I used Rectorseal 5 which is a soft set thread sealant on the air bag spring fittings and it had an air tight seal before the road trip but it leaked the air out while I was traveling on the road. Gonna try some Rectorseal Tru-Blu thread sealant which is vibration resistant and see if that will keep the air bag spring from leaking air.
