:clapping: Congrats man. I haven't seen a finer example of the Leet attitude in quite a while. Lord knows there's only one way to enjoy oneself when leaving the pavement and we all know it has to contain -dition in the title somewhere. I had to relearn that though 'cause when I was a kid we just called it a road trip with some camping. Going on an Expedition sure sounds fancier though, gotta admit. :bowdown:

I have only one problem with carrying loads with air; not air.

Nope, Not air. The opposite of air.

You're right. I'm probably tainted by old school air shocks that always leaked and were never balanced from one side to the other. If they were hooked up separate, they were never equal. If you hooked both into a single line they would transfer air from one to the other as you went around a corner. Kind of like an opposite anti-swaybar. You could never get them to stay where you wanted.

I understand the confusion. Air shocks used to be everywhere but that's a frightening thought when you consider all your weight is now fully suspended on a couple 1/2 bolts.
Airbags are quite a different animal.
They've earned a good reputation for a reason. Semi trucks/trailers have been using them for what...40-50 years now?
High end cars (including the tesla) have gone to air for its positive traits.
I wish I could figure a legitimate, functional, and cost effective way to use bags in something that actually does flex deep for rocks. I'm sure it's possible...just not sure the average wallet could make it happen. Lord knows mine cant. Haha

The problem with bags and flex is the longer the bellows the less weight it holds. Daystar cradles are the closest thing you'll get to a solution, and it won't work for a bag-only setup, but it does work well for helper bags.

Thread started in 2013. These are my favorite.
Keith hopefully figured it out by now.

I fail to see how the tread's creation date makes any difference if the topic is still a hot one these days...
Nice underdrive....JACKWAGON! Love it.
Back to topic, For Jeeps, and it may be more than JKs but I know for JK there is a full blown air system. Nets you 6" of lift, Full flex and you can adjust up and down for what your doing. Its really cool, but for the life of me I cannot remember the name.
