New Air Leveling/suspension Bags

We just bought a used 2009 Monaco Dynasty Regal IV, with 76,000 miles, in FL. We drove it to the Asheville NC area. On the trip, although it was smoother than my 07 Itasca gas, it was not as "shock absorbing" a ride as I expected, possibly my expectations were too high. However, it started me thinking that maybe after 76,000 miles the air bags were a little tired. The air leveling is Power Gear, I do not know about the suspesion. Does anyone have thoughts on whether the bags could, should be replaced? And if so what something like that would run?
Thank you
Michbill

Weigh your rig's axles and then air up the tires to the air pressure recommended for those tires and your axle weights by the tire manufacturer.

The hard ride might be from too much tire air pressure.

I've over 75,000 miles on my coach and find the ride as smooth as silk, most of the time. Maybe my expectations are lower than yours, dunno.

The 10 air bag outboard system, IMHO is one of the best in the industry.

If you're concerned, have your shocks and air bags checked by a reputable service center. Your air bags should last for a very long time....Dennis
