REAR AIR BAG PRESSURES

[ed@icollect.com]

IT SURE IS CONVENIENT TO BE ABLE TO ADJUST REAR AND SIDE HEIGHT WITH AIR BAGS.  THE QUESTION I HAVE THOUGH, IS WHAT IS AN ACCEPTABLE WORKING AIR PRESSURE AND ALSO, WHAT IS THE MAXIMUM ACCEPTABLE AIR PRESSURE FOR THE AIR BAGS??  MY CLIPPER HAS SOME TAILWAGGING, THOUGH NOT AS BAD AS BEFORE INSTALLATION OF NEW UPPER/LOWER BALL JOINTS.. HELP APPRECIATED....ED

Every clipper will be different depends on how and with what it's loaded with on mine with full gas and propane and empty holding tanks I keep 65lbs I keep a battery operated air pump so I can raise it up more if I need to or for leveling don't know what the max pressure is hope this helps also my clipper has a extra 50 gal gas tank behind the rear axel adds lots of extra weight

It is my understanding that 80 pounds is about the maximum you want to inflate the air bags.
