Delicate Fitting.

[ScLeCo]

This POS 90* fitting that connects the air hose to the top of the front air strut is some DELICATE crap.
I accidentally dropped a 3/4 inch socket wrench on it from a height of about 12-16 inches. Loud PSSSHHHHHHHHHH and the front of the damn truck drops 6 inches.

I'm so pissed off right now.
So now I guess I have to take it into the dealer and get a new fitting and get the system recharged.

Anyone know how much that's going to cost? Not that I have a choice.
Anyway BE CAREFUL that POS will break if you look at it funny.

ARRRRAUUUUGHHHHHH! You CANNOT buy just this POS .25cent plastic fitting. NOOOOOOYou have to buy the $326.00 ENTIRE FREAKING AIR LINE.

Ok. My google foo was weak but I have prevailed! For those with Air suspension if you break the front air bag fitting you CAN just buy the fitting and not the entire line from the dealer.

So while installing my JBA headers this past weekend I noticed that the passenger side air fitting is MUCH closer (to the headers) than the driver side. This added heat may be a contributing factor to the plastic being so brittle.
For those with air suspension I recommend adding some kind of additional heat protection. I used left over header wrap.
