The install sheet said to air it up to 70#...it lifted the truck 3 inches...

I'll take it for a drive at 20 and see how it feels.
Gotta get this outside stuff done b/4 this white stuff starts up...

Hehe...I'm tryin' bud...I'm tryin'...

We're pulling this weekend (one of our last for the season) down a familiar road. It would be nice to have more time to play, but for now I just have to guess what will work.
I want to try backing off the EQ and give a little more to the bags.
It should soften the ride a bit and get more onto the truck suspension.
I can already tell running without the trailer that it holds the road so much better and isn't so bouncy. Chevy's have been known for soft suspension and this is really a must for those trucks.

I am not ready to winterize...

Thanks a lot...it's painful enough to see you guys going south to play and leaving me here in the tundra...
That's my kind of winterizing...someday...

I have a question for you guys that have the onboard controls. It was suggested to me to keep the lines separate rather than using the T for better control. Going into corners the truck would be more stable if the air didn't move side to side and let the truck move.
Now I know this isn't a sports car, but I understand the principle and wonder if it wouldn't be best to keep them apart. Thoughts?

Ozzie, I haven't pulled with mine yet, but they are individual controls. If one side of your rig is overloaded for some reason, or your weight shifts while enroute, you have the ability to adjust either side from within the cab. I also have dual inlets near the license plate. I am anxious to see how the work but will have to wait another two-three weeks. Headed for southern Cal next but must wait for surgery recovery and for the fires to subside. Best of luck in your decision......
