On Board Air

hobbit:
Been looking at this route myself, I may well be coming into possession of the rangy compressor kit soon, so will have a good look at it when I get it, also I may scavange an air tank off a truck as the reservoir

doris:
Well I have the compressor fitted for the air con already, and its not all that good at air con so I thought I might use it for air instead.

I have twin underslung LPG tanks though, so have to find a spot for the air tank, but would think I only need 10-20litres to even out the compressor.

If I read various american sites correctly, all I will need is a tank (optional but desirable), pressure switch, incoming airfilter and oiler, regulator (optional), connectors, and piping?

wizard:
That about covers it.
this site has a good diagram http://www.onboardair.com of a onboard air system.
I have a few presure switches and safety valves in my e bay shophttp://stores.ebay.co.uk/Wizardbilt

wizard :twisted:

doris:
Thanks Wizard

Has anybody tried those airbag jacks off road..............  strikes me they could be a really easy way to quickly raise a corner to fill in under wheels etc (or change a wheel)........  more stable than farm jacks etc, and will not sink in??

winchman:
onboardair is the best source of info.
I have a York compressor all set up with correct air connections if any one wants it cheap?
Its got a bracket and 12 volt clutch.
Air / Exhaust jacks.
I have one its fab, did have a massive one but sold it when I gave up off roading, but you know the story bought another but only a small one.
