Air Height valves

[John McGinnis]

Bruce, I don't know what the specific problem might be with the leak in
leveling system but FWIW I'd like to suggest while your in that area
working you might want to take the time to replace the swivel ball
joint on the end of the connecting rod on the air leveler. It's a
$3.00 part and after 20 years of road grime it will seaze up and break
off. That happen to me on the first day of ownership of my bird. I
thought I had an air leak or ruptured air bag until we crawled around
underneath and found the rod hanging loose. Driving in some road
conditions it would wiggle around and catch and the bag would inflat
then others it would deflat. Somewhere I have the NAPA & Carquest part
numbers for the ball joint. Maybe Bill Pape will come on, I sent him a
NAPA ball joint awhile back he lives on his bird & mine is in storage
so he can get to the parts number quicker. Good luck.
