our woody wagon is on hydro & it`s wonderfully comfortable

You should put your heart & soul into everything you do.

Call me paranoid (I do ) but I'd prefer to select a tube with a greater working pressure than the static pressure of the hydro system (300 PSI)... even if the burst pressure is rated in the thousands, I reckon I'd feel happier with something like the 600 PSI WP tubing underneath me.

But then, at 300 PSI static I'm surprised my 40yo hydro bags haven't let go yet.. so 300 PSI WP new plastic piping is probably well up to the job.

Hopefully

I'm not going to bother. If it thinks the rubber spring has anything to do with the pressure in the system. I'd dearly like to know how a spring gets rated in psi?

It clear has no idea how the system works.
