Dual leveling valves is a pretty common setup for off-road applications out here. Seems like they are a lot more stable.

Call a different dealer, we just got the complete build sheet for my uncles 1976 when we were ordering parts for it (after the parts guys stopped laughing at us for still having a 1976 in the yard)
and they had the parts in stockBoxCarKidd, Tug Toy and Speed_Drums Thank this. -

I chopped my walking beam suspension up and tossed it in the scrap bin lol. Freightliner air ride is the best for highway IMO. Cheap, simple and light. If I was getting a truck for logging, lowbed or gravel, Neway air ride 250%.

She was here at my building when I bought the place. Lived here all her life. The mack dealer here that sold her told me that the old boy the owned my place bought her and two exactly like her brand new in 1986, kept them in the garage and never even put a tag on any of them until 1991.
She's got a Camelback suspension,and with a slight fuel recalibration she'll kick any 350 Cummins ###Vampire and Brettj3876 Thank this. -
By the way, my LTL 9000 Ford has it Hendrickson under it.
I do have one new way air ride setup but it's under my trail King TK 70 sliding axle trailer. -
I have had similar problems with other brand trucks and found dealers that helped.
First was a Ford: Long Lewis in Alabama.
Second was an IHC: Carolina IHC in Columbia. -
actually a family friend has a 66 361 brockway in the barn with under 100k on it, 220 and a 5/4 been pestering him to sell it for a few years but he won’t.
would love to find a Ford dealer, we just rerailed my uncles 97 LTL and finding parts for them is less then easy, even though I love the truck itself, pretty sure they also had the Hendrickson set up so basically empty you were only really riding around on the rear axle for ride quality, there’s a parts one in the yard on nuway that may or may not get rebuilt after the 97 is done, -
