Air Bag Levelers for Back of P32

[Matt B]

As my signature states I have a 1997 Damon Challenger on a P-32 Chevy chassis. All the appliances and weight is on the drivers side and the coach leans toward that side all the time. I am considering installing the Air Ride airbag leveling system in the rear to level up the coach and improve the ride height.

Basically I am looking for comments in the positive or negative. Anyone here have any experience with these systems. It really looks fairly easy to install and they are not that expensive.

Thanks in advance.

First are front air bags up to proper PSI?
Could be just a weak or broken front or rear spring.

I would check these before installing rear air bags.

I did have Firestone rear bags on a 93 Allegro. But were installed for a low rear end.

I had air bags on the back of my Minnie Winnie Cl C . Each side had it's own air valve. I liked it and never had a problem with them. Put more air in and you could watch the mh go up.
I think they wee 'Maxx Air'

That's exactly what air bags are for. If you find the right system and installer I would think that you should be able to accomplish your goal.

Now that said, as previously suggested by "rvten" make sure you also check your front air cylinders to make sure they are properly seated and inflated. Also you need to rule out any deficiencies with the front suspension components.

Currently, technology is available that allows you to remove the air cylinders and just run with coil springs alone. This has been an effective solution for many P series owners who have sought to improve their front ride height.

Air bags in the front are fairly new. I had them replaced about two years ago. No leaks so far. What pressure I put in them is the big question. I am presently running at around 70PSI. Don't know what it really should be. I have seen the replacement springs but the pocketbook is a little light right now and they will have to wait.

OK 70 PSI is what I kept my front air bags atg on my pass 3 P-32 chassis.

Age of your MH could be just worn out weakleaf spring in rear drivers side. This I would think. Will put an extra load on the front spring also. When I put rear air bags on 87 Allegro. I kept them at 55 PSI.
