Rear suspension air bags (air lift or firestone) ??

I can see if you have a service van with weight not distributed or say if you have a service truck where maybe one side of the flat bed has a generator welder and another side a fuel tank with varying weights, sure it would be good to be able to level your truck evenly. For the average truck with a gooseneck trailer I think it is pointless to plumb them separate.

Everyone has the right to their own opinion

Not really embarrassed at all.If you read your posts#34, 39 & 47 your are the one who started the first pot shots.I believe since I did not heed your advice not to use the TEE valve you were taken back by that.Never received any negative comments from the folks who thought it was wrong to use the two valves verses one tee.I have a saying(some folks in life try to blow out your candle to make there,s burn brighter)Maybe that's you.Conversation over I am installing the TEE valve.

Pot shots? No idea what you are talking about. Sounds like you were offended and I really don't see why but I guess some people are just more sensitive than others. Good luck with your project and make sure to post pics when you are done and let us know how it works out.

I usually try to limit advising someone of their folly 1 time, after that I let them learn on their own
Saves me a lot of frustration and they actually learn something afterwards

+1, lesson learned on my part.

Nope not offended at all and surely not sensitive.You know what they say about opinions though?

I still say you are making a huge mistake. But it's just a lesson you have to learn on your own I guess.

As they say there is one thing you can't fix.

I've had the Firestone airbags on my F-250 for several years now.
By the way, I installed a TEE and it works just fine thanks.
Its a pickup truck, not a top heavy tri axle dump.

If it matters, the OEM air ride bags for PACCAR (Kenworth and Peterbilt) are Firestone.

We installed AirLift bags on our Honda Odyssey minivan to preserve ride height when loaded.

I installed the two fittings under the fuel filler door. Since then I used a label maker to add Left and Right and the pressure range of 10-65 psi. I also put the unloaded ride height front and rear so I could level the vehicle.

My dad had a car where the bags were filled together with a tee so I didn't make that mistake again.
