probably blew a line. If it came from under the truck I would like maybe something on the compressor.

I agree. Start looking for cracks, leaks, etc.

I would put a couple of cans of 134a with dye in it, then look for the leak.

Look for obvious leaks, blown lines, etc first.

I don't think it is a blown line because .the compressor still kicks in and out and with the gauges .I have 25psi on the low side and every once in a while.After you drive is it will blow some more out.

Yes they have a relief valve on the compressor. Yours maybe malfunctioning. Or you have a blockage on the high side creating enough pressure to overcome the relief setting
