Question:

Hi, This is a clarification of my earlier question. Sorry I suck at typing. Do you have a T-Fitting for the F2445 air bag system? I have read that one can have only one air valve so the air pressure is automatically even. Is there a problem with pressure shifting from one side to the other? Thanks,

Just answered your previous question and yes, you would want the Firestone Union Tee # F3025-1.

Using a union T like this to equalize the pressure between the two bags is a great way to make sure that both bags have equal amounts of pressure in them. You would not have to worry about the air pressure shifting from one bag to other and having the air bags not be effective. The bags do not stretch enough for that to be a problem.
