2006 Monaco Signature Air Bag Replacement

What is the best method to remove the large air supply hose to Right Front air bags so I can pressure test for leaks. The rear bag has very limited space between it and the basement compartment. The front bag has very limited space between it and the retractable step compartment. There is not enough room to get a wrench on and turn it. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

John if your right air bag is loosing pressure over night I would suspect the air leveling air relay leaking, if it's a HWH system Mike Carter has a good write up and pictures on how to repair the valves.
If you have already checked the air leveling for leaks then why not trace the air line from the air bag back to the first connection and hook up there if you can't remove it from the bag to test.

Ain't that just like Walt? You're about to do something that is going to be difficult and messy. Then the "Mississippi MacGyver" says, "Why don't you try this, instead?" And you smack your forehead wishing you had thought of that.

Walt, how about figuring out how that heater core is going to just "jump out" of my 2000 Dynasty without me breaking a sweat!

I don't know about the Macgyver part but for sure I don't know any short cuts for changing the heater core.
John was you able to test the air bag yet?
