You know the correct technique is to inflate the airbags prior to loading the suspension. The alternative is to use a jack to regain the correct ride height and then inflate the airbags.

They are not designed to lift the loaded vehicle back up to the correct height.

Morning Mrs Ho har,

Did you replace the main coils to a heavier rate for your new system?

I will be interested to see how you go, but my experience with a few coilers and poly airs is they wont support anywhere near the mass of the inner helper spring (140lb/in from memory).

Measurements and tare / gross weights would be good info!!!

Regards

Steve

what happen if you load up first than inflate

i never worried as during normal offroading you are either loading up or unloading one spring all the time
