air ride suspension

has anyone ever used fix-a-flat to seal an airline leak for air ride suspension?
  • Thanks to all for the advisei am sure the leak is at the inflated valve and the plastic hose
  • Totally agree. You will clog any number of valves, including minor thing like your SUSPENSION and BRAKES!
  • Drew, welcome to the forum.
    As others have stated, DO NOT use a stop leak to try to seal an air suspension leak. There are many valves in the system that must open and close for the suspension to operate correctly. If you are inexperienced with repairing air systems, take it to a truck repair shop. An air leak in the suspension system can affect the braking system.
  • Don't even think about it! You will gunk up everything in the system and repairs will cost lots more than fixing an airline leak.
