Jack,
Don't know about your pilot valve, but a little research into the air bags can save a lot of money. I had the four bags on the front of our '85PT replaced last year at a truck repair shop here in Houston. The shop got the bags from the Firestone distributor here and cost of bags and installation was about $100 less than BB wanted for the bags.
Ridewell buys bags from Firestone, BB buys bags from Ridewill. Mark-up, Mark-up, Mark-up

Jack: call Blue Bird parts at 800/495-7787 for the pilot valve at a cost of about $60, if you don't like the price they will give you the name and number and you can buy it locally. As to the exterior cracked air bags, they are almost certainly original but you should talk to Bennie Collier at Blue Bird tech support (800/992-6337)who will tell you the cracked exterior on the air bags is no indication of the air bag's interior condition. You can also call Ridewell and Firestone and discuss the bag condition with them.
