hey, im trying to put electric valves on my truck instead of my manual ones... i bout 3/8 valves and 3/8 air line... and i still need to buy 3/8 fittings.. people told me to run 2 cross's and two t's to do a 4 valve set up...

on my set up now i have male fittings on my truck right now... but suicidedoors.com and fm kustoms and my local fitting store only have female ??

the question would be how and what do i need to buy to make female fittings work on air line and bags ??

heres the six valve setup, i am not sure what the crosses would be needed for unless your runnin gauges. when you say female fittings do you mean like the ptc fittings?

I'm not quite understanding what you are asking.

I can tell you that I much prefer to build a small manifold with brass fittins to cut down on the number of push fittings needed. I also use check valves for insurance, they don't always work, but they make me feel better.

i got the diagram for a 4 valve set up... im only running front and back ...

so basically im asking a stupid ass question .. how do i get the hose to stay in the fitting... and yes i do have one gauge thats double needle one needle for the front bags and one for the back ... all i need to know is how to run the hose and make it stay on a female fitting ( cross and T ) basically

Run a push to connect (PTC) or a compression fitting. They come with male and female ends.
