Re: ride height valve Reply #1 – February 12, 2017, 06:08:02 pm I believe the original equipment was a haldexImmediate response valve.The second one is more widely available but it is a standard flow. I have one on my left rear and can't seem to see or feel a difference. I'm now carrying a Haldex IR as a spare since I have had one internally break do to rough road conditions that brought me to a smoking halt.90555105 - Height Control Valve - Replaces 90554241 - Haldex productwww.wheelerfleet.com/mobile/product.aspx?ProductCode=kn27000wb&404;http://www.wheelerfleet.com:80/KN27000WB-AIR-VALVE-p/kn27000wb.htm= Quote Selected

Re: ride height valve Reply #4 – February 13, 2017, 08:30:06 am I replaced one of my rear ones with the Haldex 90555105 back in Oct. See Travel Mode Air ProblemI would recommend that you get new fitting when you get the valve.Removing the old ones off the valve at the bench was neither fun nor easy. I had to use my 22mm wrench and at that scraped a little off the elbow threads.JohnFitz says :"If this is the same fitting on my coach, I believe its a Parker P/N: VS269NTA-6-4 (or equivalent of anothermanufacture)t These are specifically made for DOT Nylon Tube Air brake lines - thus the NTA in the part number.-6 is the tube size in 1/16th of an inch, so 3/8" OD on the air brake line (thats whats on my coach)-4 is the thread size in 1/16th of an inch, so 1/4" NPT that threads into the ride height valve.The tubing and fitting should be marked DOT so you can tell they are compliant with that standard and thuscompatible." He provides more info in the above referenced post. Quote Selected

Mine just look like the standard one, but I will admit I need to double check. Immediate response valves are exactly what they say, immediate...so any bump or movement is putting air in or dumping air out of the bags, instantly. There is a reason for the delay. Static ride height is to be controlled when not going over bumps...otherwise there would always be air going in/out of the airbags as the RV rolls down the road. Quote Selected 1 Likes
