Does anyone know of a couple of good places to take my Rig for possible air leaks?
Don't think its Air bags, Sometimes its worst than other days.
We are in Whittier Ca now and sometimes in AZ.
i Know there's lots of Threads out there for repairs which I AM REALLY IMPRESSED!

Thank you for all your help and support.

The ride height valve on the down side maybe.

Any resolution on this issue??? I have a similar issue come up in the past couple of weeks while sitting in my storage barn (tight, tight fit). While exercising the engine/generator I raised the chassis height to maximum then noted a few days later that passenger side seemed to have fully lowered while driver side was still raised?

You should check your 6-pack valves for leaks. Soapy water or a leak detector. There should be 6 in a group in the back and 6 in the front. Do you guys have the HWH air leveling? Here is a picture of 6 of mine in the back and a picture of my air leveling control panel.

Yep, HWH with same control panel. Spayed soapy water on my six pack and air bags (that I could access in such a restricted area)did not see anything. Tthx for the suggestions.

I did change the right height valve and did the adjustments, after this it was sitting really nice and perfect! Of course 2-3 days later it was leaning!
Looking for somewhere to do the repairs on this

thanks for all your help

The ride height valves only come into play when driving. When parked the system changes to leveling mode.

I also have a 2007 Knight and bought it new, it will drop down on one rear side after a couple of days. Benn doing it since new and hasn"t changed. When I had it back at the factory when I first bought it to fix the windsheild poping out I asked them about it and they said dont worry about it its normal. I have benn under the rig many times with the soapy water thing and never could find a leak. It does not have a leveling system just a drive hight

IF (large IF) he has air leveling and that system is working properly.

Wow can't believe Monaco said that!
This just started maybe 2 years ago
It's not normal, plus walking inside is a pain leaning like that!
Having someone come out Monday so will see what happens
I'll let you know
Might change Air-bag too since it's 16 years old on one side only for now

I have a 05 Knight and owned since new. I just went thru fittings on both tanks and found 1\4ptc ( push to connect) x 1\4 npt "t" swivels or called branch swivels to the bags and 3\8 and 1\2 ptc's elbow swivels leaking I found DOT rated swivels with pre pipe compound on threads to work well. Cut tie wraps to find excess. air tubes clean with water near leaky fitting and cut with PVC cutter. I cleaned the air tubes before i unscrewed the swivels and you can remove fitting while air tubes still attached. then installed new fitting , then measured to cut tube and PTC, this was my method ( first time)In some cases I may be able to have enough slack in air tubes to do again without splicing in new air line
