Spartan RV Chassis Parts & Accessories Launches One-Touch Automatic Leveling System at the 2022 Florida RV SuperShow
Leading-edge technology provides stress-free air leveling

NOVI, Mich., Jan. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Spartan RV Chassis, a go-to-market brand of The Shyft Group (NASDAQ: SHYF), will exhibit at the 2022 Florida RV SuperShow and introduce for the first time its Red Diamond™ Leveling System, an exclusive aftermarket option.

The Leveling System brings quick and easy leveling to your RV, without the use of jacks. This segment-leading air spring leveling system is available for installation on Class A Coaches on a Spartan Chassis, model year 2000 or newer not already equipped with air leveling. With a simple and intuitive touchscreen interface, users have a full suite of leveling functionality, including:

  • One-touch automatic leveling
  • Manual leveling with control of each air spring while traveling at low speeds or while in park
  • Adjustable entry height to ease ingress and egress
  • Automatic protection against chassis twist

The user-friendly touchscreen provides RV owners with easy control and selection of either auto-leveling or four-point manual control of the leveling actuators. Three digital "bubble level" indicators show the exact vehicle stance, and clear visual feedback on vehicle status is provided.

"The Red Diamond™ Leveling System takes the hassle out of leveling while stationary and also while getting over bumps or under a low garage door thanks to our innovative air spring and control panel setup," said Steve Guillaume, President of Shyft Specialty Vehicles. "Solutions for easier leveling are a common request among RVers.  This is a great solution to help our loyal customers who have coaches not already equipped with air leveling."

RV SuperShow attendees are invited to visit the Spartan RV exhibit at 560 E Midway to learn more about the new leveling system and other aftermarket offerings.
