Air Ride Valve

[Bob (WA0MQE)]

Where can I get a air ride valve for the rear of my roadmaster chassis? I have an eight bag chassis on a '06 Camelot PDQ.

Try this like. I hear these people bought all the parts from Monico in Harrisburg, Oregon

Northwest RV Supply

Those types of chassis parts - air control, brakes, hydraulic, etc.. - are all standard and commonly available parts. Monaco made the Roadmaster rails and outfitted it with already DOT approved components from many other manufacturers.

Take it off and head to a Freightliner parts dealer or any Heavy Duty trucker supply place (including NAPA HD parts places) and match it up - it may even have a number on it that you could try Googling...

Bob, can you tell me what your need is for replacing air-ride valve? I also have a '06 Monaco Diplomat PDQ and when the bags are fully inflated the coach leans to the curbside by about 1" to 1 1/2" as compared to the drivers side. Contacted Monaco and they said it could be a pinched bag and to go through the process of inflating and deflating the bags a number of times. Have tried their suggestion but with no avail. Was your coach not airing up on one side after bags are inflated also? As for a place to purchase a new valve I suggest a Roadmaster dealer also.
Thanks, Dean

I agree. When we had our air valves changed in California, we took the brand and part # off one of the old valves, googled it, found the supplier and ordered them in. Took a few days to get the valves.

Most Monaco coaches use Haldex valves. Our coach uses Hadley valves.

Dean it sounds like you need to reset your ride height, be sure to do this on a level area, I will past a couple doc's that gives you the ride height for the 06 Dip (Front one valve@ 8 13/16 rear two valves@ 9 1/16) and a picture of the ride height valve.
