3 position valves, specs and pros & cons

Can anyone give the specs and part #'s for 3 position valves plse. Any input from anyone who has used them would be appreciated. I'm not wanting to make it hop, just go up and down.

No its ok you are right I only had one of there kits on my my own car (Daily driver 85,000 miles) for over 5 years and never had a single problem beside a couple of blown airlines and a burnt out pressure switch. Ive probally put there kits on 15 to 20 cars with only one having problems.

do a Better Business Bureau check on AIM Industries and see what other's have to say about this company.

Glad you had good luck with them and their products. Most other folks haven't been so lucky.

Re: 3 position valves, specs and pros & cons

I have those AIM three way valves and am not exactly satisfied. They're being ripped out this winter for proper valves.

Go with some SMCs or Parkers. You can get a set of 8 SMC 3/8" valves from ***************** for $220.

I prefer the smc valves as well but the original poster is looking for 3 position valves.

Re: 3 position valves, specs and pros & cons

She's an awesome looking ride kid54. I was just being lazy, I think I will stick to 2 position valves, the $300 quote (per valve) from asco NZ was just a LITTLE bit off putting lol. Does anyone have any partner model numbers for smc or parker that I could use?. Thanks again

Re: 3 position valves, specs and pros & cons

I have some MAC valves that I used the first time I bagged my truck. They are 3 position valves and worked great! I dont remember how they worked but I know the fill valve has a plug in it. I think they were for air brakes on trucks... I have 4 of them...
