Re: DIY Air Bag Change Reply #25 – March 07, 2015, 12:12:47 pm Quote from: piku – March 07, 2015, 11:43:52 amI bought my spare bag from SD truck springs. They pretend to have the tag axle bag but nobody does except 6 week lead special order from Good year and Foretravel and Newell carry it. How long has the FT or Newell one been sitting on the shelf, though? Quote Selected
Re: DIY Air Bag Change Reply #26 – March 07, 2015, 03:48:37 pm Geeky,I believe the tag bags for your 1999 are 1R11-202, which are special order ones. Hopefully, my 1R11-039 are more common.I'll find out next week. Quote Selected

As is we delayed our cross country trip by 2 weeks because it broke RIGHT when we were doing shakedown drives before leaving. That part number does sound right. Quote Selected
Re: DIY Air Bag Change Reply #28 – March 08, 2015, 11:29:38 pm The airbags can last 20+ years, even while being used on the coach, so they're not exactly a "perishable" item with an expiration date. It would only be important if you think you'll still own the same coach 20+ years from now and you don't want to ever replace the airbags again... I think that represents a very tiny segment of readers of this forum. Quote Selected
Re: DIY Air Bag Change Reply #29 – March 09, 2015, 10:20:49 am Well, it turns out the 1R11-039 are a "made to order" item and require an undefined, long lead time. So, I have cancelled my sdtrucksprings order.Punt! Quote Selected

Re: DIY Air Bag Change Reply #31 – March 09, 2015, 01:45:10 pm I have not installed my tag axle bags yet as I had to make a 3800 mile trip to Washington State, but felt better knowing that if I had a bag go out, had a replacement along with us. Quote Selected
