1. An air management system for leveling a vehicle operated under dynamic driving conditions, the air management system comprising:

  • a supply tank;

    a compressor operatively connected to the supply air tank;

    a system controller integrated with the supply tank;

    a first pneumatic circuit comprising one or more air springs disposed on a first side of the vehicle and one or more air lines pneumatically connecting the one or more air springs with the system controller;

    a second pneumatic circuit comprising one or more air springs disposed on a second side of the vehicle and one or more air lines pneumatically connecting the one or more air springs with the system controller; and

    wherein the system controller is configured to adjust independently air pressure of the one or more air springs of the first pneumatic circuit and adjust independently air pressure of the one or more air springs of the second pneumatic circuit without establishing pneumatic communication between the first and second pneumatic circuits;

    wherein the system controller is configured to establish pneumatic communication between the first and second pneumatic circuits when the system controller is not adjusting independently the air pressure of the one or more air springs of the first pneumatic circuit and not adjusting independently the air pressure of the one or more air springs of the second pneumatic circuit.
