Goddamn Air Springs

So Monday, I replaced both air springs to resolve the sagging ass-end when parked. It held it's level for 4-5 days and I started to sit down yet again. I am hearing a slight whistle/hissing noise coming from in front of the drivers side wheel under the truck. I'm confused because I always hear the compressor in front under the passenger seat. Whatre the thoughts?

Maybe the leak is facing that way and reverberating in a way that makes it sound like its on the drivers side? If you replaced both air bags then the leak is in a line somewhere or at the compressor. If this is the case, its odd that it didn't leak for several days but then started up again. Maybe something was done wrong with the replacement bags? I've never messed with this air suspension before so hopefully someone who knows more will chime in.
