Is California Killing Clean Diesel Performance?

March 22, 2010

Dear Members of the Media and Fellow Gearheads,

Functioning as a cutting edge automotive engineering company, in the state of California, since 1958, we at Banks have long understood our obligation to design and sell emissions-legal products.  Much like prey accepting the reality of the predator, we realize that there’s much to be said for the old adage, “if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em.”  Let’s face it… emissions standards won’t ever go away.  They’ll simply evolve.

Firestone R4Tech™ Suspension for Your Pickup Truck

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

The foundation R4Tech suspension is designed and manufactured by SANLUIS Rassini, the preeminent supplier of leaf springs to the North American light truck industry. When combined with Firestone Airide™ air springs and RideRite™ air accessories, the result is R4Tech, a suspension kit that is unmatched in terms of durability, reliability, and ride quality.

Each application is professionally designed and tuned to improve the ride quality and handling performance of the factory vehicle.

IMPROVE THE RIDE: Rides like air suspension, installs like leaf suspension + Ride Rite. Air springs and softer rated leaf springs mean improved ride across all conditions, especially unloaded. The shocks included in the kit automatically adjust to load to optimize ride quality and handling stability.

KNEEL AND LEVEL: Allows for easier loading and trailer attachment with the kneel feature. The air springs automatically adjust for any load, keeping your vehicle level.

REDUCE DRIVER FATIGUE: Air spring suspension reduces cab noise and road vibrations. The harsh and choppy ride of the factory leaf suspension, especially unloaded, is largely eliminated. This helps reduce driver fatigue.

CONTROL AXLE HOP AND WINDUP: R4Tech utilizes the patented lower link and “J-spring”. These components stop axle windup, reducing brake hop and axle shudder under heavily loaded acceleration.

IMPROVE HANDLING WITH LOAD-ADAPTIVE SHOCKS: The shocks included in the kit vary their stiffness based on the air spring pressure. More load equates to more pressure in the air springs, and more control from the shocks. Non-adjustable factory shocks are a compromise between load conditions. The Firestone dampers for R4Tech adjust to the load, optimizing the ride in all conditions. Combined with a constant ride height, this greatly improves the handling and ride.

INSTALL EASILY: Installs in the same space, using the same holes as the OEM leaf suspension
Big rig trucks use air suspension for a reason:

* Airide™ suspensions ride better than steel spring suspensions
* Reduce the wear and tear on your equipment
* Protect both the driver and cargo, regardless of the load.

R4Tech is a patented, hybrid air-over-leaf suspension that:

* Provides the ride quality of a full-air suspension
* Has the axle control of a leaf spring and the ease of installation of a standard leaf spring and Ride-Rite kit.
