Adding a second leveling valve

s, replacing the midway crossmember (major one right under the 5th Wheel) made a huge difference, definitely leveled the truck nicely, the old one became defective from the twist, so it was twisted. I haven't test driven the truck because 5th wheel is still off the truck til tomorrow and have no load yet to test it with. My only concern now is the casing on my left steer tire, I'm afraid it might be bad too, so I'm having it removed off the rim and checked. It looks good from the outside, but it might still be twisted internally. Thanks. Will keep you updated.

RSQ20, You know about this, the guys at the shop swear by it, and are highly recommending it. I think I'm gonna go for it, after all' it is a freightshaker. I'm curious about this anyhow. I think im lettin em do it in the morning.

I hear you prom night, i've definately thought about tweaking the bags on the sleeper too, either throw the roadkings next to them or spreading them a little, They really are kinda too close together and to the center. If not, maybe add two.

That's exactly what my boys are tellin me, Tee them together so theycan all dump together, but run each side independently.

I agree, frame is good now after replacing midway crossmember directly under the fifth wheel.

You're right, wanna be even/leveled in every aspect.

Crossmember by 5th wheel was twisted, just replaced it. Leveled good after new cross member.

 

Grape ade, not only did i replace the midway crossmember, but had to get 2 new steers after that because the twist on the frame had worn the driver's side steer oddly. I test drove it and that tire was causing about 30 % of the problem. Now I have none of those issues. However, yes, I did end up having the air split, but have issues adjusting the ride height on the new leveling valve, i was driving today and stopped to check a couple times but had no air on one side until i moved the truck. Then i checked again and wouldnt build air on that side at all for awhile even when i moved the truck. Had to play with the adjustable rod on the new leveling valve to get it to fill. Both sides fill up now, but the ride aint right and i justchecked bags on both side and one has more air/pressure than the other. I was just going to go back toyour second reply i believe it was
so i could remember where to
measure from. I do see the difference w the dual leveling valve difference and it's pretty impressive, but you gotta adjust them just right.Going back back underneath the truck now to balance the air. Don't forget grape ade i repaced theleafs on the side that it leaned on too and got both new leafs for front end.

Had to go back to one leveling valve system, the additional one did not come with a dump on it so it was giving me problems. I think i have another twisted crossmember though.

 

Thanks for the note, we found that the midway crossmember right by the sleeper air ride ( right under the sleeper airbags) is kinked in 3 spots, I'm replacing it in the A.M. as far as the leveling valve goes, I tried explaining that to the clown at the shop. The split air ride system wasnt working for me because bozo added a leveling valve with no dump, so I just went back to the single. It only makes sense what you're saying, kb3, how can it perform properly if its not trigger fast, i mean when a bump on the road throws the truck off it doesnt wait.

 

The split air ride model i do like and will be going back into it to do it right. Will be getting the fastest ones available and matching them equally. My horse deserves it and not for nothing, been having my eyes on those roadkings for a while, especially after delivering to pothole city all the time.
