Bagged trucks
just curious, I have built a bagged truck and my son had a bagged truck, How many of you guys with bagged trucks have problems daily or weekly with leaky valves or lines or what ever. It seems that it was a constant battle with any of the ones i have delt with.

Re: Bagged trucks
I built a bagged s10 and drove it for probably 7 years. Everything was good, no leaks, except the driver side front. I always had a leak. Crazy thing about it was it had lines replaced twice and 2 sets of valves on it. 3/8 then 1/2. Close to the end of me owning it I rebuilt that valve and it did slow the leak. I dunno if it had something to do with heat from motor or what, but it always leaked

Re: Bagged trucks
I bagged the rear of my truck 7-8 years ago, and I only have to air it up after an extended layup (winter), even then it's only lost a few psig. I used the push-in fittings and have yet to have a problem. Pump, lines, fittings all from Air-Ride.
