    You should have 2 airbags under the back of the sleeper, had to replace mine. On the transmission the 5/32 airlines from the shifter go into push to connect fittings which wear out and leak intermittently. Change to ones with nut and ferrule so you can tighten with a wrench. They're hard to get at, especially the red line. I recommend having refreshment available.
