Adding an aftermarket air bag system
My Friend builds hot rods for a living. Actually rat rods. In all of his applications he uses air bags. Adjustable to have them slammed but can lift if needed. We talked about it for MH's. I told him ...

So this is what I am looking for. Taking the edge and harsh feedback out of rough roads. My MH is pretty smooth and handles well until you get on bad roads. VA 264 in to VA beach or I95 is a prime example. Awful concrete roads. Feels like the windows will rattle out. Will the airbags help with that? Are the firestones easy to install?
Yes, the air bags will help that problem. Better if you have the on board dash controlled air compressor so that you can adjust pressure either up or down depending on changing road/wind conditions. With high winds on a smooth road I use up to 80PSI. Rough roads, no wind, seem to require about 50 PSI but a lot depends on how loaded the coach is. I can adjust front or rear axle air bags independently. If it is a smooth road, no wind, I deflate to around 20 PSI to keep the ride comfortable.
