budget A/C to on-board air started, ? about mounting tank and hose hookups

3/4tonYJ · 03-23-2005, 12:11 PM

i bought this 3 gallon air tank with guages, 70psi on, 90psi off switch, drain,regulator etc.... i'm planning on mounted it the under or in the bed, (any ideas?)
also got this filter/seperator and adjustable oiler, i'm thinking about mounting the oiler under the hood and the seperator on the tank.......

i'm wondering how everyone "spliced" into the A/c lines, i'm thinking about using unions, but bet there's alot better ideas, anyone?
ideas for intake filter?
pics of your mounting setups would be help.....
thanks

That tank looks nice, how much/where/part # ?

The separator could be mounted under the hood or at the tank, but the oiler pretty much has to be under the hood to be at the pumps intake.

Do a SEARCH and you'll find plenty of threads with ideas on this.

I used an old water fire bottle as an air tank, I mounted it with large hose clamps under the back of my 4runner

To splice the lines I cut them and crimped hydro fittings on the ends........ find a shop that makes hydro lines and your set
