Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi all

I was thinking about running a set of the bellows type airbags with a crossover pipe and in cab pressure adjustment on the rear of my troopy after it gets uted.

In an effort to sort out good flex and still intermittently carry loads i was considering removing a fair few of the springs leaving the main and wrap and maybe another leaf so that they act like trailing arms and support a bit of the weight, and letting bellow air bags support the majority of the weight. When i need to flex up i was going to run the bags at a lower pressure with the crossover pipe, and let the droop side air bag drop out from the chassis (can't seem to find airbags that have any real amount of travel length and compression)

Can this be done or would the dropped out airbag flop around too much? do you think it would work? would it work with a normal set of polyairs?

I would not recommend a crossover - this would lead to a big los of stability on side hills.....
How much travel do you want? These's plenty of bags that give pretty good travel - ours allow upto 12" (each)....

thanks for the tip about the crossover. how small do these bags compress to?

if i do have to do dropouts would it be better to have it fixed to chassis end and leave hanging or fixed to axle and wobbling about on axle during droop

You would be better off running trailing arms as the springs wouldn't last last long, at least fit a very good trac bar.

Good point. didn't think about axle wrap. keep the suggestions and salient points coming
