Who said anything about pumps? These are after market airbags which have airlines terminating at the rear bumper with schrader valves. You fill them as needed with an air hose. Running a separate airline to each air bag makes the vehicle much more resistant to leaning sideways when off-camber when off-roading. If all your looking at is street application to handle more weight or compensating for a heavy tongue weight of a trailer then by all means use a "T" fitting and terminate with a single schrader valve.

I was thinking you were tying these back into the air ride.

So your saying if your off camber, the vehicle weight pushing down on lower side air bag could transfer the line pressure to the opposite bag (inflating) which could increase the off camber even more? Isolating the two would prevent the equalization.

Exactly! Couldn't have said it any better than that!
