The individual valves unscrew and then you can remove the restrictor and clean it. See if that helps. The cab can fall with the valve removed if its up.

I swapped the suspension lower valve with the spare tire selector valve but nothing changes. When I pump it's locked up in either direction. Maybe try checking the bottom selection valve?The individual valves unscrew and then you can remove the restrictor and clean it. See if that helps. The cab can fall with the valve removed if its up.
Update, I was able to follow this post and get the tire unstuck . https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/stuck-spare.201084/page-2I swapped the suspension lower valve with the spare tire selector valve but nothing changes.

Edit: I see in the video the restrictor is deeper in the hole. If it is clogged will it cause this issue? I guess I don't fully understand how that valve works yet.
I was going to suggest calling our LMTV Cab lowering expert, Chucky, but he beat me to it.I know how to get the cab down fast but you wouldnt want to try it ! Be glad it doesnt just drop on you and crush you ! Once you get it figured out alway jack that cab all the way over past 180 degrees and brace it with something stout just for your own safety it sounds like overkill till one falls on ya !
LOL all you have to do is unscrew the 1 1/2 nut on the cab latch valve till the fluid shoots out and she comes on down in a milasecond easy peasy ! The really sloooow part is the recovery and hospital bills !I was going to suggest calling our LMTV Cab lowering expert, Chucky, but he beat me to it.
Only thing i KNOW is if you want to test it get about 4 feet of extentions and a 1 1/2 in socket and stand out from under the cab and unscrew that nut and BLAM shes down !Chuckys "event" should never have happened. The safety check in the cylinder should have locked it. I was able to trip mine fairly easily with the manual control lever on the hand pump before i put in the limiter and ultimately the adjustable flow control valve. The safety would lock if I went over more than about 1/2 of the control lever travel...
