“Dave T and his team are true professionals. They took on a very challenging project and saw it through to completion. We had liquid springs installed on our 2026 Dynamax 30FW Motor Home. A brand new model, where his team had to work with Dynamax Liquid Springs and the challenging engineering, they faced. High quality workmanship. I could not imagine anybody else working as hard as they did to complete this install.”

Serving Sacramento, Elk Grove, Roseville, Davis, and the I-5 and I-80 corridors
Every RV owner knows the feeling.
A semi passes on I-5 and the whole coach rocks. A washboard road out to a campsite turns into a rattling mess. A long grade through the Sierra foothills has you white-knuckling the wheel, because the suspension underneath you was built decades ago for a much lighter vehicle.
Betts Truck Parts & Service is a LiquidSpring Preferred Installer at our Sacramento branch. We carry LiquidSpring parts and handle full installation on motorhomes today.
Some people call it Liquid Spring, others LiquidSpring. Either way, it’s the same smart suspension system, and it changes how a vehicle actually rides.

What Is LiquidSpring and How Does It Work?
LiquidSpring replaces a traditional air spring or leaf spring with a compressible fluid strut controlled by an onboard computer.
Sensors read your speed, steering input, braking, and ride height up to 1,000 times a second. The system adjusts damping instantly in response.
A standard suspension runs on a fixed spring rate, either too soft or too stiff depending on the road. LiquidSpring is constantly recalculating instead. That’s the whole difference, and it’s why the ride feels different the moment you pull out of the lot.
Why Sacramento RV and Motorhome Owners Upgrade
What Sacramento Driving Does to a Stock Suspension
Sacramento sits at the crossroads of a lot of driving conditions that punish a stock suspension. Interstate 5 and Interstate 80 carry heavy truck traffic, and every semi that passes creates a gust of turbulence that rocks a top-heavy motorhome.
The drive up to Tahoe means real elevation change and mountain curves. Weekend trips out to a campsite often end on gravel or washboard roads that a factory suspension was never built to handle smoothly.
What Changes With LiquidSpring
LiquidSpring’s constant, real time adjustment cuts down on the porpoising, sway, and harsh secondary bounce that make long drives exhausting.
This isn’t a cosmetic upgrade. It’s a mechanical answer to a problem RV owners already know they have.
Signs Your RV or Truck Could Use a Suspension Upgrade
A few signals it might be time to look at LiquidSpring:
- Excessive bounce or porpoising over highway expansion joints
- Noticeable body roll or sway, especially when a semi passes on the highway
- A harsh, jarring secondary ride on washboard or unpaved roads
- Uneven tire wear that traces back to body roll rather than alignment
Driver fatigue on long tows that seems tied to how much the cab or coach moves around.
LiquidSpring for Fleet, EMS, and Mobility Vehicles
LiquidSpring doesn’t only build systems for RVs. The company also makes dedicated product lines for pickup trucks, adventure trucks, EMS and fire apparatus, and mobility platforms like transit and paratransit buses.
Betts Sacramento installs LiquidSpring on any vehicle LiquidSpring builds a kit for, not just motorhomes. If you’re running an ambulance, fire truck, transit bus, pickup, or adventure truck, call us to talk through your exact configuration.
Is LiquidSpring Right for You?
LiquidSpring is a real investment. A typical installation runs $35,000 to $40,000, so it’s worth thinking through whether your driving actually needs it.
It earns that cost on real miles: long highway hauls, washboard roads to a remote campsite, mountain grades, or routes where crosswinds from passing trucks are a daily annoyance rather than an occasional one.
If your driving is mostly short, smooth, local trips, a standard suspension may already be doing the job fine. LiquidSpring probably isn’t worth the investment yet.
Why Sacramento RV Owners and Fleets Choose Betts
Betts Truck Parts & Service has been part of West Coast trucking since 1972. Our Sacramento branch has carried LiquidSpring parts and handled installation since 2025, and we’re a LiquidSpring Preferred Installer.
We’re one of three Betts locations offering LiquidSpring today, alongside Santa Fe Springs and Fresno. If Sacramento isn’t the closest branch for you, one of those two might be.
Installations are handled by a dedicated technician trained specifically on the LiquidSpring system, not handed off to whoever’s free that day. A full install runs 40 to 60 hours of shop time, so plan to book ahead.
We also sell LiquidSpring parts on their own, if you’d rather have another shop handle the install. Call ahead to confirm current inventory before you make the trip.
Ride Smoother on Your Next Trip
Whether it’s a Tahoe run, a cross-country haul, or a fleet vehicle logging miles every day, a suspension upgrade is one of the few changes that makes every mile afterward better.
There’s no particular season to book. Whenever you’re ready to make the investment, we’re ready to schedule you in.

Sacramento, CA LiquidSpring FAQ’s
What is LiquidSpring and how does it work?
LiquidSpring, also called Liquid Spring, is a smart suspension system that replaces traditional air springs or leaf springs with a compressible fluid strut and an onboard computer. Sensors read speed, steering, braking, and road input up to 1,000 times a second, and the system adjusts damping in real time. The result is a ride that actively corrects for bumps, crosswinds, and body roll instead of just absorbing them.
Will LiquidSpring actually reduce bounce and sway in my motorhome?
That’s the main reason most owners upgrade. Traditional RV suspension was built for a much lighter vehicle decades ago, and it shows on rough pavement, expansion joints, and anytime a semi passes you on the highway. LiquidSpring’s real time adjustment cuts down on porpoising, sway, and the harsh secondary bounce that wears out both the coach and the driver on long trips.
Can LiquidSpring be installed on a truck or fleet vehicle, not just an RV?
Yes. LiquidSpring builds systems for pickup trucks, adventure trucks, motorhomes, EMS and fire apparatus, and transit and paratransit buses. Betts Sacramento installs on any vehicle LiquidSpring sells a kit for, not just motorhomes. Call ahead with your make and model so we can confirm your exact configuration.
Do you sell LiquidSpring parts if I want another shop to install them?
Yes, Betts Sacramento sells LiquidSpring parts on their own, separate from installation. Call ahead to confirm what’s currently in stock for your vehicle.
How much does a LiquidSpring installation cost?
A typical motorhome installation runs $35,000 to $40,000. Your exact price depends on your vehicle and configuration, so call the Sacramento branch with your make, model, and axle setup for a firm number.
How long does a LiquidSpring installation take?
Plan on 40 to 60 hours of shop time. Installations are handled by a single dedicated technician trained on the system, so it’s worth booking ahead rather than expecting a same-week slot.
Does LiquidSpring work on ambulances, fire trucks, and transit buses?
Yes. LiquidSpring builds dedicated EMS, fire and rescue, and mobility product lines, and Betts Sacramento installs on these platforms as well as motorhomes. Ride quality and stability matter as much for a paramedic working in the back of a moving ambulance or a transit passenger standing in the aisle as they do for an RV driver.
What's the difference between LiquidSpring and air ride suspension?
Air ride adjusts ride height using compressed air, but it reacts fairly slowly and mostly addresses load leveling. LiquidSpring uses a compressible fluid system with sensors making adjustments roughly 1,000 times a second, responding to steering and braking input in addition to load, which is why it handles crosswinds and sudden road changes differently than a standard air system.
Is LiquidSpring worth it if I only drive locally and don't tow or camp off pavement much?
Probably not as much. LiquidSpring earns its cost on real miles, long highway hauls, washboard roads to a campsite, mountain grades, or routes where crosswinds from passing trucks are a daily annoyance. If your driving is mostly short, smooth, local trips, a standard suspension may already be doing the job.
Can I test ride a LiquidSpring-equipped vehicle before I decide?
Not right now, unfortunately. We don’t currently offer demo rides or loaner units. If that changes, we’ll update this page.
Is LiquidSpring installation available at other Betts locations besides Sacramento?
Yes. Santa Fe Springs and Fresno also carry LiquidSpring parts and handle installation. If one of those branches is closer to you, call ahead to schedule there instead.
