Air bag on P32 has blown again. What would happen if they were not replaced?
Thanks

I would suspect that the ride height would be off, the alignment would be out whack and it won't ride really good.

But get a good set of replacement springs, a front end alignment and you should be good to go. While your at it check the bell cranks, ball joints and tie rod ends.

The last P-30 motorhome I owned, I did just what Dale suggests. I put a set of after market heavier springs in, had the front end aligned, and threw those pesky air bags away. No problems in over 25K miles I kept it after the spring install. As I remember it even handled a little better.

When my bag would'nt hold air and of course they had to order the bag, I inflated it with 'fix a flat' and it held 80 PSI for over a month til the new bag came in.
If it was'nt warranty, I may have neve changed it.
I've had 2 of them leak and both times it was right where the valve stem goes in the bag, not the valve stem it self.
Before putting the fix a flat in I put a hose clamp around the bag to hold the stemin tighter.
I have no idea how long I drove it flat, but I really did'nt notice any difference.

Henderson Supersteer Coil Springs don't require bags, and are a direct replacement for the P-32 springs
