Great job ~ Thanks for the tips. The next time, I'd like for you to wear clear safety glasses & leather gloves while operating the wire brush drill. I'd be happy to buy you a pliers to hold the parts while operating the wire brush. ~ God bless the planet.

Why didnt you order new quick disconnect fittings ? How much at freightliner does it cost to replace leverler system ? Thanks for posting.

thanks for sharing, my airbags were not inflated at all, so the suspension is at all the way lower position, does your truck has same problem before you replace the leveling valve? thanks

@Starkeyfamilyfixing Жыл бұрын

Well a leveling valve can screw up in a few different ways. Like not airing up , over airing up , blowing air out , ect

cool vid mate how many times have you had to replace it be for????

@Starkeyfamilyfixing Жыл бұрын

Well trucks normally have more then 1 leveling valve. There normally are one for the cab , trailer , and some trucks have front air bags too ! So they can be in many places

@Jesse-pl6hy Жыл бұрын

After unloading a load or setting tractor brakes it seems like it’s leveling slowly does that mean it’s the leveling valve?

@Starkeyfamilyfixing Жыл бұрын

Not really , my truck and trailer are normally slow at leveling.

Every morning my air bags had not air, do you think is because of this valve? I have a freightliner cascadia thanks

@Starkeyfamilyfixing Жыл бұрын

Could be , if you do not hear air from anywhere, what you can do is get a spray bottle , like a glass cleaner bottle and fill it with water and add dish washing detergent to it , shake it up . Anywhere you spray it that air is leaking, you will now see bubbles forming . This works well .

@Starkeyfamilyfixing Жыл бұрын

There are so Mary places that can leak air , this is the easiest way to find the leaks that you can’t hear. Let me know what you find !

My suspension keep lowering itself and raising itself up every minute? Could this valve be the problem? No leaks. 2015 cascadia

@Starkeyfamilyfixing Жыл бұрын

Sounds like it to me . I would check that the linkage never just popped off , could just be a simple fix . Mostly the valve needs replaced, which is still not a hard job . Let me know what you find .

Is this the same information for the one behind the cab, for the cab air bags?

I’m surprised you loos them out without braking them as they are rusted

We didn't see the part where you had to put in the golf tee or the small pin to adjust the level.

@Starkeyfamilyfixing Жыл бұрын

It was unneeded, my setup did not require this , most do not require this do to the linkage is not adjustable on most setups

@Jesse-pl6hy Жыл бұрын

How do you know when it’s not working?

@Starkeyfamilyfixing Жыл бұрын

A simple way to check it is the the linkage and push the lever on the valve up and down , this will raise and lower the truck , and if not there you go .
