Air Bag issue

I have a huge problem I had a rear air bag fail to inflate and hold air, I ordered new rear bags but they won't be shipped now until Sept. 30th and my rig is broke down in South Dakota and I am in Colorado, so far the place I was at in SD has let me keep it there till the parts come in well they were suppose to be here today (**** Covid). Is there any way to inflate the bag and keep it that way so I can bring it home? Or am I screwed. If not I have to drive up there and winterize it too.
  • Since you did not list the make or model/year its impossible to help you. If the bag will not hold air, no you can not inflate it. You do not have to get it ready for winter yet. I assume you check or had it checked and the bag was the issue, not a valve or air line/connector.

    There is a nationwide shortage.
