that truck looks familiar bro. where did you get it? if i were you bro, i would pull the valves off and clean them up. that is really what it sounds like. also check to see if there is a water seperator between the compressors and the tank, if not you should invest in them, they aren't that bad. hit up my boy Dev at www.thebagshack.net also, check to see if there is a drain cock on the bottom of the tank. if so crack it open and see if there is any water in the system. that can cause problems with the valves. hope this helps bro.

Im up in Minnesota.The truck was blue....But i just had it painted.There is no water seperator on the set up and i just drained the tank tonight(alot of water came out).Here are a few pics of the valves...........And i think i might pull the valves apart tomorrow and clean them up. Thanks for the info!!

im not positive who makes them but i know they used to come with alot of chassis techs old setups.The only reason i used them on my old ride was so i could get the car off the ground until i could go pick up some other valves.I had 2 0r 3 sets of them layn around the garage and all of them would do that samething the front of the car would pop right up and the rear would take forever like the solenoid on the valve wasnt getting enough juice to open it so the air would flow through
