i built a bracket to locate the compressor over the IP on the intake shelf. i also moved the tensioner and used industrial application alternator stuff and ended up with a belt from a ford pickup. the compressor is the dodge one, but i will use a different application of the sanden 4474(?) that has a different port arrangement. there are pics way back in the thread some where and i can try to dig one out of PB too

some more additions

this thing is back





i will be getting the case to the powder coaters soon.

i whittled this out the other day. its an air manifold to direct compressed air around the front of the truck.





i didnt get pics of it mounted i guess, so more on that later

i got these suckers bolted on





they work out just right to not bottom out ever and they run out of stroke in such a way that the bags don't over extend.

i also got this wedged in, the pics are lame, but its hard to get good pics under it..
