anyone have a clue how to remove the air line from the rear susp compressor??? Book says compression connector, I don't see any compression fitting?? I have pulled semi gently, not coming loose. Quick replies appreciated since I'm out here now replacing the critter.

There's a little red/orange ring that is the connector to the compressor. Push that in gently and pull out the hose.

The line goes in to the compression fitting.

1) Press the plastic collar in towards the pump.

2) Gently push the line IN while gently wiggling/turning and then pull out.

3) If the line does not pull out do NOT force/pull harder as this will make the fitting tighten on the line more. Repeat 1 & 2 over until the line frees up & pulls out.

There is an o-ring that seals the fitting to the line and the internal clamp keeps the line from coming out of the fitting until the release is depressed.
