Hey bro great video, I have a question on my 2016 Freightliner cascadia my truck going up and down on its own when i stop , what could be a problem, but mine valve is not same as your in video ,
most likely is going to be the leveling valve, yes this truck doesn't have the option to lower the suspension and I'm assuming your truck has a switch in the cab to lower the suspension that's why it looks different it has an extra air line
Thank you, im not sure what the exact height should, check out this other video we did on other channel it might help you too ua-cam.com/video/igmMT5RqGx4/v-deo.html
Primo grasias x el video segi los pasos y todo vien. Nomas q mire q tienen mucho aire. Como ajusto la varilla. Aber si nos esplicas en el sigiente video
voy hacer un video pronto, en los 2 tornillos que detienen la valvula, aflojelos poquito y ay tiene espasio para q mueva la valvula para arriva y abajo dejeme saver si le sirvio
My leveling valve was replaced but seems to leak air from bottom part to let air out everytime I am parked is when I notice it. I dont know if I need to raise or lower or just leave it alone I do not feel any shaking or anything like that going down the road. Where can I find the right height to adjust to, if it needed?
the valve was not lifting the air bags to there hight level, but after doing this video i find out it was that the link was too short, i extended the link and it seems like that was the problem, i will make a video soon
If airbags are riding low, or the truck is getting vibrations you can just adjust the valve, if the valve is leaking air go ahead and replace it, thanks for watching sir 🙏
Technically you don’t “need “ to but given the weight it’s strongly recommended as you really can’t be too safe. You can be too safe 1 million times but it only takes 1 time of not being safe enough 😉
@@TRUCKINGTIPSDIY It only take one spring brake to hold that truck. If the brakes were not properly adjusted. You would not be worried about the suspension.
Thank you very much for the great info. I would ad something else. The right level of the valve will determine the high of the airbags and they will affect the alignment of the driveshaft. And when there is a bad alignment of the drive shaft you will have vibrations. It was my case, the mechanics were recommending a bunch of expensive things. After I watched so many videos I came across to this video ... ua-cam.com/video/RTDayns43Lk/v-deo.html and that saved my life. Free and you only invest no more than 20 minutes and the vibration will go away.
Hi quick question to averyone ,every time I drop off my trailer my air bags raised up then that leveling valve stick goes down and air starts leaking from it then about 3,4 min it just adjust itself then I’m able to roll otherwise the tires spin it don’t let me to roll since the level is not back to normal I did change the leveling valve still the same after every drop off trailer pls let me know if anyone had this type of problem thanks And may God bless you !
@@TRUCKINGTIPSDIY unfortunately i don’t have that switch on truck but never had this issue before I’m really confused about it something definitely wrong but thanks any way Brother!

How do you know when you’re leveling valve is bad
10+4. Voi a tratar. Cual sera el nivel q debe kedar de altura. Aber si mepasas el dato
Good video man....do you know the freightliner recommended ride height and do I have to adjust height after putting new one on thnx
Thank you, im not sure what the exact height should, check out this other video we did on other channel it might help you too

I think it's normal when you park , it should level by itself, then stop leaking air
Great video, I have a 2013 cascadia 125 and mine keeps leaking air, also if you could provide the part number please
Part numbers are at the beginning of the video my man. Freightliner # is 16-14494-02 and aftermarket is # 32005-3
@@supermariobronsmiranda6735 that’s for the linkage. What about the valve?
Most of the time when I unhook from the trailer I hear air leaking through the leveling valve after a minute or so it stops leaking. Is that Normal?
Yes
What issues did you have with leveling valve??
the valve was not lifting the air bags to there hight level, but after doing this video i find out it was that the link was too short, i extended the link and it seems like that was the problem, i will make a video soon
How do you know where there at the right height?
Question when should I know or we know that’s need to be adjusted or replaced What the signs of it thank you

@@TRUCKINGTIPSDIY thank you 🙏 bro keep good works
My valve is leaking from the rubber square, is it time to replace the whole vavle?
Hello, yes I would just replace it, its not too expensive
@@TRUCKINGTIPSDIY thanks for the quick reply!
@@josenava4639 same the little rubber square is leaking i was able to drive 170 miles with the air leak it was a bumpy ride back lol
Why did you replace it in the first place?
00:38 if you drained all the air out of the tanks. Why do you need to block your tires?
For safety, if brakes are not properly adjusted the truck my start to run, thanks for watching sir 🙏

@@asteelelol Parking brakes are control by springs. When he dumped the air. They came on even if he forgot to turn them on.
Trade it in for a W900

Have any one here experience that your air suspension shuts by itself while you are driving?
I’m experiencing this right now.

That's normal, if your truck has the lower suspension switch you can deflate the air bags
@@TRUCKINGTIPSDIY unfortunately i don’t have that switch on truck but never had this issue before I’m really confused about it something definitely wrong but thanks any way Brother!
