The air compressor should be capable of pressures above 100psi. This is well beyond what is required for the suspension. It does have enough pressure to rupture the air suspension bladers if the air leveling valve fails. Most large truck air suspensions only require about 20-40psi to support their 80k lb weight. Unfortunately the compressor lacks sufficient volume (CFM) run any kind of air tools. Compressors of the size in the H2 are rated in CFH (cubic feet/hour) that is why it takes so long to air up a tire. Most air tools require a pretty good supply volume, about 6-8 CFM @ 90psi to operate. Sorry, but it would be nice if it worked that way. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif[/img]
