Just wondering if running around with the air too high will affect pinion angles? Could this be harmful.

That is going to be dependent on what type of rear suspension he is running. In short, if the pinion angle is out it can destroy the rear end however with most modern accecptable rear suspensions... you can have a couple inches of travel adjustment without a notable change in pinion angle.

Thats what I thought myself and another tech I talked to said the same thing. So its safe to assume we can rule out the airbag causing anything.
Thanks for the reply.
