Like I said, most not all, if you've been in this line of work any amount of time at all, you know what I'm talking about,,good looking rig though and I'm not saying these aren't done correctly, just most aren't

There is a fix to keep the front wheels vertical. I've seen it just don't remember where, might have been in one of the diesel truck mags I read.

Where is it seem to be leaking from? Most of the systems I've seen are leaking around the lines/fittings, if thats the case, get a new line kit (they come with the fittings usually) and replace the whole line system,,,,and maybe try a different shop/mechanic, ask around I'm sure someone in your area can reccomend a good one.

Do you just have helper bags, or airbags all around? The best thing to do is air them all up and spray soap or a soapy solution on the lines, then look for bubbles. Sometimes if the airline that presses into the fitting is'nt cut right, it'll let air leak out. To find the leaks though, you'll have to do what I just mentioned. If you can't get the installer to do it, then you should do it yourself.

Rear bags only. I've been watching the gauges and they're holding steady at 15psi. Maybe I was hallucinating lol.
