I used these bags on the JT for years, towed trailers and hauled parts with no issues. And, they don't feel like jelly when the truck is empty.
Rob, I would like to use F9000 bags on the rear of my 72 lwb in the stock location on the trailing arm. I would like to have a softer ride than my current 5” springs but be able to haul more on demand. Do you know what the effective spring rates would be related to air pressure? What pressures do you run in the rear of JT and how tall are the spacers or brackets that you used to mount the bags? Thanks!
