Don't worry about the 8 bag. They ride good, very durable and if a few inches of added travel is the only thing keeping you moving then you shouldn't be driving a semi there anyway. Keep in mind guys if it's that soft your going to have bigger issues with a dump trailer than getting stuck.

Air bags are all I see in dirt work here they do get stuck quicker than springs but seem to hold up well on rough roads if you're going over a ridge go straight, catty corner going slow it will lose traction the odd thing I notice on rough roads they ride smoother empty.

Nothing wrong with having a 20 year old truck!

I know stock I was around 20-30 PSI depending on how hard I was pushing. After the rebuild well when the dyno broke I was sitting at 50 PSI with 20 more to go on the turbo and 600 PSI from the fuel pump out of 750 capable. That truck loved to scream and drink fuel like a freaking fish when she was given her head. This should give you an idea of what that truck could do. I could climb Snowshoe in PA at 80K at over 55 MPH in 11th gear which for that engine and transmission combo was direct drive. Transmission was a RTLOO double overdrive that you could not put into 12th below 60 realistically and 75 for the big hole. That set of 3.55 rears did not help on the issue or the 11R24.5 tires on the ###. She would smash triple digits if you where not paying attention running out west.
2013Maxx and cummins everything Thank this. -
I have a international 8200 with a N14 STC with a 13 speed in it, the truck was a real beast but unfortunately she had some oil pressure problems and got hurt. However I have a Rebuilt 444 just sitting around so I’m looking to put that in.
Would to get some serious hp out of the 444 if you can give any pointers.
By the way I’m from BARBADOS
Also was that 50 psi from the stock turbo ? -
Your not getting 50psi of boost from a 444 keep dreaming
