Not so much bend or break them but scratches develop on the surface which does not help in creating a proper seal. Running new airlines is quite a bit of work but you can do one at a time and (IIRC 6mm) airline is not that expensive.

Keep it up! you'll get it sorted

Appreciate your advice.

The suspension has held up overnight so that is encouraging. The front is clear of the wheels but not by much so it does need more air in the two front airbags.
I'm not inclined to run new air lines for the reasons you explain but there IS room to trim and reseat them. For that I would use Loctite to helo them seal.

Thanks again - I'll keep at it

This vehicle is my backup for the 91 Hiline that was giving me trouble - now fixed. For that reason, the P38 rarely gets used more than once a month - if that. So no way am I going to spend big money on the EAS. It now works, even though it requires manual operation.

As said before - If it ain't broke, don't fix it
