Should Shock of Trailair Pin Box be Put Back Place Before Driving
Question:
I noticed the bottom of the airbag had slid out and was against the shock, but still have another 450 miles back to the house, will it be safe to get it home like that or do I need to get it into a shop to get it repaired.

Expert Reply:
As soon as you can you'd want to let all of the air out of the shock of your Trailair pin box so that you can realign it back into the top two slots it needs to fit into and also the carriage bolt that holds it from the bottom as well.
I wouldn't necessarily stop where you are at and not try to make it to somewhere with tools to do the job but you wouldn't want to keep going for a long time as the shock would wear out and you'd have to replace it with part # LC432404.
