You're welcome....as I play post count ho.....(grin)

pounder, you stuck in another one Hahahahaha. I guess I should use da quote feature.

but they put a gimmie in there, as long as you wont be able to go faster then 10mph then it wouldn't matter where the suspension control is.

what i have setup on my truck for my lift axle is a switch on the inside and one on the outside thatway when and if they ask i show them the outside switch and everything is kosher.

not much spread experience here, only pulled 2-3 but the ones with a dump valve does exactly that, just dumps air. It doesnt pick axle up like construction related lift axles. I would never own a spread without it. They turn hard when turns get tight.
otherhalftw Thanks this. -
i try to be a little more clearer some states dont care where the switch is ga-la-oh and mo dont want the axle controls in cab their ldea is so you cant cheat on axle weights but there are little tricks of the trade to get away with. the one very important one is dont volonteer the fact about inside switches.heck just play dumb when they ask.

Like I said, I've never been asked, but I would think any dieslebear worth his salt would first look to see the extra pigtail, fullwell knowing what its for. If so I'd admit to it, and say it only gets used in slow tight turns which is the truth. I think if you BS a bear and he knows better, odds are greater on getting a ticket. But yeah, I surely would not volunteer anything.

understood.......quick dumps do work well for cheating scales !!
