Default Air Bags vs. WDS
Got this in inbox, figured it was a good read since a lot of ppl use one or both systems.

That was interesting. So are air bags pointless if you have a good WDH?

Airbags are absolutely useful no matter what. You don't have to air them up much if not needed. But they add stability and they also help to lessen or even prevent sway and shifting.

Wow I had no idea that a WD helped that much. Definitely good info even if you just watch the part with the WD. Thank you for the info

Thanks for the post. The Fastaway E2 trunion hitch is a nice hitch, made by the same manufacturer as the Equalizer.
