I have never done anything with bags either but I hope not to have an issue with too much leaking, I will try and be very careful making good connections. I have decided to get some 545 Loctite to seal my threads, seems to be a popular choice and many claim leak free installations using it.Santa's Comet wrote:Mike, Do you expect the air bags to loose air often? Just wondering about the tank reserve air. I've never messed with air bags or shocks so I'm curious.
Yes I will be doing that, in my map it has one listed but just doesn't show it separate from the pressure switch (they have them that way, but going to go with separate ones).Ratical wrote:I am thinking you have to run the air pressure switch to a relay and run a larger wire direct from battery to power the compressor.
One issue with Teeing the bags is possibly not getting them level side to side, one bag may need a little more or less air to ride level, also what you mentioned about it loading the other bag an a sharp turn. Everything I have read says keep each corner on it's own control. The difference in cost is in the neighborhood of $40 more for the additional paddle valves, maybe less because I would have to run a second line with fittings and some way to air them down that would bypass the check valves.Ratical wrote:Thinking front to back (teeing front bags together, teeing back bags together) you will still want to use check valves per bag or in a sharp turn it will lean as air pushes from left bag to right. just a few things I see
Thanks for the input.
See Ya,
