Really great thread OD. We need to roll this into a definitive LMTV air brake sticky. It sucks to page through 10 threads to find those part numbers for brake chambers or rebuild kits for one way valves.
You should have an industrial hose supplier in your area. Any place that deals with hydraulic lines should carry air line stuff. We have a company locally called pacific rubber, they carry the same dot fitting for $3-$4.
Ok i see. Reducer bushings from 3/8 to 1/4 would work. The fittings on there are the same as i linked. You push or pull on the collar and the line pulls out to change them. I would be concerned about adding more leak points by using the reducers but they would be safe.
Dot just certifies them...
to connect the air lines to valve. use DOT connectors. threaded on one end and push the tubing into the other. they are cheaper locally if you have a hose supplier or big rig parts store. hose barbs are not approved and your safety is at stake...
