 Hey when you get to the front air bags, please let me know. It sure looks like the axle has to drop to access the bottom nuts. Maybe you could cut them and not put the nuts back on? Not sure that you would need the bottom nuts as the bag just set there.

Got  a plan , Loosen  both wheels,  Jack the nose , air it up tight,  Remove one tire, stuff the tubes between the trailing link and frame. Loosen the axle bolts  about 6 turns both sides.  Drop the axle from the same side as tire is off.  Good chance that the weight of the tire/wheel  will give a little counter balance  to the axle for bolting back up.  As long as one side is bolted, it should go back together well.

FYI changed piggy back chambers for parking brake and other diaphragms and my air stays up for hours with no leak down.

Thanks everyone for the help
