Air Pressure for airlift airbags

[jkilroy]

I installed a set of airlift airbags on my 03 2500 HD Silverado. Wondering what a good air pressure is to run on them with a 8500 lb Cougar 5th wheel. I put #45 unloaded but seems like it needs more.

Yep used for level up. Mine works if i put 25 in unhooked. Then hook up.

I run zero when unhooked.

Going for the best ride with 5th wheel attached, not ride.

What super dave said, I installed them to level my F250 first with the 5ver, then later with the Lance Truck camper, 50 lbs would level my 5ver and when empty i ran 5-10 lbs. 65 lbs with the Lance.

I had Firestone air bags and were very happy with them, they were still working when I traded my 99 F250

They are designed to level the truck when hitched, nothing more. The amount of air in them will vary with every setup.

5-100 psi mt I run at least 5 psi about 60 psi I run with 5er

If you are using the air bags as designed to level, it is simple as taking some before and after rear bumper measurements.

I used to keep 50-55 in mine, loaded with fifth-wheel and 20 when not loaded.
