air ride height control valve in down position but airbags are aired up
#12

That’s a tough job. When you get in there you will see that Newell used 1 inch air lines to plumb the bags to ping tanks welded into the frame. Those one inch air lines are usually connected to a 45 degree fitting in the top of the air bag. Impossible to get the bag out without removing the fitting. It’s really tight place to get a wrench on that fitting. Take a sawzall and cut the fitting off flush with the top of the plate on top of the bag.

Now we have a fork in the road. If you got air bags with the old school 1 inch inlet, you can simply buy new 45 degree fittings and put it back as found. BUT……….it is likely you received bags with a much smaller inlet. Don’t even think about trying to adapt the existing one inch hose to the air bag. The simplest thing to do is run a NEW air line to the bags from the six pack, you will also need to tee into that line and feed the tag bag. This bypasses all the ping tanks in the frame. If this doesn’t compute, shout out and I will cobble a pneumatic schematic for you.
