personally I would run the 1 1/2 inch on one port as a lift...and the other two on the other port one as a lift and one as a dump. That way you can adjust your lift speed and still have a reasonable dump. the real question is what are you gonna do with it.

1/2 up and 3/8 down works fine.

If you plan on hopping it as high as you can, do what Aaron said...

if you don't want fast bags, just run one 3/8" up and one 3/8 down... if you're doing it on the front, you've got the weight of the cab/engine which tends to make the front drop pretty quick with a 3/8 valve and TOO quick with a 1/2 valve if you wanna be able to drop it a certain amount without fumblin around with your switches every time. The only reason to use dual port bags is if you want dual up ports. I can't think of any reason to use two dump valves on one bag.

I usually do 1/2" up and 3/8" dump on the front of a rig if I've got both size valves to work with.

i believe what aaron is saying is to run 1 of the lines as a dedicated lift line and run the other line as a lift/drop 2 valves setup like you would normally see on one piece of paper. there is no need for diagrams just make your self a mental picture
