If there is a "big truck" aftermarket store in your area they will have all
the "stuff" necessary to do this - spend "big bucks" and you can get an
automatice device to do this - not sure how it works - perodicaly it vents
just a little air out of bottom drain of air tank.

Subject: [MV] Air Tank release valves.

HI all. While looking through Deuce maintenance CD, I noticed an option (I
guess), of cable released air valves that attach to the air tanks and come
out the side on to a bracket attached to the truck side frame. Thus instead
of crawling under it to drain the tanks with the spigots, the cables can be
pulled and the tanks emptied of air/water.
The kit seems to have elbows off the tanks, release valves and cables with
bracket.
Is that a kit I can buy and does anyone have one for sale?
