New use for old air springs!
While working on the install of the shocks/air-springs I came up with this idea for my old air-springs.
My son wanted one for his garage after I raised one side of his truck in five seconds.
Notes: If you push all the air out of the bag and then put your finger over the fill hole, it keep the bag deflated utill in place. You could put a shut off valve at the elbow if you want.

Dale that is very slick. A couple of small wheels and a handle would make good additions to the idea.
How do you regulate the height?

Dale,
Plus a lot cheaper than the $159 they want on ebay.

Good to see you going green and recycling. Helps to make up for your fuel sins.

Why stop there, Dale. We already know they will support the coach. What better way to lift an axle to change a tire?
Jon, I know, but remember I bought the air/hyd. 20 ton, I better use it or Jan will think I wasted $70

Dale....you are screwed no matter what. As soon as Jan realizes those air bags are still good enough to raise a car or bus axle she will ask why you needed new ones or the expensive jacks.
You might as well go inside now and try to figure out how to head this one off at the pass.
