G'day,
The purpose of this email is to assist GMC owners to obtain tubing, fittings, and valves to use in the rear suspension system.
I would suggest you click on the links and save each of the pdf files below to your hard drive for easy future reference.
TUBING:
Below is a link to Parker 1120 Nylon Air Brake Tubing:
http://www.parker.com/literature/Parflex/B-Parflex%20PDF%20and%20Images/4660-1120.pdf
It is available in black, red, blue, green, orange, yellow, brown, silver, purple, and white.
FITTINGS:
Here is a link to the Parker Compression Style Transportation fittings:
http://www.parker.com/literature/Brass%20Products/Book-H.pdf
The fittings below are designed for the tubing above:
NTA Fittings
Meets D.O.T. FMVSS 571.106
Meets SAE J246 & J1131
Staked in Tube Support
Pre-applied Sealant
Air Brake Fittings are also listed; however, they are designed to be used with copper tubing. You can use them if you use the tube
support that slips into the nylon tubing.
Here is a link to the Parker Push to Connect Transportation fittings:
http://www.parker.com/literature/Brass%20Products/Book-I.pdf
The fittings below are designed for the tubing above:
Prestomatic
Stainless Steel Tube support
Meets D.O.T. FMVSS 571.106
Meets SAE J2494
VALVES:
Parker Mini Ball Valves: http://www.c-global.com/3501_pdf/mv.pdf
I purchased the part to completely rebuild the Power Level suspension system in Double Trouble from:
Florida Motion & Control
5627 Commerce Drive
Orlando, FL 32839
Tel: 800-741-3536
Fax: 407-859-6821
Use the catalogs above to determine the part numbers of the fittings you want then contact them. Please don't call them up and tell
them you need some fittings for your GMC suspension system and expect them to know what you need! THEY DO NOT!
Regards,
Rob M.

Or...If you're basically lazy, Like I am, you can make one quick call to Jim K, tell him what you need, and get the right tubing and D.O.T. approved fittings delivered to your door.
