Does any one have thoughts on how the ride is changed when going to air bag suspension? Is it rougher or smoother? can it be made firmer for better handling or softer for a cush ride by adjusting the pressure on the fly? I realize this would probably raise or lower the vehicle by doing so. Are slight increases in air pressure noticeable on the ride, in other words, would it force the vehicle way up on the ride height before you really noticed any ride firmness, or it would firm up a lot before the ride height changed much?
