air over leaf??

i just purchased a air over leaf kit and I was reading about that they handle a max of 100 PSI. Are there any sleeve bags that can handle higher PSI? If not then how would i be able to control how much pressure would go to those bags? Right now im runnin 2b7 bags up front with (2) viair 400s at 180 psi. Any help would be appreiciated.

Thanks
mark

Re: air over leaf??

i wouldnt run a pressure switch higher then 175psi, i had the air over leaf on my ride before i got my link setup, i ran 175 psi on 10 gallons, like the others said, dont hold the switch open for extending periods of time or anything, and it should be fine. "normally" (dont quote me on this) the max pressure rating is 1/3 the burst\break pressure, so mathamatically it could hold about 300psi before ripping apart, although those f7076 rolling sleeve bags looks like the cant handle that much. stick with 150-175psi pressure switch, avoid riding around with the truck completley topped out (height wise) and you should be fine.

Re: air over leaf??

just because you have 175 in the tank doesnt mean you have to hold the switch open for the bags to have 175 psi! youll be fine bro
