    D.I.Y. Endless Air - On-board Air systems

    G'day guys,

    Well i figured that lots of guys are looking to set up air systems on their trucks and here is a good spot to put pics, ideas and links for people to use as resources.

    Here are a couple of links that i just found in an Ebay add would you believe. They look like that is some really good info there and some good close up pics of stuff for you.


    First link is for a diagram of an endless air system. really good resource there

    This is a link for mounting onto a Jeep but click on the pics and there are some good ideas there

    Here is a good place to find some pics of different stuff. with the Aussie $ the way it is they may even be well priced.

    And for all your switching needs check this seller out on ebay.

    I will post up some pics of my air system when i get a chance.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    How big tanks are most people running? I've got a 20L aluminum air tank that I am going to use, not sure if it is overkill, or maybe take too long to fill etc? Probably for an electric compressor, but SD7 should be fine I hope.
