air gauge question

im running a dual needle up front and a single needle in the back because i only have up and down out back. my question is at ride height the gauge for the back says 80 psi so would that be 40 psi in each bag or 80 in both?

Re: air gauge question

They won't fit where my bags are mine are already less then 1/2" from the bed sides. And the psi is high because it's close to the pivot point

Re: air gauge question

You would think it would be bouncy but it rides really well
