How do bags do in cold weather?
Thinking that long-term, I might do an airbag setup on my 66 C20, just for a slight 3/4 drop and for their great ride and adjustability and versatility since I want to be able to use my truck for pulling trailers and hauling loads in the bed.
But I am probably moving to Colorado and wonder how the bags handle that. I want to use as an almost daily driver and not put it away for winter. |

Just fine Big rigs have been using them for the last 30+ years.
Buy quality components, and you'll be fine. |

My peterbilt has been thru -14° thru 126°f in 642,000 miles have only replaced 4 of 10 air bags.
It will be a test of your plumbing the cold seems to show air leaks. Posted via Mobile Device

If you use air line anti freeze you won't have a problem.

Thanks all. This is about what I figured, just good to have confirmation from those who have experience with this.
