You could run the air hose down along the drivers side frame rail and run a splitter off of that to the drivers side. I'm thinking of doing that myself! as for that fourth hole one the fuse box cover, GO FOR IT, It adds character!

I got mine installed this afternoon. I used a relay and switched it inside the cab. It's a nice compact install. I appreciate the info.

Nice set up Jeff!
Can you give a little info on the fittings / steel braided hosing from the pump to the coupling mounted on the frame rail?
Thanks!

All of the anodized fittings and S/B line are standard Russell fittings. The fitting out of the compressor is a standard pipe thread 1/4" to 7/16" and the Russell elbow is 7/16" pipe thread to a 7/16" pressure fitting. The fitting underneath is a standard Russell 7/16" pressure fitting to a 7/16" pipe thread. I did use a rubber washer behind the coupler as well as teflon tape. After setting all this up, I found out Russell also has the matching 1/4" to 7/16" pipe thread fitting coming out of the compressor. I just haven't made it up to the speed shop to get one. I know it's probably a little overkill, but I ran a 210" dragster on the IHRA circuit for about 8 years and I learned to like S/B line. It also helps when this place is a half mile from my office and the owner was one of my sponsors when I raced. He still gives me great prices.: http://www.truckaddons.com/store.htm
