rear air bag susp. travel
Will 3 inches to my bumpstop be fine for a daily driver ? Sleeve type bags, looking for a smooth ride.

Re: rear air bag susp. travel
Yep. 3" should cover most road surfaces w/o issue. Bigger dips on the highway @ speed could possibly unload/load the suspension a little more aggressively (possibly).

Re: rear air bag susp. travel
Should I count on my shocks limiting my suspension unloading or have some sort of strap? Don't want these sleeve bags to expand fully!

Re: rear air bag susp. travel
Straps would be better. I'm not sure about all shocks, but I've seen @ least 1 brand of shock blow the seals from being used as a travel limiter w/bags.

Who makes/sells straps. I've never seen them.
