Newell Coach Air Bag Removal! Working on a Million Dollar RV from 1996: What's It Like?

What happens here

With the old airbags removed, inspect the condition of the removed parts. The creator shows an old airbag, noting its severely aged condition and a manufacturing date from 1994, confirming it was original to the motorhome. He also reviews the corroded air line fitting that caused significant difficulty during removal, indicating it needs to be replaced. The process of installing the new airbags is planned for a subsequent video.

Goal: Examine the old parts to understand wear and finalize preparation for new airbag installation.
