Got my MC7 up and running after several months on blocks, and the right front suspention air failed to inflate. I know there are 2 tanks under the front suspension, and I have not bled them or any other part of the air system. Is it merely a case of "Get the water out"?.............Or is it a more serious problem. By the way, no air leaks were detected.......

Thanks for your input,

SLO,

If the leveling is the same on a '7 as it is on an '8 and '9, then a single leveling valve controls both front bags. If the left side is coming up then your problem is between the leveling valve tee to the right side. Each airbeam inlet has a filter on it. Yours may be plugged, or frozen (is it cold there?).

The two tanks in front are the parking air and the wet air tanks. Your suspension fills from the accessory tank located under the driver in tool box area.

Again, this is asumming that the auto leveling system is the same as on the 8's and 9's.
