    That is my suspension. Would you by chance have one for the flip axle? Pictures of trailer air bag and flip axle attached.

    Thanks, you've talked me into a RGN.

    I've learned in this thread it takes no real experience, can be done with any truck by any driver, and the pay is phenomenal.

    Here I come
