hey guys, im just wondering if its ok to use the manual ball valves to slow my suspension down while raising? i have them on right now and it seems to be working fine. but im looking for some of your opinions on this. is it safe? will it work well enough to be used on a daily driver in the summer?

thanks ahead of time

Yea, I use them all the time.. did find out that one kind I bought from Lowes at first, leaks when open (through a small ring around the brass part itself) so now I just buy the mini-ball valves that look better anyway..
