Air Ride suspension
We recently purchased an 06 Coachmen Leprachaun with air ride suspension. Would like advise on how much air to put in if we are not pulling anything and also if we are pulling a Kawasaki UTV? We do...

Thanks all for the input. Sounds like it may be something we just have to fool with to get to our liking. Also this C does not have leveling jacks. Pro-Cons?????
That's about it. As others have pointed out, you most likely don't have air ride suspension, but more likely have either Firestone Ride Rite or Air Lift air helper springs. The most important thing is to keep at least the minimum pressure in the bags, or they will destroy themselves. Air Lift has a 5# psi minimum pressure and I think Firestone is the same, or maybe 10# psi. As for what you're towing, it probably wouldn't make much of a difference in the air bags' psi.
I've never had leveling jacks on any of my Class Cs, and have got along quite well without them. I hardly ever even use blocks for leveling. I've always been able to move a little, this way or that, to get "level enough". Perhaps I've just been lucky all these years in where I've camped, the sites have always been fairly level. Other people wouldn't even leave home without leveling jacks. :B
