Any Carquest, Napa or possibly CTC should have them in brass.
If you can't get one, I'll bring one up to the Cap in Sept when I attend a family wedding there lol!

Man, where did I get mine???

I think it's a Fariview or Weatherhead part if I am right. Do you have a NAPA close by?

Any place that carries air fittings for transport trucks will likely have brass fittings. They use brass quite often in HD applications.

Maybe this page has what you need   http://www.fairviewfittings.com/product.html?id=1687

Check an AK-16 Monroe kit.

When I fixed my Fleetwood air ride, I think that is the kit I used. Seems to me it was about 10 bucks.

Well, I checked my kit and it's gone. I either lost it or tossed it because I know I didn't use it.

Sorry.

I think Monroe offers that one though.

I am curious why you would not plumb both shocks separately rather than use a tee?

Is it just to keep both sides of the car equal height?

Would there not be a huge disadvantage to the shocks being linked together when cornering? There would be excess pressure applied on the shock that is on the outside when cornering and all the air transfers to the inside shock which would create some awful body roll...

Is this how air shocks linked together work? I've never used them this way. Have only used them isolated with their own air valves?

The T fitting work good to keep equal air in the shocks .
