I'm still getting used to this new machine and software so I accidently 
deleted your last post after I read it instead of hitting reply. <sigh?

Still, I can answer your last question. The air bags aren't live like a 
metal spring so they self damp the motion and behave much like shock 
absorbers. We had shocks on the trucks because they just weigh too much 
and still have springs under them so need shocks to damp the motion.

I hope that's what you asked, if not give me another shout

Jer.
