Suspension question
Thanks Bob. It will have to wait till I go down to Blanco for a show. Might
have it looked at while I am down there.

should get some weight transfer to the drive axle when the tag dumps. If you
think rear is too low, you can check the drive axle tire pressures first, then
find a safe place to check the drive axle air springs and the height adjustment
valves. If you tap on the inflated air springs (bags) they should feel like a
tight drum if they are up to pressure.

have a pressure protection valve in between two junction blocks (with about 4
airlines each and above the air dryer!)Â that has a leak in the diaphram cover
that I want to replace also. I'm deaf as a post so isolating the air leaks with
the hearing aids up full blast is a task! Lots of spraying soapy water.

it likely that it is just an adjustment issue or do I have bad bags?
