Air Springs/Bags
Best price on air bags that I found was at truckspring.com
Front bags $123 each Rear bags $113 each robertsmotorcompany.com in Grants Pass Or. will let me bring my owne parts and install them. $80 per hour...8 to 10 hour job to do all eight air bags. This shop mostly works on big rigs but said they would do air bags on my coach.
