Eng air over builds pressure, air dryer constantly releasing
#12

The 1/4" line that comes out of my filter dryer in the drivers side tag axle had also been damaged prior to all of my problems (see original post). I had backed my coach to the left, up a curb into a driveway making a hard right with the wheels. In doing so, I believe that the steering axle tucks in and gets close to the air filter dryer and rubbed on this line and broke it off.

I also elevate the coach prior to backing, to clear a curb and low hanging items under my coach from making contact.

Doing all of this, the coach must be twisting, wheel is raising, turning, all very close if not past design limits that allow this contact to happen. I would stop and take a picture and share, but I'm holding traffic both directions at this driveway and nobody would be very happy with me, except a few Newell Guru's

I only fixed that line, thinking that would be all that I would have as an issue. My first post here, is the lesson learned from that incident.

I have not repeated this backing in the same way since.
