Helper bags?

I am finally getting my truck lowered next Wednesday, I am going with a 2/3 Belltech drop that we are going to try with my existing 2" drop shackle. The kit contains coils up front and new leafs in the rear with no hanger or flip kit. If all goes well and I have enough room for suspension travel for towing I will not need bags for the rear. But there is a good chance I will need them.

My question is this, is it a pain in the you know what to not have an onboard compressor or would a shroeder(?)valve work ok if it is located in a convenient and reachable spot? Meaning I would have to go to the gas station to fill up the bags prior to loading my ski's.

Thanks

I had just the two schraeder valves on the air bags I put on my '01. Wasn't a pain at all, but I have on of those jumpstart-airpump-worklight combos and could adjust pressure any time I wanted. The bags are small enough and pressures low enough I bet a floor-type bicycle pump would work fine.
