I Have the Air Baggies.. and the most important thing to go with them is.. A 7 Year GM Warranty Bumper to Bumper. Plus my dealership knows HUMMERS. They service about 5 to 7 a day

And when that warranty runs out I'll buy another if I don't have a 2017 H2

ALRIGHT! on my 5th try I remembered how to log in. Just wanted to say that my air suspension has been draggin for a couple of weeks . I unbolted the air compressor and tossed it in the trash then I joined three hoses together with a fitting. One hose from each airbag and one hose that leads up into the cargo area for hooking up to to fill tires. Then I stuck my shop air hose in fitting in cargo area and filled up my air bags. Walla! level hummer with air ride. Heres a pick maybe. doug

Neat Idea.... But when the outside temp changes so will your ride height. Same as tires... Cold out side ..Need more air... Warm outside tire pressure goes up less air....

Maybe you could hook an air pressure gauge up to that line and fill till your rig is level..then note the pressure and then you'll be able to nail it agian as the temp changes.

Also don't forget that the up and down movement of the bag during operation down the road creates heat which will raise the pressure...

Any comments..on the above.. Jump On In ??

Well I never thought it would happen to me. I got to my sister's for Christmas (an hour from home) and realized my rear end had bottomed out. My rear end did fishtail at one point on the way here...I am not sure that has anything to do with it. It looks like my driver side bag is partially inflated but my passenger side is completely deflated. Both sides are on the bumpstops.

Should I have gotten a "service air suspension" warning or something? I've read that though other people's airbags had popped they could still hear the compressor pumping? I don't hear that either. I checked the fuse in the dash and the larger fuse in the engine bay both look good. The button to raise the truck does nothing when i depress it.

I have a 2003 Adventure package. Is there anything else I should look at? Unfortunately it is Christmas day and I am not sure when I am going to be able to get it to a dealer. Should I tow it home? I think my long term plan will be to replace the airbags with a regular shock system...as much as that pains me.

Sorry to hear of your problem on Christmas day

I had mine go out one day on the way to work and it was as 60 mile round trip. I then drove it to the dealer that was an hour away. The ride is rough but doable.

Good luck, Ed

P.S. You should have got a "service air suspension" warning when it went out
