Air Bag Suspension Question

Is an airbag suspension setup to use for daily driving, or is it strictly for show purposes only? Would it be safe to run air bags on a daily driver?

Yes, a properly designed and installed air suspension makes for a great daily driver. My 01 ext cab chevy has been bagged for over a year and I drive it everyday. I even travel several hours to shows in it and I love it! I hope that helps!

Like bagged01extcab said, yes "IF" it is done properly. Most people don't realize that almost all of the big rigs on the road, and the majority of commercial buses and large motor homes use air suspension.

What makes the so reliable is they are engineered correctly from the beginning.....

I agree w/ Ken. Installation is key and also the quality of components installed. Check out the following link to see how many people drive their bagged trucks daily.
