I like this one..looks good.

 

so question, can you run two air compressors at the same time, ie one for the front tires and one for the back tires. I wired a power port to the back of my bax and was wondering if the alt or battery would die by doing this???

 

you should be able to viair's X-treme system comes with 2 compressors and a 2 gal tank. however now that i think about it, that might be so when one is at a cooldown point the other can be running. i think the rule is somethin like 15 min. on 15 min off.

if you can run two im sure we will find out from someone soon

 

ALG : this is a couple months old

long live a good idea though



you could run two but it would put a considerably higher amount of draw on the electrical system

you put in a fast idle switch to up rpms on demand to help out
a second battery or a capacitor would be good

but at that point you should be thinking about a different system entirely

THIS is an excellent setup though

it would be nice to work out a fitting setup that did not require a hose clamp though

Excellent work

 

Thanks! I wasn't concerned about using a hose clamp with this set-up as I'm only using it to a max of about 35 psi. If I install a tank I'll replace the cut section of hose with a prefab 2' section with factory installed NPT connectors on the ends.

 

I have not been able to find a compressor like this in any of the stores around me. I have found one at Cosco similar in size but it use a 120v plug. Could I hard wire this to my battery with some thick guage wire? I need somethiong better than a 12v hookup but dont have the cash right now for an expensive setup...any feed back would be appreciated. Thanks, Mike

 

better yet...would it be possible to splice a set of jumper cables into the 120 v wireing?

 

No, don't do that.

You can get them at Pep Boys if you have one of those near you.

Master Flow MF-1050 Tsunami Air Compressor.

 

Going to check my local Harbor Frieght Store to see what types of compressors they have, any suggestions?

 

I found the same compressor at my local Sams Club for $51.12, I'm going to go pick one up today after I get my AEV Bridgers put on. This will be a good project for the weekend.
