Tested out the bags today....they seemed to work pretty good. My first truck with bags so it was pretty exciting airing them and blowin them down lol....My only question is....is there a way to tone it down a bit....seems when I hit a couple of the switches this thing hops up in a heart beat and I wouldnt want to be in it when it goes up like that? any ideas....I guess not put as much air in the tank....but id like to have full air and when I hit the button to go up it kind of slowly rise...or just not so fast...ill try and post a video. A guy i walked to today said i could put filter valves on the release solenoids to slow it going down...but what do I do about up?? thanks!

it will slow down a good bit once theres a moter/tranny and bed on it , but you can always run lower pressures in the tank also

CuRtdOgG · 03-07-2012, 06:04 PM

thanks for the info...i saw some valves for slowing the air down...I didnt know if i needed them or not? I guess ill try it like this and see what it does with the motor and bed all on....if not then ill try some valves I guess...Thanks for the help though!!

96twodoor · 03-07-2012, 06:07 PM

Cool man! Do you know what size valves you have? You might Look at getting smaller orifice valves.

like the tranny mount?....I think they're all the same, but you may have to mess around with the crossmember....

CuRtdOgG · 03-09-2012, 11:44 PM

Yeah thats what i was wondering...May have to be moved a little...hopefully not but if so i can make the adjustment on my own i think.. did u watch the youtube video? what would u suggest I do to slow the rate of air when I hit the switvh...I like it fast just not instantly like it is lol..

mooseknuckles · 03-10-2012, 12:03 AM

the link isn't workin for me...

mooseknuckles · 03-10-2012, 12:09 AM

what size fittings are you using?...some shocks would take some of the bounce out of it....

CuRtdOgG · 03-10-2012, 01:17 AM

try to copy and paste that. I will have to check on the fittings tomo....and a guy suggested shocks off of a 97 nissan hardbody and said they would work? do you knwo of a better suggestion? or what would work good? I wish that link would work so you can see what I am talking about

ringger14 · 03-10-2012, 03:41 AM

That linked worked. Is it supposed to be that aggressive when it changes height? I know nothing about bagging since I did a static drop but im thinking I made a horrible choice haha.
