I just built ramps two days ago to work on ride levelers. I used 2x10. 5 levels. 5’ 4’ 3’ 2’ 1’. Worked awesome but I don’t know about the tag sorry I don’t have one. $90 to make 4 Ramps n they cut the sizes.

thank you
I called and that is the same number. Need to reduce the 3/8 to 1/4, do you recall doing that?
I’m thinking of ordering 1 or 2 extra in case, not sure how long they last.

Check this site out. Your's looks like mine. My owners manual shows how to adjust them, except the ones shown in the manual are a different design. So I had to just experiment a bit.
thank you

No problem thnx. I’ll call source engineering tomorrow.

I will go out and look right now. it appeared to be three lines but perhaps one is the exhaust. I shall return shortly

Been a few days n started leaning to r f again. Sprayed everything no leak. Contacted Jim at source engineering, he said it was probably the r rear ride height adjuster valve. I sprayed it n one of the three fittings was leaking pretty good, he was right, they were closed when I called back to see if he had one; I left him a message.
Anyone know where to get these? I looked up some older threads but the links wouldn’t pop open.
Anyone know if you replace the entire valve or is the fitting where the hose goes into replaceable? I’d rather replace the entire valve.
Gracias Hombre’s.

There is only 3 steps , 1. clean the lenses
2. sand with two different wet grits
3. Apply final clear coat

Thank you for the responses guys, I am gonna go out this morning and see what it looks like and I’ll post it.
if I can I’ll eliminate the AFO system by getting rid of the Tee fitting n put in a straight fitting like suggested by Ivan.
so I went out to check this morning, no lean. And I realize the front slide out was open about 10” I closed it n both side fronts measure the same
I only lost 3lbs of air last night, but 23lbs from its fullest
so today I will make sure I can replace the fitting n eliminate the AFO
thank you everyone for your input

Why would brakes drag. I know nothing about the system Im thinking of replacing the exact fitting leaving the option for the toad brakes. If not I can do like Ivan suggested n get a straight fitting .
is there an issue with this system? Should I stick with the brake buddy, haven’t used it in the new toad yet. Hate cause it damage. Reliable or no?

If you don't have a 'fitting shop' near you, you can get DOT rated compression fittings on Amazon or elsewhere since it appears to be a brake line. Easier to find if you are eliminating the small line and looking for a straight coupler.
Thanks. We have a few truck parts places up here.

BTW, You may have a leaky valve. Until you. Identify what ain’t needed…a guess

Maybe an anomaly, not with my luck. Still need to fix the leaks, looks simple enough. I am wondering if they sell compression fitting instead of the push on. Much prefer compression.
Just now, Ivan K said:The rod and valve in your pic is part of ride hight system and if that valve was leaking, it would be dropping both front corners.
Gotch ya thanks.

I could do without the top but it was pretty nice being able to sit up under there
