[The Green Lantern]

Ok, I finally installed my compressor.

Thanks F5 for the diagrams, I ended up not removing the panels.

The 400P can air up a 35" x 12.5" tire from 15 to 30 PSI in about 1.25 minutes, and air down the same tire from 30 to 15 PSI in about 2.75 minutes using the versatile 35 ft. air down hose.

Nice.

I'd recommend using rubber grommets on all of the holes where the cable passes through metal.

Sweet,....will do. :beerchug:

nice install:perfect10s:

Nice, great location. :clapping: Do you get any vibration from the compressor while driving?
I totally agree with DRTY, add some rubber to some of those locations, and I'm sure there is a fuse at the start of the B+ cable.
(Next time write me, there is a way to go from front to back without cutting any holes in the vehicle, except at the trim panel.)

TGL Looks good. To air down I would buy the stauns they work great and can be set to a psi you want and can be put on all 4 tires at the same time.

F5, what might that path be? Please enlighten us :-) I assume through the firewall and under trim and carpet?

Thanks

[f5fstop]

Actually, the path is just inside the rear luggage compartment trim panel; in the rear corner. Fish the wire down, then through a square hole, and then down under the vehicle. Then run the wire over to the driver's side (or you can find a hole on the driver's side too), and follow the routing of the rear trailer harness wiring. This goes up into the engine compartment, right behind the battery.
Or you could just follow and tie strap on top of the frame rails, and around body mounts.

Very cool!

what is it's max PSI? Could you fill a Air tank with it?

[Klint]

I need to find a dry place that I can almost sound proof but still allow air in that I can put a 200PSI compressor that will fill my 3GAL air tank for my train horns lol:twak: any Ideas?

[RubHer Yellow Ducky]

Nice job... How long did it take?

Not sure yet, but I know it can air up a 35" x 12.5" tire from 15 to 30 PSI in about 1.25 minutes....

How long?, I'm guessing a good 2-3 hours.

Wow, that's a hard one Klint. That size?, the only place that I can think of is the rear luggage area. You can probably put it in a box or something....:)

[aetherH3]

what size/kind of wiring did you use to run it to the back of the truck?

[GPan099]

Any issues/concerns with heat melting the plastic around it? I know the compressor I use gets real hot filling 4 tires.

Sweet install TGL!!:perfect10s: :clapping:
