The air dryer is a system saver 1200 plus series air dryer with multi-circuit protection. So, it depends on the model and serial number of the unit, there are four kits (inexpensive) that include all the parts needed. The cost should be around $50 but you need the right kit.
It is important you take it apart carefully, there is a spring in there and reassemble it like it came out. You have to use Oring lube, not grease, I had several kits that did not have it in the package so we used Parker Super Oring lube - $20 per tube, you just need a little bit so save it for next time.Rideandrepair, Big Road Skateboard and ColumbiaBoB Thank this.
