How cool! Thanks for the tire lift info. Never knew anything like that existed. What a pain with this air shock stuff, but I was finally able to get the valve stem out of the valve block by using some WD40 on the thread area over night and then trying double nut on the top of the valve stem again. Here are some photos of the valve stem & plunger assembly. They tell me that the rubber part of the plunger should be flat and not irregular surface like mine shows. So maybe mine was sticking due to that. While I wait for that part with plunger & spring to arrive I am thinking of running the cars air compressor in an attempt to blow out any debris that may be in the line or in the block going to that valve area. If I do that, air should just blow out this open area of the block noted in red right?
