    Any correlation between airbag size/capacity and ride when unloaded?

    Assuming a lower pressure in the larger bags do smaller bags ride smoother, or do larger bags?


    -grabbed a set of bags of an auction site for dirt cheap but they are rated for 5,000 lb. I don't mind making the brackets but wondering about the ride. Truck is 100% stock but will be using the bags for some lift in back

    At 5-10 pounds they are basically empty with just enuf air to keep the bags from collapsing on themselves and popping.

    This is my theory as well. Still I know very little about airbags.

    Ultimately these were $20 for bags that sell on eBay for $100 a piece so the decision to purchase them was a no-brainer
