Time for another Update:
I took the truck into the mechanic on Thursday to get the brakes worked on, as there was a leak in the system somewhere. After taking two days to find out where the leak is coming from, and then telling me "i just cant get that part right now" it was very clear that the guy did not want to work on the truck, and i need to figure this out myself. His shop is clearly just an in-and-out style place that wants quick business, and he doesn't want to spend the time sourcing the part and taking the time to fix it.
So here's where I'm at now, the leak is coming from the load sensing pressure valve under the bed of the truck and needs to be replaced. (Oh it took me 3 minutes to find the part and have it coming in tomorrow by the way) After reading through an older post:
http://www.mightyram50.net/vbulletin...-Valve-Rebuild
I figured out where its at and what to do. HOWEVER, there is talk in that post about when your vehicle is lowered, that the same LSPV will not work properly because of the adjusted ride height. The solution is to adjust the valves position to compensate for the lowered ride, and to get the right amount of fluid delivered to the rear brakes.
I'm looking for any advice as to how to go about doing this, is there a way to adjust that spring that actuates the valve? should i move the valves position entirely with some type of fabricated bracket? or should i even bother and just throw the new LPSV and call it a day.
Thank you guys for any advice you can give.
