It looks like you jacked it up under the differential, that right ??? Man those things sure look different than looking under mine and seeing what's there. I won't need to stab mine tho, hell I am in the garage and I can hear one bag leaking air bigtime!!

Hey Chaotic, I take it that when you had it on the stands you let the diff down to get the air bags out ??? And hell the airline on mine is between the frame and the air bag, can't get my hand in there, and also has a spring clip on it too. did your's ???
