[OVERKILL 19]

You airbagged the front?

Nm,.. I just went back to your original post to see what your plans were.

I see you only have a single needle gauge,.. you are going to get swaying when you turn because one bag will be displacing air to the other one,..

Ya I know but I use it for pulling a trailers not really a issue. I was going to change out to the dual but at $300 for a gauge and controller could not really justify.I have not noticed it swaying yet

It's more noticeable with a sled deck, or something hauled in the bed of the truck.

Inline check valve helps to keep equal pressure if need be

The switch in the cab,I can air up or air down. How would you air down with a check valve inline? Plus If you are getting lots of sway youve got way toooo much air in the bags. They are to help the load not carry it all!

I had a ball valve on both to issolate if needed. Dam rocks coming off the tires go to the strangest places
This was on my '04 1/2 ton.

I don't have an issue with my truck doing that, or have never noticed the truck swaying.

It can be, I run a camper and it's tall. The separated lines really helped take the sway away and level the truck a bit more. The weight up high makes the difference although a 1 ton has a beefy swaybar for that reason.
