Default Question for those running UAS bags..

What psi do you guys generally run at ride height? Been messing around with air pressures to find what's best and was wondering what the rest of you guys are running..

What are your pressures?


I'm not on UAS, but mine are 78 front and 108 rear. The rear seems high to me, but they're sleeves so I'm assuming that's why they require more pressure.

It's crazy how much more pressure the sleeve type struts need. My front are a double bellow bag.

Max on UAS bags is 110PSI I believe. If you ride above they will blow from the inside!

depending on your coilover settings, the fender to floor will vary.

If it rides comfortable, you're fine... Dampening, height adjustments, and bag pressures all vary, and no one should have your setup brother .
