Mounting the RidePro Air Valves

The valves, like the compressor, are sealed and can be mounted in the same locations.

Although if the vehicle will be exposed to freezing temperatures it is a good idea to mount
them in the engine bay if possible to reduce the possibility of freezing.

They can be mounted in any position.

Mount the valves higher than the tank to avoid moisture build up. This could cause the air

pressure sensors to give a faulty reading.

Attach the ground strap to a good, clean ground (preferably the frame).

The exhaust port will be left open.

The valve is held closed with the pressure in the tank. If tank pressure drops below air

spring pressure they will equalize deflating all 4 air springs.


Wiring Harness

The red wire on the harness will connect to 12 v.

The gray wire will then supply the gauge light 12v. Or the gauge light can be powered with

illumination.

Routing the Airline and Fittings

Make all airline cuts with a razor or tubing cutter. It must be clean and straight or it will not

seal.

All fittings are DOT approved push-to-connect style. They are very simple to use and are

reusable. Firmly push the airline into the fitting to attach. To release the airline pull the
collar on the fitting back towards the fitting and pull the airline out.

Use thread sealant on all fittings.

Do not over tighten the fittings. This could result in breaking the fitting or damaging the air

spring.

All of our airlines are DOT approved so they are very strong. But keep them away from

any sharp edges. Also when passing through a hole in the frame use a grommet.

Keep away from intense heat including mufflers and exhaust manifolds.

Use zip ties or other fasteners to secure the airline.
