Another thing to keep in mind. When it comes to airbag "psi", it can read one psi with an empty fuel tank and read a higher psi with a full fuel tank. PSI is relative to how much weight is being carried,ie, fresh water, fuel tank, black tank. All will be relative. I have an F250 with Firestone airbags and I had a time getting the psi equal from one bag to the other. Raise one psi and the other will read a little lower...Food for thought.

First thought...where exactly are they leaking at?

I had a heck of time getting my air fittings to quit leaking.

Talked to manufactures help line about it. They recommended the soap in spray bottle and look for bubbles type thing.

Turned out my pocket knife didn't do that good of job cutting.

Bought cheap tubing cutter at big box store and made exact 90 degree cuts in tubing and all my air leak problems went away.

When my Ride Rite air would not hold air I checked all the fittings to make sure air lines were fully seat in fitting. Grab hold of the fitting and push air line toward fitting. They should not move more than a 1/16". If they move this will properly seat the air line in fitting.

How old are they? Are they OEM equipment? If not, did you install them yourself or have it done? The warranty should be good.
