Air Bags 2018 Windsport 29M

I am thinking of installing airbags or something similar to our 2018 29M Windsport. Any good info out there from someone that installed. Sumo or whatever. Thanks

I can’t imagine how that would be affordable. Maybe not even possible. I wish there were such basic safety systems on our machines but there aren’t. With that in mind I use my best motorcycle riding skills in the MH and hope for the best. If it was a critical issue for me I’d be driving a class C or a super C.

He's talking about air suspension, not collision air bags.

I do know there are Sumo Springs for the F-53 chassis, I myself would be more inclined to go that route, as once installed, there pretty much maintenance free !
I did install a set on the rear of my Former Truck , a Ford F-350 King Ranch, along with rear Bilstein Shocks, and it made an almost unbearable ride, somewhat pleasant!
Etrailer.com has some video of the Sumo Springs in action, and I can't see how they wouldn't help. I may put some on my 2017 Challenger 37BT, if I can keep the rest of the doors from flying off ! ! !
