Does this photo tell you what I'm up to?

Today and tomorrow I'm dedicated to making this happen in a parking lot:

A tag axle dump or a kneeling system ?

Looks like your installing a leveling system with your air bags.

Don't expect much from it.

Left hand and right hand oil spraying nozzles to ward off obnoxious drivers!  Am I right or what?  Jack

a groovy leveling system.

Air leveling system. I have half of it installed already. My main concern is using 1/4" lines for this. I'm guessing the inflate/|deflate rate will slow. Craig, why? Not enough travel?

The one on our 4104 had 1/4" lines. It is somewhat slow if you are exhausting all the air from one of the chamber's, although the push-pull valves may have restricted the air flow.

How exactly am I supposed to measure ride height, is it from the ground to the bottom edge of the luggage bag? I have looked at the manual but I guess I'm still I'm sure I've seen different reports of different ways of measuring ride height

The manual ones I have seen don't seem to have much travel unless you by pass the leveling valves.I forgot who but I think it was Sean that used the liner actuators attached to his leveling valves.I have a HWH system to install on mine lol I may need to add a couple more friggn computers to make it work though.Just about all buses use 14 inches for clearance from the luggage bays

Thank you cliff. Ok, that's what I measured it out to but wanted to be sure. I have completely bypassed the levelers. I have run 1/4" dot air line from dash to rear bags through a manual air paddle switch. I haven't tested everything yet. Still picking up bits and pieces today to complete the install before it rains. I have leveling blocks that I use for extreme leveling issues but for parking lot leveling, this system should help a lot. Sometimes it might just be nice to dump the air out of the bags just so I can level the coach with blocks and not wonder how it will "sit" by the next day. I have been having to do that up until now: park coach. Level on blocks. Next day it's leaning, start it up, relevel based on estimated lean. Next day leans a little too much the other way once bags have drained, start up and fine tune level. I'm over that system. So if nothing else, having the ability
To dump air all the way around from the dash will be nice.

You are going to need a small auxiliary compressor tied to system or it will still lean,my drawings show installing the small BlueDot DC compressor

My leveling system had a highway/ manual selector so you just bypassed the leveling valves when you wanted to adjust when camping.

The newer M/H with air suspension really have some high tech air leveling systems like the HWH and Power Gear it is way over my head

Curious why most self crafted leveling systems I see on the boards choose to run multiple lenghly lines of pneumatic instead of low volt electric to switch operated solenoids at the control points very close to what's being controlled.
What an I missing here?
