Best Answer

There's a small hole in the leveling valve arm. Loose the nuts for the leveling valve mount, take a Golf tee, stick it in that hole. There's a matching hole on the leveling valve itself... when that tee lines up with that hole, you've got it calibrated. Leave the golf tee in place and secure the leveling valve.

How do you adjust the air ride suspension on a 1995 FLD?

There's a suspension valve towards the rear of the frame... there's a little room to tilt it so that you can raise or lower the air suspension. Just loosen the nuts on the back of it, tilt it, tighten it down when it's where you want it to be.


How do you adjust level on air ride suspension on steering axle on peterbilt?

There are two bolts holding the leveling valve in place, with the one on the bottom being more oval shaped...rotate the leveling valve counterclockwise to raise it, and clockwise to lower it. To calibrate it, you'll notice a small hole in the leveling valve arm, behind the hole for the bolt. You take a golf tee, stick it in there, and adjust it until it lines up with the matching hole in the leveling valve itself.

What is low air suspension on a peterbilt semi?

Low air suspension refers to the fifth wheel height from the ground. The suspension system (low air leaf) is a suspension system with a lower ride height and is used by many transportation companies because it allows their truck to hook up to a variety of trailers. In modern days, low air leaf has been replaced with Flex Air suspension (low air leaf is still available). Flex air has the same ride height but weighs several hundred pounds less, thus allowing the truck to haul more weight in the trailer.
