Thanks guys! I got some of the parts in for the air management kit. Pics to follow...

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

So here they are... box full of goodies, including the black Viair air compressors, PB brackets, Accuair VU4 valve, and a bunch of fittings and hardware.

:metal:

I have always found that everythime I order all the connectors I need, I never have all of them. No matter how many times I think it over. Excited to see it all setup.

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

Funny, I seem to have the same problem. :lol: Hopefully that's not the case here. Travis set me up with everything, and I'm sure he's got his stuff together. He has done quite a few of these after all... *fingers crossed*

Viair gauges for each corner (dual needles per gauge). Part of the Pro2 kit from Pro Performance.

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

Very nice parts Duane!

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

That's gonna make things that much more of a blast! Killer parts.

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

Thanks guys!

I put a fresh coat of paint on the PB brackets on my lunch break today.

I'm following.

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

Thanks for joining... There won't be a lot of updates since I'm doing this on a tight budget, while still driving it. Hopefully my occasional updates aren't too boring.

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

I started assembling the air tank / compressor brackets... I know everyone likes pics, so here they are...

I had to put all the fittings on the tank and bolt it to the bracket to check fitment. Dropped the air compressor in the bracket too, just for a picture for all of us that like to see what's happening.

Checked the UPS tracking for the Accuair SwitchSpeed controller... Should be here today! :metal:

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

great job on putting the compressor brackets together!... :)

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

Looking good!

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

exciting spot to be in. I will be watching closely

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

Looking good Duane.

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

Thanks guys!

SwitchSpeed controller came late yesterday...

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

I pulled my air cleaner off and painted the chrome ring, so I don't have to keep using steel wool to rub off the surface rust... You'll also notice the silver headers aren't in the pics. I've pulled them off to replace leaky/blown gaskets and decided they needed a fresh coat of VHT Header Black. Haven't finished it yet, but I'll get pics of them later.

My Lokar pedals also came in yesterday. Thanks Sarah and Kyle (Laidbackrecreations)!

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

Dig the black accent on the air cleaner. I'm sure the headers will look sharp too!

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

Nice, how was the ride up to Lonestar?

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

It was pretty cool. We had about a dozen or so trucks cruise in together.

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

Wow stocking up on some killer parts. Trucks looking awesome to Duane.

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

Their shouldn't be any cobwebs in yours, grahams or my truck after Saturday that's for sure! Did you guys hit anymore rain after I peeled off at I-10?. I had to pull her out sunday and wash it up, couldn't stand it being that dirty!

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

I have the Lokar pedals in my '86.. Lokar makes some awesome products!

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
 

Definitely no more cobwebs...or spiders :lol: It rained on me a few more times between there and home. I still haven't washed mine since it sits outside and is still being rained on. :(

I'm looking forward to getting them installed. They look like really nice pieces. The brake pedal is looking like it might be difficult. The sleeve inside the pivot isn't budging at the moment. I really don't want to pull the entire assembly out, but I may just need to.
