With better height sensors, you should be able to have manual _plus_ multiple settings (from low to high) highway, town, rough road and max clearance.

I agree.
I have a project diagram and wiring for changing over to a solenoid based system with electrical sensors at the rear wheels.
Time prevents be from attacking this one head on just yet and I still need to fine tune the elec sensors to a simple operation. The simpler it is, the less chance of it failing, I think...
I am in full agreement that the nice new OEM systems had to work wonderfully... but with the addition of a dozen or so extra fittings, ( PO ), it gets tougher to find.
But, there is always next year.......................

I am actually working on an open source controller for air suspension. It's called Megaride on Source Forge. It will use Cadillac, well any voltage based, sensor, and is designed to be simple, cheap and reliable. But the Cad sensors are a nice reliable non contact sensor that looks like a variable resister.
It is going to run on the MegaSquirt GPIO hardware and can control 4 corners, but just 2 corners would be simple.
I'm making it for my '29 dodge that has 4 corner air suspension. So it uses 8 relays, fill and dump for each corner, plus 1 for the compressor.
I've thought about if I would want to put it in the GMC, but my Power Level works perfectly, so why?
