[SEL] Re Airbags OT

[FRM8198 at aol.com]

A friend of mine installed airbags on his 4 x 4  Ford pickup.  He uses them 
as overload springs to help stabilizes the  truck loading when he has his heavy 
camper placed on the pickup.  He  regulates the air pressure inside the 
airbags depending on the load.  He  said that this set up costed him about $300.00 
(USD) and he did the installation  himself.  When operating the truck without 
the camper shell, he maintain  about 5 psi air pressure.  With the camper 
shell installed, he said that  the pickup was very stable when traveling on the 
highway.
