Will running the airlift 1000 setup at 5 psi when not towing or hauling ride bad? Will the ass end be lifted up any and can they be used with spacers?

I haven't had a set in years and never ran spacers in the back, but they're "built and designed" to mount to the suspension without lift, but unless they're huge spacers I don't see an issue. I always ran mine when empty to have the back sit level with the front and I had way more than 5 PSI in them, it rode a little stiff, but nothing terrible.

I have 3/4 inch poly spacers at the bottom of my springs. And I am already level. How would it ride with 5-7 psi and unloaded?

5psi doesn't ride any different than stock. 5psi is just enough to keep them inflated so they don't move around. And spacers don't affect the bags since they are inside the springs

I think 8psi is the recommended minimum. I've had a line get loose and let all the air out before though. Usually I run them at 10psi

Ride isn't changed at all. The back sit's up a little bit higher, but it's not all that noticeable.

I dont want it to be lifted up any more really. Just will keep enough air in the so they dont flop around i guess
