usmc deuce cpl is on a distinguished road

I own a Kenworth with the 8 bag kw airride suspension. They ride good but they are not good offroad. Airride suspension would work much better on a bobbed deuce though. Peterbilt and some others have toyed with front airride but it is a hybrid setup. they use a single leaf spring to locate the axle then add 1 or 2 airbags to up the capacity if the suspension.
I think that my deuce rides better than my airride truck. it is a little rough on some of the big bumps when empty, but thats the tradoff with an offroad suspension. The biggest improvement on a deuce ride would be an airride seat. If setup right they ride much better than the springride seats.
Hope this answers most questions. this is also much cheeper than changing out the suspension.
