if you dont have the receipt just buy the exact same thing again walk out and back in again with the busted part and if they ask tell them it fell apart within a second
you then have two new ones ...... if you lost the reciept you had to buy the part again anyway
done that a few times when i was low on cash on stuff like electric heaters , works good if you lost the original box to return it in as whell

Are you a insider club member, if not You need to get in on it. Cost I think $25 and you can save a lot of money. Some stuff goes 50%-70% just for being a member.

I get in A LOT of trouble at HF. I start in shopping and pretty quick I have a cart or two full of stuff I cannot live without.
I live probably 25 miles away from the store and since I do not get on that side of town that often, I tend to stock up on essentials when I am there.

Mainly stuff like grinder discs and cut-off wheels and wire brushes, air tools and pretty quick I am in deep dept again.
Much Safer if I do not go too often.:chevy:

When you get the paper with all the sales on it, you have to bring that coupon with you.

I hope your not expecting fast bags using 1/4" air lines? What size valves are you using?

3/8";) I've had it hooked up to my air compressor in my garage. It goes up pretty fast. I heard 1/2 was to much. You can adjust how fast or slow on the accair switch control. I think I'll switch my tank around so all the holes/plugs are in front. Might look better. Tried to hide all the parts, so thet don't walk off. I think I'll build a old looking box to cover it all.

Re: Daverods project 66
 
I'm going to use 1/2" because that's what I have left over from the shop I closed. I already have 2 air bags, 1 compressor, all the fittings, 8 SMC valves, air lines, and tanks. All I need is one more compressor, and 2 bags. I even have a custom made chrome triangle 4 link, and all the front bag brackets, and gauges. Damn, I need to get that truck put together. :uhmk:

With 1/2" I also have a adjustable muffler to slow it down. I'm going "old school". :lol:
