I wrote the check for this one! Watching was worth the price of the job. Had it done at ETLC by Jeff's pint sized mechanic, Dan. It was tough, but done without moving the tank. Of course, the coach was on a lift which I am sure helped a lot.
My check valves still had the model number clearly visible - Bendix 227871.
One of the new ones still has a very small leak and after hours I can see it. But I don't think this compromises safety in the least and I am just going to live with it. They are there just to keep the air for the brakes should you have a huge leak develop in the aux systems. With only a very small leak I would have plenty of time and air to get stopped and make a plan. I don't recall what Jeff charged as it was just blended in with some other work.
