60 psi is what I have in my 34 foot. Seems to do the trick as she floats along nicely

Just had new air bags installed last week and the suggested PSI is 70# front axle & 30# tag axle. The valve stem extension kit makes checking the front bags very easy....

Carl,

Where did you get the valve stem extension kit?

The Chevy Motor Home manual calls for a specific ride height. It is a metal to metal measurement right next to the rubber bump stop. Whatever air pressure is required to achieve the proper ride height is correct. The springs sag with age, so the more sag you have, the more air you need. I will send a copy of the chart and drawing on request.

PPPITIFUL: The valve stem extenstion hoses came with my AirLift 1000 box of bags. We attached the upper ends of the hoses just inside the radiator grill gate. Bill h's post is a perfect illistration of the installation. Contact AirLilt, I'm sure the
extension hoses are available.
