How long does it take to fill that 5 gal tank? I assume in the video the tank was full, and needed to fill by the end?

Re: a little vid of my air ride

lol no it is just a crap vid...lol the gap does not move that much...it takes about 6 min to fill the tank and no it was not empty when i stopped, but it took about 3 min to fill it back up, so I think is was 1/2 full... I have another tank and a engine driving comp that I am going to put on soon, then I will be able to hit the switches as much as I like and not run out of air.

Thanks for the info, I think that setup will work just fine for what I want to do, as long as I can air up/down twice in a single tank I'll be happy. I have a york compressor that I was going to use but I think the electric is much easier and I dont have to mess with making the bracket.

I just picked up a york, anyone happen to know what the max pressure the york's can handle before you blow the head off it or damage it?

Re: a little vid of my air ride

i dont know but you would want to cut it off around 180-200 psi, no reason to go over that!
