Normally that chassis (Chevy P32) has two air bags, in the front. Some motorhomes had rear air bags added by the coach builder - not sure if yours is one of those but I think not. The required air pressure depends on the front axle weight rating and varies from 40 to about 90 psi. It can be varied acrosss a fairly broad range to give the desired ride and handling. Try starting at 50 psi and adjust up or down. More psi yields a harsher ride but former handling in corners.
