Cracked Bags
 
After installing the air suspension I needed to store the truck outside for 5 years. I took care to block the suspension so the bags were at their approximate natural ride height.

I noticed cracks are starting to form on the bags. Is this something I should be concerned about?

They are rubber they can dry rot just like a tire with age.

I figured they would crack eventually. What is the typical lifespan I can expect? How bad do the cracks have to get before I should replace them?

Take some pictures of the bags if you can.
