Ride Rite Air Bag
I just finished installing Ride Rite air bags on my 2005 F 250 6.0 CC. There is a leak somewhere in the system. I soaped all the fittings and can't find the leak. It loses about ten pounds per hour. Has anyone had a similar problem and if so how did you fix it?

Do you have an automatic controller in the system? Mine has bled down through the controller several times in my shock absorber system which works the same as an air bag system (Rancho). If you pump the bags up and cycle the controller (bleeding it down and refilling several times), the diaghram usually will seal itself in the controller. If you don't have a controller, the FIRST thing I would change or tighten is the valve stems on the air fill hoses. Those little buggers are always forgotten it seems in an air check with soapy water.
