How much air pressure will you be needing to maintain the 4.75" height? Will it be too soft, too hard? If you take a corner aggressively will you suffer from body roll?
Depending on the driving situation, weight in the truck, freeway, in town, track, winding scenic road out in the country, that usually plays a big part in desired bag pressure. May have to adjust bag height to accomplish desired comfort in ride quality.


I have this info bookmarked from 67c10rustbucket: Info I refer back to now and again.



I've read a few articles. Info you probably already know.

Not sure if any of this will help.
Sure do have a truck load of cool stuff going on.
Keep it up cause your build info is really helpful on my build.
Those are the exact questions running through my head. I think the pressure will be too low since the bag will be pretty short at only 4.75", they'll go all the way up to about 12". I'm thinking that I'll need to cut and raise the upper mounting area 2-3" so the bag will be taller. Then I can add shims under the bag if I need to adjust the bag height/pressure at a certain ride height.
