Pac Brake Air Suspension Question

What type of thread sealant is used for this install? I have thread sealer in a tube that works for copper and pvc pipes, will this work or is there a specific sealer more suited to air pressure conditions?
thanks Jamie

I just did this install yesterday and it really doesn't matter. I used pipe thread teflon tape with about 3 wraps and it sealed my fittings up fine.

Same here.. did mine about a month and a half ago, great product, easy install, i dont think the sealant you have would work unless it dries solid. the stuff i'm thinking of that i've used in the past in a tube, doesnt dry, it stay's moist and may not work. I say just get some teflon tape, cheap and easy to find and works
