Some may have read my other thread about my new Silvertone airbags being too short at full extension.
I'm wondering what is the normal airbag extension at normal ride height? I seem to be about 1" low at the back at my automatic ride setting, and my airbags are at ~15" total from arm to arm, so if I got them up to proper ride height they will be 15.5"plus.
I looked at the length of the emergency airbag substitutes and they show either 13.5" or 15", so that makes me wonder was their 2 different arms? or?

Obviously mine has the 15" length.
Or was 13.5" the airbag length for 16.5" bias ply tires and 15" is now the length with 16" radials?
