aux air compressor for air leveling

[Tenor]

There have been several threads on this but my question is different.  Is there a location on an MCI 7 to add a line to an aux air compressor that would fill JUST the air suspension?  I'd like to be able to do that as I consider a manual leveling system.  Thanks!

As plumbed, the suspension is supplied off the auxiliary tank, which by design, will bleed back to the rest of the system, if the rest of the system is at a lower pressure.

However, IMO, one may make modifications to isolate the suspension in order to accomplish the busnut goal of campground leveling with a minimum of aux compressor run time. If one is concerned about available volume of air under some failure condition in which the auxiliary tank does back up the system, an additional tank may be added to the rest of the system's capacity in order to equal or better the OEM capacities.

I might be inspired to add that tank plumbed via a single large line to either the wet or service tanks.

YMMV, and who am I to be taking advice from, and all that lawyering stuff....

happy coaching!

I know you've gotten rid of most of your air leaks and what I would use is a compressor for air suspensions that they use on custom cars and trucks. They can go up to 150 #'s and around the same price as a regular compressor. Here is a link http://www.viaircorp.com/compressors.html only drawback is their 12v.
