    I seen a thread somewhere on this board about deflated air ride on trailer and then someone posted cfr 393.207 but that mentions loss of air, it doesn't mention if your air ride has been bypassed and you have no air ride at all, so what does the law say about that and how unsafe is it, what is holding your suspension together when all your air bags are deflated?

    Got a ticket for the trailer bags being deflated in Missouri, was put OOS for it. So I would venture to say they need to be inflated.

    It would damage your air bag bases and beat the crap out of the load and the truck and tri now if your weight is good you can dump and raise one axle and just run on one if you want
