How are you all doing with your friends and family's... I hop all are doing fine

Would you please educate me about my coaches air springs?

The number of my airbag suspension engraved 1T15L, and there is a stamp next to it says L-2. All of these numbers are on the rubber airbag... are these numbers as same as 1T15L2 ? Because that what I found on there -Firestone- official site.

One more thing... is Newell uses a universal size air springs which is available in other brands like WABCO or GOODYEAR? or they have there own special custom make ones? Are air-springs like tire sizes?

Thank you in advance

best thing to do to learn about the airsprings is go to the firestone airspring site. they explain the different types and sizes etc.

as for universal....ha.

there are a zillion different airsprings and newell as well as others used a ton of different ones. i have posted my journey on finding the right ones for my tag axle.
