Hello all,

Thanks for all the answers - but it turned out that we went the flatbed route rather than "the hook". I pumped the rear end up as high as possible then shut off the quad bags using the valves incorporated into the system. Luckily it was a bit warmer (-18) and the rear end was only down a but 12 hours later upon arriving at Borrmann's garage. Had it been the -25 we'd had in early January the rear would have been most if not all the way down and we might have had some difficulty getting yhe coach off the flatbed without damaging the tail pipe.

But I guess I still don't understand why (if we'd gone the hook route) 100 psi supplied to the air reservoir by a tow truck would be any different from 100 psi coming from my Viair pump....
