Just trying to get consensus from this highly knowledgable and perspicacious
group
about the wisdom of leaving the original color coded air lines
serving the rear suspension in place. Coach has around 40K original miles
on it and lines APPEAR to be OK (no obvious signs of aging, cracking and
they appear to remain flexible).
Replaced dash mounted control valves before coach put up 8+ years ago. I
THINK the loss of air in the rear over the storage period was a function of
the deteriorated AIR BAGS.
Would also mention that during removal of driver side bags, one PLASTIC cone
(or piston) was so dried out it crumbled when I removed it: That's 2 of the
4 that self-destructed.
I WAS going to KD the bogeys but found them in good shape (no perceptible
"play" in axis perpendicular to pin length in any position). At least ONE
thing I won't have to do.
