    Found one of the big airlines going between 2 air bags leaking. Question I have is, are those hoses anything special? My local kenworth is not open on Saturdays and wondering if I can pick some up at a parts house?

    Air Lines are Air Lines, nothing special about them. Just make sure you use brass fitting to connect them instead of the crappy plastic ones.

    You can go to any Truck Dealer and buy a Air Line, just get one cut a little longer just in case.

    Rubber between the air bags. I have only seen plastic. Rubber line like the ones between my brake cans and the valves. When I change them lines(rubber) I like to get the two piece fittings. One piece goes inside the hose and the second piece like a collar screws around the outside of fitting. They can be used over and over. Just replace hose when damaged. Easier to fix if needed where ever you need too.

    If you use plastic line make sure you also get the ferules and barrels.
