I have a 1958 Coupe with air lift and all three level sensors are leaking where the arm attaches to the shaft.Anyone know if these sensors can be rebuilt or will I have to replace.If they can be rebuilt,can someone tell me where to find parts.Thanks in advance,John

I am surprised this has not been converted, when I worked for Cadillac we did these conversions all time. I would check the advertisers in Hemming News, for one.

Oldsmobile offered the system in '58 as well.  Check with Fusick Oldsmobile--www.fusick.com.

Try Mastermind in CA.  He has rebuild kits for the Brougham valves (they are different of course) and parts for the 59 & 60 versions.  He might be able to help you.  I lost my computer, so I do not have the link handy, but if search with Mastermind.net, you should be able to find is site.  Try emailing as his phone answering machine does not work very well.

I have spare RR valve, but I'm sure it needs a rebuild as well.
