I had problems with my truck leaking real bad. I could leave 150 psi in my front bags and come back 3 hours later and it would be on the ground. I tried replacing fittings, that didnt work so then I replaced all the airline going from the front bags to the front valves and while that helped some it still leaked bad,but only from the driver side front so that narrowed it down some so next I checked out my valves. I plugged the air release valves overnight and the next day my truck was still sitting up so I knew my driver side front valve was the culprit. I pulled it off and opened it up,cleaned it, still same problem. The valve was stuck open,so I bought another,oh yea theyre GC 450s if that makes a difference. So I bought another one and installed it the next day didnt leak or nothing. Finally 2 days later when i finally had some free time I drove it for a few minutes and noticed something was weird, everytime i went to drop it my driver side bag seemed to hold more pressure then the passenger side,in other words my truck was leaning hard to the passenger side and if i let all the air out the passenger side hits the ground way before the driver side does. I figured maybe it was because this was a new valve maybe it had to have time to settle in(i dunno if thats true or not i was just trying to reason with myself) but after almost 2 weeks it still does the same and the only time it soits level is twhen theyre fully inflated, soon as I go to drop it the right side drops and the left side kinda lags. Another thing i noticed is when i leave it sitting for any long period of time my driver side seems to raise on its own,dunno if this is anything related to my other problem or what,but thats kind of weird because I cant seem to remember it doing this before so I think its got to have something to do with it,maybe theres constantly air pressure going into my driver side bag keeping it from dropping as fast as my other side,maybe the valve that releases air into my bag is stuck open,I really have no clue. Does this problem sound familiar to anyone?
