Ride Rite compressor systems?
I want to get a Firestones air bag sytem for my truck. The load is an ever changing variable. So I do not want to manually inflate and deflate the bags every time I carry a different amount of weight.
I would like to have an air compressor kit, but I don't know which one. The basics are that the psi must be independant from left and right. It must be able to withstand almost daily use. And I would prefer the "cleanest" looking application. I don't want a sensitive cluster of guages and switches jutting out for one of the other workers to bump into. Noone is ever as careful with a vehicle as the owner.
Sad but true.
So any suggestions and/or advice as to what would be the appropriate setup for this situation is greatly appreciated. Thanks

I don't have the compressor for my air bags, but rather have a compressor for the Rancho 9000's instead. I don't know what psi the compressor is capable of for the Rancho's, but the unit is very clean for mounting, and maybe you could use this setup for your air bags?
I personally wouldn't want to chance this set-up for air bags though, as any MINOR bleed down through the compressor/fittings would deflate the bags big time. When you put a load on the bags, there is very little air in the bags (capacity). You can manually inflate them with a small portable compressor in a matter of a few seconds due to this small air charge required. Just my humble opinion
