The purpose for airbags

At the risk of sounding like the pure novice that I am, here goes: Are airbags even necessary ? We've got our coach pretty well loaded and it seems to have a smoother more natural ride without them.

What chassis? What bags, front, rear or tag? If it is a P30, check the ride height to factory specs.

It's a John Deere chassis 31 ft 460, front and rear bags, no tag.

Jack,
On my 32' Deere, I have rubber bags in the front, but they are solid. The rear ones (Firestone Ride Rite) are the ones with the air adjustment.

Hey Jack,
Definitely four airbags in mine. Two air valves in rear and two up front. Actually right now just three. The bag on the driver's side won't hold air for more than a few days.
