Airmatic Too Low?

I know I'm leaking air, but I thought the rear looked low, too.

You be the judge.

leaking air from anywhere can cause all bags to deflate.

its really not. I had a leaking rear bag so I changed both of them. On the way home one of the air lines fell out (didn't push it in far enough) and the car basically dropped to the ground.

Yup been there. good thing for me it was at my house.

Anyways. Most likely is the air springs that leaks. I got Arnott ones. Not extremely difficult to change yourself.
