air suspension: Did anyone renovate the 'valve unit' ? I need some advise

I have started taking the valve unit apart. This is the control unit for the 3 leveling valves. The 3 small control valves came out. Is there anything to take apart at the 3 little valves (control valves). Where can I get the rectangular rubber rings for these or do you need round o-rings? I lost 2 of the sphere heads for the control valves. Can I get these somewhere?
Is there a source for the big rubber seal in the pressure reducing valve?

I know air suspension is a difficult item and still, maybe there is someone on the forum who could help me out?

I don't know why, but it seems that most people here don't go THAT far into the air suspension systems. I have two spare control valve units but have not wanted to risk permanently damaging one by taking it apart. If you want one for parts, PM me and we can work something out.

Best Regards,

David

David, why do you think you permanently damage them? Compared to the leveling valves the valve unit is a piece of cake.
