We used the cab fitting with a 3/8" hose and 1/4" fittings to power my 1/2" gun through two tires swaps last dirt bag. Until I installed the reel I used that set up to run every air tool I took out to the truck since it takes 200 feet of hose to reach it from my shop compressor.
Yesterday I...
Aren't those the same wheel/tires Phil (Barneyszoo) is running on his five ton? And being a factory cargo truck his is longer, so bigger?
:)
You might wanna give it a lift kit and even bigger tires.
Gonna look great though man! Can't wait for DIRTBAG!!
I installed an actual hose reel with hi-flo fittings directly off the tank for about 40 dollars. The glad hand method is tried and true and a few bucks checper, but you still have to store the hose somewhere. When I'm done using my hose I just retract it.
Thanks - I feel 2% better now.
Instead of marking them, double checking things myself, etc, etc, I put it all on the boy. He's a smart kid, but still, I can't have a bearing failure due to my stupidity one the way up or down the mountain this weekend.
I'm going to jack it up, and pull the...
My son and I replaced the oil seal, axle seal and boot on my front axle over the weekend. We took it slow and because of a late start and a trip to get some tools we didn't finish in one day.
We put the bearings in their own plastic bags and since I was too lazy to get a marker we put them...

If you go - just say NO to the mine trail ride and YES to...
I just did a two mile shakedown on my oil seal/boot repair. Big thanks to BarneysZoo (Phil) for the use of the tools.
The boy is going out after lunch to clean and repaint the rims.
I need to pre op the ATVs and the M105/kids condo.
They were hammered on by a 1" gun at the tire shop. I used a 1" gun to hammer them OFF and then reinstalled with my 1/2" gun using truck air. The same set up I will have when I get a flat alongside the road.
The reason the lugs were hard to remove is because the shop doing the tire swap installed them using a professional grade 1 inch drive gun fed by an industrial compressor.
When I tried to remove them with my 1/2 drive gun, a 3/4 gun, a 1 inch (HF) gun and a 3/4 inch breaker bar with a 6 foot...
