Are class A diesel pushers the only ones with air ride/bags. Can you get air ride/bags for class a with gas engines factory installed,or do you have to go with the after market?

If they do offer class a gas with factory air ride which ones make it?

A lot of the gassers have air bags but they aren't the same as the DPs. The DPs have an actual air suspension. Many gassers have air bags inside the coil springs to provide a bit more lift but it's still essentially a coil / struts suspension with extra help from the airbags (e.g. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Air-Lift-81560-A........_Accessories&hash=item20c4849232&vxp=mtr).

There are a couple of posters on here who have added the Kelderman Air suspension to their Ford chassis. It seems like a well engineered system and they seem happy with their change. This is not the same as the previous poster said but, a real air suspension.

Workhorse offered full air suspension conversion for their W22. It was a 5K option. It was also sold as a aftermarket conversion as well. I'm not sure there was much interest.
