Description
Predator HD Parts KD2445-PHD is a 5-port height-control / cab-leveling valve with a built-in dump feature that replaces Barksdale KD2445 / KD2374, Kenworth G90-1065-4 / G90-1073-024, and Newstar S-23586 on Kenworth W900 / W900B / W900L and T800 air-ride cab and suspension systems. The valve ships pre-fitted with 1/4″ push-to-connect (PTC) fittings on all four supply / delivery / exhaust / dump ports for plug-and-play replacement.
Signs You Need a New Leveling Valve
- Cab or suspension fails to return to ride height after dump / kneel
- Constant air bleed at the exhaust port even after the suspension is settled
- Cab leans to one side and won’t self-level after airing up
- Suspension dumps or rises on its own without input
- Stripped, leaking, or corroded factory PTC fittings
