Well, a week or so ago, my compressor started sounding, well, sounding like it was on it's way out.
"Check air suspension" light came on intermittently.

I ordered the new one from rock and it will be here tuesday.

Until then, is there a way to take out some squat with a shop compressor?

Only if you are willing to add a valve to the system.
Thanks stamp. I waited for the compressor. The old cylinder/piston was seized.

It's at 108,000 miles. So, I imagine this is the first stage of gradually replacing pricey components. I just love it too much for towing or transporting heavy cargo.

mine went at 14; same thing but snapped the piston rod. Replaced my rear bags while I was at it too.
