Great write up on this. How much do you think you have invested in it total.

 

Probably right around 150, maybe a little less. I had bought stuff to do it one way and ended up going another route and returned some of what I had bought to get other stuff.

Manifold was $10, oiler and separator were 30, mini filter was 5. Pop off and check valve were 20. I spent 20 on a used compressor. Pressure switch was 12. Everything else was fittings and hoses.

 

Wher did you buy your switch

 

eBay. Everything except the compressor and the assorted fittings I got on eBay.

You could probably find fittings cheaper online, but it was worth it for me to pay a bit more at the hardware store so I could figure out everything in the store. And I had to make a couple trips because I changed things along the way. So I recommend sucking it up and buying those locally.

 

Thanks

 

bump to the top...because this thread is so cool.

 

Dang! This is pretty awesome! Now I just have to read it like 20 times to understand how it works :P

 

HudsonN, where did you mount your tank? Using the bumper for a tank is an awesome idea, but I don't see myself changing out my bumper any time too soon. Just looking for tank location ideas...

 

i mounted mine in the back

I didn't mount it.

It's sitting directly behind the rear seats. If you noticed I put two quick disconnects on the tank. I did this so if I need to bring air to someone located somewhere that I can't bring my jeep I can just fill the tank up, disconnect it, and carry the tank to where needed.

 

What do you mean can't get jeep places?

 

Lol. Jeeps can get anywhere.

 

Just an update, I have had zero problems with this set-up so far.

 

I have a small leak or leaks at the fittings but no other problems here.thanks again for a great writeup.
