The OP has a DP with Reyco Granning IFS! No relation to P30 or other air bags.
My advice is to verify that you indeed have a problem with the air bags before even considering replacing them. I inspect a lot of 10+ year old DP's, and rarely see an air bag that needs replacing.
Right Bret.
Currently, I have no problem with the front air bags. Just thinking about being proactive since they are 13 years old. Last year, I had one of my rears leaking, and the other was extremely weathered and dry rotted. Therefore, I changed them out. (I had to, or the coach would not have passed New York State Inspection.)
On my recent trip to Spartan (last week) for some factory service, on their 100 point chassis inspection they pointed out that the front air bags were starting to show some weathering, and I should keep an eye on them. They even took me down into the pit to show me (amongst other things).
Upon my return from Spartan, I had to take the coach to my mechanic for the annual New York State Inspection. In doing so, I asked him to give me his opinion of the condition of the air bags. He concurred with Spartan - not an immediate concern, but something that I would want to keep my eye on. If anything, I may just get the bags and keep them in the bay. That way, should something happen, I would at least have the bags on-hand. Could even change them in a campground if I really, really had to.
