i kinda understand, run a supply line to the extra valve. where does the air blow off to when you suck up the tire? do i need to use both of the valves for one side? when the top one pumps the bottom one has to dump, and there is no where for the air to go. Thanks you have been more help than anyone. i threw a pic in for the hell of it

okay when you dump the opposite front cylinder of the wheel you want to go up, you first need to dump the front and then dunp the air from the cylinder you wish to 3 wheel and then youput air in the exhuast of the cylinder to push the wheels up, with all the air out the top of the cylinder you then have the room you need for the air going throught the bottom of the cylinder to do the suck up... now you just do the same thing in reverse. then when going back down you release the air from the extra valve, add air to the top of the cylinder and you have the room for the Air becuase you realesed the air from the bottom. so when you add the air to the back cylinder, you then need to add air back to the front cylinder and then your okay agian. believe me i had the same questions when i did it to my bros car. it works though i can send pictures of his three wheel... i can asure you it'll work out. just make sure you put the line to the extra valve from the tank if you dont you'll be sractchin' you head for some time. god luck and ask away any time.

depends what valves your using. if your using a 3 postrition vavle you need only one, a three position vavles works like 2 valves. but if your using the valves like smc or parker thenyou need two one for up and one for down. i need to charge my batters ill send pics tho
