Re: Air ride question

1)Any good compressor will have a check valve in the feeder line off the head so probably not

2) I know Dakota digital guage (and a lot of others) use VDO sending units. Dakota offers two ranges and you need the senders that go with your guage. Also they're resistance based so if you have a short it may go wonky, Also it is possible to have different pressures at each bag and still be level. Say if I put my fat butt and some cargo all on the driver side it will take more pressure in the drivers side bags to level it out.

3) my personal preference is to set the frame on some 2x4 or 4x4 blocks and deflate the system then chain her down tight. Keeps the frame off the deck, the suspension off the snubbers and no worries about air leaking out and chains coming loose.
