Accuair E level and Ride Tech Big Red valve ?

I currently have air ride technologies E2 system with the big red valve reduced to run 1/4" lines. I am looking at buying the Accuair E level system. I cant drive this truck another season having to break out the tape measure every time I want to get on the hwy for a long drive and set the ride height bang on.

There a harness available to allow the big red valve to plug and play with the accu air system. Is that a good Idea ? or is there a advantage to using the VU4 valve ?

Re: Accuair E level and Ride Tech Big Red valve ?

From Accuairs FAQ's:

The benefit to using the AccuAir VU4 Valves with the e-Level system is the ease of wiring because the harness is plug’n’play for this case. If you are using other manufacturer’s valves, you will have to make sure to connect the solenoid drive wires from the e-Level in the correct orientation to your valves. (We do offer adapter harnesses for some other manufacturer’s valves, but in all cases our harnesses are color coded for easy hookup.

Contact Accuair.

Or add their e-level system to your big red valves,...

Q: Will the e-Level System work with other manufacturer’s solenoid valves?
A: Yes, our system will work with any 12-volt solenoid valves on the market. The benefit to using the AccuAir VU4 Valves with the e-Level system is the ease of wiring because the harness is plug’n’play for this case. If you are using other manufacturer’s valves, you will have to make sure to connect the solenoid drive wires from the e-Level in the correct orientation to your valves.

Thanks ! I guess will just use my valve block. I like the design of the VU4 but its mounted inside the rear 1/4 of my suburban and will never see it anyways..

I love the post minutes apart ! I didn't think to look at there FAQ's
