problem hooking up gauges on my bagged truck
What type of fittings did you use to hook up your air pressure gauges on your bagged truck? I wanted to get a t fitting with two 3/8 ports and one 1/8 port, but I cant find any. Im trying to read the pressure on my 3/8 lines and my gauge has two 1/8 male npt fittings. I wanted to run 1/8 line to the gauges because I was going to put them in my dash and I wanted something flexible.

Re: problem hooking up gauges on my bagged truck
I know ART & SuicideDoors both offer 1/4" to 1/8" PTC 'T' fittings; not sure about 3/8" to 1/8".
You might need to reduce your 3/8" line w/readily available reducers & then reduce the line size again for the 1/8" stuff if there's not a direct 3/8" to 1/8" reducer.

Re: problem hooking up gauges on my bagged truck
Drill and tap an existing fitting. I've got a 3/8" npt t immediately after a fill valve, one end goes to the bag and the other goes to dump valve. Drilled and tapped a fitting in the side of it for my gauges
