Our leveling valve is an OEM replacement for Barksdale and Freightliner parts, ensuring reliable performance in heavy-duty vehicles. This trailer leveler valve comes with 1/4″ Push-to-connect ports and a lever arm of 6-1/4″. It regulates vehicle height through air suspension systems and provides stability during operation. The other important details of our leveling valve are as mentioned below:

  • Application: This leveling valve controls the air pressure in a vehicle’s air suspension system, and maintains the correct ride height for optimal performance. The dump feature adds more control, especially for vehicles that need rapid height adjustment or pressure release. This part is particularly useful in maintaining proper vehicle leveling and ensuring a stable and controlled ride. It provides enhanced suspension management due to its dumping capabilities.
  • Dump Feature: The integrated dump feature allows for rapid release of air pressure. It facilitates quick suspension adjustments. This is particularly useful during loading and unloading, or in situations where vehicle height needs to be lowered swiftly.
  • Push-to-Connect Ports: The 1/4″ PTC fittings ensure quick, tool-free installation, saving time and reducing the chances of air leaks. This feature enhances the efficiency and durability of the valve by ensuring secure and reliable connections.
