AIR SUSPENSION Options!?!
Anybody out there having problems with their air suspension other than the compressor? I currently am.
Apparently, I have a bad sensor or wiring loom in the "arm" the tells the cpu which tells the compressor to add or take away air from the rear bags. The ass end of my truck has been dragging around for about a week now at totally random times.........obviously, I am looking for a solution.
I am trying to decide between two options:
First, since my air lines and bags are in perfect condition, I was thinking about wiring the lines together with a "y" and using a schrader valve and an exterior air source to air them up and down at my liking. Thus, keeping the air compressor useful via the rear hatch plug. This would also be a cool option as I could raise and lower the rear end to the exact height I choose.
Second, would be just to fix the damn thing via factory parts, but I am hesitate to do so after reading all of the repeated problems with the air ride system and the approx. cost of 600 dollars worth of parts. I don't mind spending that amount IF it would fully fix the problem....but with other compressor issues, etc. looming, I feel that I might be throwing my money away.
What do you guys think? Has anyone successfully tried my "first" option?
DUCK
