So I picked up a factory tire inflator attachment with glad hand to keep on the truck. However, I am curious what other guys are running for their impact and jack setups (pictures would be awesome
.) One of the things that I am curious about is the fittings that you guys are using.. I've never dealt with 1/2" air hose fittings before, so I'm not sure which ones are best. I bought a 20 ton air over hydraulic jack from HF, and a used Chicago Pneumatic 1" impact gun. I also bought a 25' section of 1/2 I.D. hose, and a NOS glad hand attachment to adapt everything to run off of the truck. But what connectors should I use between the various components? I've seen the typical quick disconnect couplings in 1/2", but I am also seeing the rotational style fittings, the type you see on jackhammers, etc. Do those provide more airflow than the standard couplings? Obviously the 1" impact is going to need a good supply of air, so I want fittings that will have the least amount of restriction. Any help is appreciated ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
