Mike,
Thank you for the information and the link to the Mumert site. I had not seen the photo of the twin air compressors before.

I did find (remember) the Junk Yard Gems on the western states site

http://gmcws.org/Tech/junkyardgems/index.htm

it shows the Seville pump as a direct replacement (without alteration) for the GMC later level system.

My Dana works fine -- so maybe I will look for some other use for this pump.

The shown air pump is SLIGHTLY lighter built than the pumps in my '78 with Electro-Level II system. (The ELII has TWO pumps... one for each airbag and NO air tank.) The Power Level in my '73 pump is "larger" than the ELII pumps. The shown pump and the ELII pumps have an internal vent (or "lower") valve that simplifies their use in suspension systems.

I have two of the same pumps as your picture. The plan WAS to replace my Power Level system with some thing LIKE the ELII. For the same project, I picked up the height sensors from the same donor cars but I used these sensors to repair my ELII system on my '78.

To have an idea of what I had planned for the '73 see: <http://www.mumert.com/el2000.htm>

A trip to the local PullaPart netted a few items. I thought I remembered there was a use for the air compressor for the suspension system from a Cadillac Seville -- is this the same used on the last GMC power level system? Any use on my 73 coach?
