Talon-USA Introduces Truck Air Suspensions for Chevrolet and GMC Models

February 22, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
LOCUST GROVE, GA – February 22, 2007 — Talon-USA, the leading manufacturer of all-inclusive truck air ride suspension systems, has once again expanded its popular line of air-tuned performance towing suspensions with a kit designed specifically for GM made ¾-ton and 1-ton pickup trucks.

The new Talon truck air suspension kits fit the Chevrolet and GMC 2500HD/3500HD 2WD and 4x4 pick-up trucks. The GM system follows on the heels of the November 2006 release of Talon’s Dodge Ram air ride suspension kit. A Ford Super Duty air suspension kit is also available.

Matt Middlebrook, President of Talon-USA says, “There has been a great deal of interest from Chevy and GMC truck owners for the Talon kits. We’re replacing a very narrow leaf spring, so it was quite a design challenge, but we were able to pull it off successfully. I’m really happy with the way it performs.”

All Talon-USA air bag suspension kits include premium features specifically designed for towing large, heavy trailers. Serious towing enthusiasts have given the Talon-USA truck air suspension kits rave reviews for the state-of-the-art patented linkage, which provides superior handling and a smooth ride, even when the truck is empty.

Talon-USA’s air suspension system stands out from other after-market air suspension systems in that it is a complete air suspension system, not just a "helper" air spring. Talon’s unique design replaces the stock leaf spring suspension on ¾-ton and 1-ton trucks using a trailing arm/lever arm design. The design controls the axle wind-up, bucking, sway, and axle hop that is often experienced when towing with a stock leaf spring suspension.

The Talon-USA system is the only one on the market that addresses the suspension input for all four wheels and integrates the helpful assist features like auto-leveling and precision kneeling control. Other standard features on the Talon-USA system include easy-to-operate in-cab controls, including a backlit system air pressure gauge and low pressure warning light, and a powerful anti-drive feature for precision braking.

The Talon-USA system is an all-inclusive towing package. Each kit contains everything needed for installation, including the patented linkage system, premium air springs, 12v compressor, air reservoirs, rear tuning shocks, front matched shocks, air circuit, mounting hardware, wiring, and auto-leveling kit.

The kits, which can be purchased directly from Talon or by authorized dealers, feature easy installation, with no holes to drill, and no welding or cutting. The system is supported by suspension experts, built by USA craftsmen, and is backed by the best 5-year limited warranty in the business.
