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. ![]()

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! ![]()

Re: Adding to the C20
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!
