Title: Ride Height Valve
Post by: Wattalife54 on May 19, 2011, 12:20:37 pm
Does anyone know where the control lever should be positioned on the valve? Both of my rear valve control levers are set at different length's.

Bob,
What's important is the distance between the bottom of the top air bag plate and the top of the bottom plate, i.e. height of air bag. That should be the same ( 8"-8 1/4") for the left and right rear air bags when at ride height.

Spoke to James T today. He said that the anchored rod should be vertical when the coach is in travel and the air bag measures 8.5" minimum from the top of the top plate to the bottom of the bottom plate. The anchored rod vertical adjustment is achieved by repositioning the control lever in or out. Additionally,  measurements should be taken at the bags behind the front wheel and in front of the rear wheels. He recommended starting at the front air bags.
