Thumbs up Adding to the C20

I got the spare 2-6 volts hooked up to the winch so I started on my next little project.

AIR:

I bought a older air ride system back several years ago that I was going to install on my 71 C10 but never have and probably never will.
I decided the ramp needed a air supply so. I put together a small system to supply air if needed on the road.
Going to have 120PSI when done on a 3 gallon tank with a auto cutoff for it. Going to run the hot off the contactor for the winch to a relay to power it then to the pressure switch then to compressor. I wire so it only has 12 volts when the truck is running.
Will mount everything under the bed and have brackets for the compressor to sit level.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Talking Re: Adding to the C20

I got the extra batteries on the ramp running off the truck battery and charging when I flip the switch on the dash. I also hooked the compressor off the contactor switch to run the air tank compressor so I'll have air when ever the truck is running and charging the battery.
I have 25' of hose so that should cover about any kind of road side air problems!

Cool! Next time you see a hottie in Daisy Dukes at the side of the road with a flat tire, you'll be all set!
