Depending on your Truck, or location of the bag, you may need a T or an elbow. Do yourself and get new compression fittings with it. Or at least new ferrules for the plastic lines. Should be able to cut the ends off, start fresh. New fittings, ferrules make the job much easier. Dealer sells the proper fittings. Their long on one side, especially made for air bags.

Went to buy a air-dryer cartridge from Peterbilt...
TRP was $47 Bendix $113...
I asked parts guy what gives?
He tells me we have had 3 or 4 trucks in the shop here that have had the TRP cartridge explode causing all those little balls to go into the system... So you wanna know what the final cost was on top of that $47?
LOL, Hell NO!!!
I'll gladly take the $113 Bendix!!!Rideandrepair, 650cat425, Goodysnap and 1 other person Thank this. -
