1. An air management system for a vehicle, the air management system comprising:
a first pneumatic circuit configured to independently adjust air pressure of a first side of the vehicle;
a second pneumatic circuit configured to independently adjust air pressure of a second side of the vehicle; and
a cross-flow line connecting the first pneumatic circuit with the second pneumatic circuit;
wherein the air management system is configured to establish pneumatic communication between the first and second pneumatic circuits through the cross-flow line when the air management system is simultaneously switched to a cross-flow mode to establish pneumatic communication through a first cross-flow port in fluid communication with the first pneumatic circuit and a second cross-flow port in fluid communication with the second pneumatic circuit, and wherein the air management system is configured to not independently adjust the air pressure of the first side of the vehicle and the air pressure of the second side of the vehicle in the cross-flow mode, and
wherein the first pneumatic circuit comprises a first leveling valve and the second pneumatic circuit comprises a second leveling valve, and each of the first and second leveling valves includes a housing body and a control arm pivotably connected to a shaft extending through the housing body, and the control arm is configured to pivot from a neutral position to one or more response positions.
