Thanks for the reply.

All the linkage stuff looks pretty good at first glance. Bypassing all the linkage and moving the valve by hand, it takes a lot of throw before it triggers to raise the car. That's why I'm suspicous of the valve itself. Does anybody know how far the lever on the valve has to move before it starts raising the car? The valve works, just not soon enough. Is that typical for a worn valve?

I had an issue w/ the arm where it connects to the valve. the arm was loose, so sometimes my ass end would raise way up there. I got under and tightened this up, and it is now fine. if you look at it, you will see where I mean.

also- how are the links on each wheel which connect the sway bar to the trailing arm?
