Our air suspension systems ensure a smooth and stable ride, adapting to varying loads. These systems provide superior comfort and handling, essential for recovery vehicles frequently carrying different weights. Air suspension solutions make loading and unloading stress-free, and our unique 4-bag air suspension system lowers the loading platform, reducing potential vehicle damage and improving driving stability.
Full-air suspension systems provide exceptional ride comfort and stability by automatically adjusting to different loads. These systems enhance vehicle handling, reduce body roll, and improve steering, making them ideal for recovery vehicles carrying heavy or unbalanced loads.
Semi-air suspension systems are cost-effective and enhance ride quality and vehicle handling. They provide additional support to the existing suspension, improving load distribution and comfort, which is crucial for recovery vehicles with varying load requirements.
MAD coil springs are an excellent choice for recovery vehicles that need enhanced stability and load-bearing capacity. These replacement front coil springs improve vehicle handling and support, ensuring a more controlled and reliable ride, especially under heavy loads.

Posted on Andrew PritchardTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A very happy customer having just had rear air assist fitted to our Le Voyageur motorhome, by the team at Glide Rite. From the initial contact with David, all through the booking process and then on the day of fitting this week, everything was professionally handled. Much appreciated was the ability to park outside overnight, complete with hook up, security lights and CCTV, and then the generous use of a courtesy car whilst my installation was done. A great job, and glad to have decided on the day to upgrade to the Air Master Controller, looks great in our Mercedes cab 😁Posted on bikerarthur27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The whole process of adding semi air suspension from start to finish was completely stress free; cannot recommend this company highly enough. Was able to stop overnight as had travelled along distance from the Midlands, 3 hours journey. Electric hook up available which was great as the temperature went down to freezing overnight.Posted on Peter CliffordTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had air suspension fitted to my Bailey Adamo and very impressed with the system. Extremely impressed by the level of service and support, communication and general ethos of the company. Highly recommended.Posted on Sally ChattingTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What can I say.... cannot fault the excellent product - semi air suspension and upgraded front springs on Rapido 8096DF....rides like a dream and levels her out a treat. More to the point, David and Carl are the business.... professional, helpful and friendly and couldn't do more. We stayed outside the night before, free electric hook up, free use of courtesy car and a lift to and from the ferry for our sightseeing in Liverpool whilst they completed the work. Top of our list for any future work. Give them a go, you will not regret it! Thanks team Glide Rite!Posted on jefferson lord (skycamuk)Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic company, they fitted rear air suspension to my adamo 75-4DL. No fuss no drama , great price and completed in the dayPosted on Abelard SnazzTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This company is one of the best I've ever had the pleasure of dealing with all the staff are courteous, knowledgeable and can't do enough to help you. I had the semi air suspension fitted and what a difference it made, it should be mandatory on any camper conversion. The van now handles like it should instead of trying to steer a brick. A big thank you to all the team at glide-rite. John.Posted on Tina MaloneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the first contact with Glide-Rite their professionalism was apparent. David and Carl were both extremely helpful and friendly, even giving us a lift to the train station. We had semi-air suspension fitted to our 2008 Hymer A class motor home and new front springs. The difference this made to the drive and stability of the vehicle was incredible. First class professional workmanship, so glad we had this job done many thanks to Dave and Carl at Glide-Rite. Excellent service, definitely recommend this company.Posted on Chris BruneyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Edit Nov 2025 I wanted to leave this follow-up review for Carl, David, Alan and the team at Glide-Rite. After having a levelling system fitted almost 18 months ago and then my semi-air suspension 6 months ago, we took our motorhome on an epic journey across Europe, fully laden with everything you need for a long trip (including a motorcycle). Both systems were transformational and gave us speed and comfort on almost every kind of terrain – incredible investments that massively enhanced our experience. While the initial installations were flawless, what truly amazed me was the after-sales service. I had an issue – most likely my mistake – and Carl had also promised a component upgrade last year. It would have been so easy to fob me off, but even after 18 months he treated me no differently to the first time we met: as a valued customer. I’m just staggered! Today they spent almost three hours completing the work and made me comfortable in their office while I waited. The work was completed to a very high standard, and they even replaced a component I had damaged – all free of charge. So when you’re shopping around for cheaper prices, please remember: there are still companies in the UK that remember what proper customer service looks like – Glide-Rite is at the top of the list! ///////////////////////////////////////////// Outstanding customer service end-to-end! From the very first enquiry of our HPC Self Levelling System, to the chauffeur collection at the train station after fitting, this team have been simply amazing. First class, secure facilities and top-notch workmanship where attention to detail is unrivalled. Really happy to recommend Carl, David, Alan and will definitely be back for the air suspension in the future!Posted on David WardTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can honestly say say that there aren’t many companies nowadays that offer the high level of customer service and satisfaction that Glide Rite do. We travelled from Yorkshire to have rear air suspension fitted and was really impressed with our experience! We were allowed to park up our motor home with free electric hook up and stay over night as our job was booked in for the next day. On top of this we were offered the use of a practically new courtesy car with a full tank of fuel to spend the day site seeing around Liverpool. Carl is the nicest and most professional man and he made us feel so valued. 💯% prefect thank you so much 👍🏼 would highly recommend to anyonePosted on Richard CooperTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent customer service from start to finish. We had semi air suspension and hydraulic levelling fitted. Extremely pleased with the professional job and the difference it has made to the ride. Thank you David and the team. Would highly recommend 👌 Best regards Richard
