I have Air ride and on board wireless compressor. My kit came with a tee and I used the tee. Nothing to worry about.

Here is the same info again for those who still dont' understand.

All thou it makes it easier to fill with one Schrader there is a drawback to installing air bag this way. If you are only looking to air up the bags to support the load then there will be no problem with this. The union tee does not have a check valve built into it; it will not stop air flow transferring from side to side if the truck starts rocking or while cornering. Because of this if you tee the lines together it will not control sway or rocking side to side.

Are air bags on semi trucks all separated or are they tied together?

I am also gonna install the TEE fitting this weekend.Pretty sure it will be fine after reading a few posts from folks on here who have installed them.Thanks for your input.

Installing the tee will only reflect your lack of understanding how air bags work. It won't bother me a bit. I know how to install air bags and have them installed correctly on my truck. I was simply trying to help you get them installed correctly.

Many people have tried to help you but you seem to me more concerned with insults and arguing than actually installing your air bags correctly. Your last post pretty much says it all.

You may not realize it but you should be embarrassed about how you have acted on this thread.

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.

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

I still don't see why you would not want them isolated? 75% or more have stated that's the proper way to install them for a reason.

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

Thanks chris,I respect your opinion.As stated in my earlier post I only haul heavy about 2-4 times per year on my 20 ft. PJ trailer.One would think that the trailer would handle some of that back and forth load?Maybe I am wrong?I never haul anything heavy in the bed of my truck.Thanks,frank.
