I dont get it, you shouldn't start dragging if your compressor goes kaput..... you just wouldn't be able to fill your tank back up. :unsure:

X2...If your compressor fails it will not drop the vehicle but the "Pop,Pop" could've been a bag. BTW, this thread should be moved to airride/bags section. http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/dirol.gif

this is why i got rid of my frame laying truck..... too much maintinence. especially when you hop and drag it all the time. unless its low psi and just up and down its not gonna last long. something always goes wrong.

hmm iight check this out... when u think about a navigator u think just a navi/expedition same shit but the only thing is i have a after market body kit on mine which lowers the car A LOT and the only thing that kept it like 8 inches off the ground is the air bags on the back and when the motor went out... the car lowered which now holds my car approximately 2½ to 3 inches above ground

Screeeeeech! Ok lets start over...Are you talking about your "Auto-leveler" system that comes stock on some vehicles or an aftermarket "Airbag/ride" setup you installed?

If the compressor on your "Auto-leveler" went out then YES, your car will drop because there is nothing to pump air and "level" it out.

this is true.

but if there is no checks in the system when the tank pressure drops itll back feed though the air valves.and the truck will drop. also depending on what kind of valves they r.
