Mickey,
Was that $1200 to install the bags, plus parts costs?

Len,
Are you aware that JimK discontinued these kits due to a possible design
flaw?

I just put on the bag kit from Jim K, the kit formerly known as "The Dual
Air Bag System". Works fine and has a better ride.
Cheers,
Len

I have the same bags. I believe that my true tracks keep the bogies straight enough that the twisting is minimized.
What, me worry?

I haven't put many miles on "Money Pit" for a variety
of reasons. However, since I had one bag leaking and
the other LOOKED pretty rough, I had Todd Sullivan
put his system on at Shawnee. It appears to be a very
good approximation of the original bag, but larger in
volume and might be expected to give a slightly softer
ride. The coach rides quite comfortably and the shocks
control any bouncing quite well. Some others have said
that a quadrabag system offers better control but a ride
that's more than just a little more firm.
I don't expect sports car handling from 12,000 pounds!
In other words, I'm quite satisfied with the Sullybilt
system on my coach.

Strad,
The convention here is to sign off like this:
Strad
Location (City - State)
Coach (Year - Model)
However, there are some of us that have been here so long that everybody knows where we are and what kind of coach(s) we have so we
just sign.
Regards,
Rob M.
Come to think of it that's not that smart, the reason being a newbie wouldn't know that!
The reason we do that is if you ask a question knowing what kind of GMC you have and where you are matters. You asked about air
bags, obviously if had one in Australia it wouldn't make sense to offer it to you as the shipping would be prohibitive.
Regards,
Rob M.
