Emergency Air Up
Question for the Guru’s
If the compressor fails and the reservoir is fully pressurised - I assume the suspension will raise as best it can given the available air - or - will the system just fault and not try raise at all.
Reason I ask is that we travel to some remote places in Australia and I think that the compressor is the weak link in the system. I have onboard compressors and a reservoir that charges to 200psi. I do not want to permanently join the two systems because of contaminants & water.
I am planning to put one is these Schrader valves directly onto the suspension reservoir so that I can manually charge the system and at least raise the thing off the stumps and then pull the fuse if the compressor does fails.
There are some EAS systems available - besides being ridiculously priced, require cutting into the existing tubing that I don’t want to do.
