Air bags - wired or wireless or no compressor

[Scar1331]

About to buy the Airlift bags https://www.amazon.com/Trailer-AIR-...f=sr_1_2?keywords=57289&qid=1574119756&sr=8-2

My question is do I really need the compressor or can I install that set with out a compressor and then set at 5 psi and only change when I need using a carry along compressor - I tow about 2 times a month.


how often do I need to check they have air in them??

or get this?

I put airlift bags and daystar cradles on my power wagon several years ago... without a compressor and wireless controller. I got the bags that have the internal bumpstop, so there is no need to run any air in them unless needed to level up the truck. I just put the two air chucks in the back by the license plate and fill them up manually when needed. It has been a great setup.

Realistically, I probably only tow heavy enough to need them about a half dozen times per year. But, in all honesty I think I am gonna splurge on a compressor and wireless setup. It will just make life a lot easier, and it really doesn't cost much for the setup.

But, definitely go with the dual path setup.

Get a wireless controller, you won't regret it. I have the Air Lift WirelessOne and it works great. It has a visor remote and an app. Both connect every time and just work. Also, it keeps the bags at the set pressure through temperature and load changes.
