Hello, Guy.
I would suggest giving Newel Service a call to determine if it is a leveling problem or suspension problem. My guess is that it could be simply a fitting or line that is giving problems. I had my left front airbag puncture from a factory defect on the airbag mount gusseting. The whole coach dropped down from the loss of air pressure. A heavy truck repair shop in Western Pennsylvania installed the airbag I ordered from Newell for $300, and that included grinding the burr off.
You would need to jack up the rear, place it on stands, and remove the wheels to get to the troubled area. Best to spend a couple of hundred bucks and have someone else do the repair. If it is the airbag, that will be about $250 for the part. The part is specific to Newel as they have the fitting in a different position, at least for mine. Good luck!
