Re: Ride Height Valve Reply #1 – January 16, 2012, 08:47:29 pm Never had to replace a height valve on the FT, did a few on the MCI, point is, I would order from FOT for the exact correct valve, for me, I would most likely go with a universal from a truck supply house. ALSO I have not looked at the setup with the HWH leveling system, so no idea if any difference between the valves. Recommend FOT for correct replacement. Quote Selected

Re: Ride Height Valve Reply #3 – January 16, 2012, 09:50:38 pm We had to have the front one replaced on our trip last spring. I do not remember the part number of the one that was on it. The below links provide information on the one they installed and it is working fine. It was the NAPA KN2700 made by HALDEX.Chassis Height Control Valve with Linkage Kithttp://www.precisionframe.com/rvdetail/CountryCoach/pdf/RideHeightValveInstallProcedure.pdfLeveling Valve IHC, KN27000, Haldex-Midlandhttp://www.haldex.com/Documents/hbsna/Suspension_Controls/L20664_Suspension_Products_Brochure_1-10.pdf (see page 12)I purchased an additional unit on eBay to have as a spare in the future.

Re: Ride Height Valve Reply #6 – January 16, 2012, 11:37:25 pm I would imagine they would not be much to rebuild. A few o-rings... Quote Selected

The valve we had to replace had something broken inside. When the tech opened it up, a broken piece fell out. He commented that it was not repairable and would have to be replaced. Luckily he found the replacement one at their local NAPA store. Quote Selected

It doesn't effect the HWH as far as level goes when parked. However my coach will leak air to zero in 4 or 5 hours. They are just one of the culprits, all of the plastic adjustable pressure regulators are leaking as well. Running down the road the compressor is cycling more than it should without any brake application and relatively smooth roads. As Dave said I may pull one off and see if it will come apart might be able to rebuild em. Quote Selected
Re: Ride Height Valve Reply #9 – January 18, 2012, 08:46:10 pm Bruce, MOT does carry the valves but are more expensive than finding them on line. If you have the steel valves, they are repairable, plastic ones are not. There are LOTS of small parts in the repair kit! Good luck! Quote Selected
