Good morning from a soggy El Paso. After my friend Gary Cook tore up his coach when he blew a tire he also made a small pin hole in the air bag. Two questions. Is there a way of sealing a small pin hole on the outside of the bag? Second does any one have a spare bag laying around. I used up the spare I got when I bought my coach. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Marcel in El Paso

Marcel,
bad bags are not really repairable. Some have put flat tire
stuff in them and had temporary fix. Do not put stop leak in
the bag connected to the rest of the air system. It will mess
up the whole system. With the price of new air bags going
to $334.00 and getting scarce, you might have trouble
finding any used bags available, unless you find someone
changing to a four bag system. Maybe after the international
rally you might have better luck. Someone might buy an
upgrade there. Now might be a good time to look at Jim K's site.
He has a low priced 4 bag system upgrade that is not as good as
The quadra bag system but it might be a way to go.

We have been selling good used bags as well as new. By Summer we
should be sold out on new bags. We had around 500 in June, now we have
but 30 .
The Duel Bag system is catching on. We have over 30 of those pairs out
there. For $800-850
per pair , you cant go wrong.

Hi Jim
Thanks for h elping out Gary after his missfortune. Used my spare bag this
morning to replace his old one that seems to have a small pin hole in it. I
am looking for a used one as a spare until summer when I will replace my
bags with your 4 bag system before my run to Alaska
If you have a good used one let me know how much you would like for it.
Thanks
Marcel

Dan and Terri and we will be ziping through your city on our way to the

convention in Montgomery ,TX. I'm hopping my rig will make it there.
Were thinking of stopping to see Hal Kading at his hanger.
I first need to have Grace skip her job a day early to leave early.
