Its in a critical area so i figured i would double ziptie it here. Also the wire for the driver side is ran beside these and it heads under the radiator and pops out right where it needs to be......then same thing, cut, solder, heat shrink, re-loom........done.

A shot of the finished product......new plumbing, new wiring......

I almost called it quits for the night but i decided to raise it up and take the back wheels off. One thing led to another and i decided to get the plumbing done on the rear corners as well. Tomorrow i will wire up the rest and also the tank pressure sensor as well.

Rear plumbing done, heres how she sits for the night

it was wiring MADNESS today...

Again, everything cut to length, soldered, and heat shrunk. Then put back in the loom.

All pressure sensors finally in

Cant forget the tank pressure sensor.....

Got tired of running yellow wires "directly to the battery" and since i know there will be more when i get down to the stereo system, i figured i would put a nice "power point" in the cabin so i wont have to go thru the firewall again during this install (i think anyway)

A few items i meticulously installed only to realize i didnt need it. It is a relay for the compressor, to turn it on at a healthy 135-150 psi (user selectable). Too bad im on a 200psi system and that part is already done. Oh well at least its there if someone ever wants to roll with the small dogs at 135 in the future LOL.

This was the original wiring.....its sorta fugly so i re-did it. I have 3 seperate systems running in this truck so i have some serious splicing to do and i cant have it lookin like this

First things first, identify each solenoid...its a task if you arent the original installer but i got it eventually

I had to map out the wiring and make a record of it in case i ever need to tap in again....you can see the other 2 system wire colors next to the AirRide tech wires (which incidently were totally the wrong color too but i dealt with it )

These are the original flat wires for the little miniture caddy switch box. They have been all over the place for a while now but i layed em down flat and smooth and then Hushmatted over them to hold them in place. I left sections open so you can see the wires so somewhere down the line someone doesnt put a screw thru them or something.

Starting to take shape now....all wires, just like the rest of the system, have been cut to length, soldered, and heatshrunk. This will end up being a fairly big cluster since i have 3 air control systems spliced together now.

todays work.....i can finally almost say im done laying under the truck!

CarPuter came in today!! Sick as hell! The 10.2" touchscreen monitor will be molded in the dash soon

A little modification to the factory fittings...

Nitrogen bottle time!

[meade916]

Now time to tap into the system with the nitrogen bottle. A 3 way T will do it.

X marks the spot i need a hole big enough for 1 air line and 8 4ga wires to pass thru

[meade916]

4ga Speaker wire.......probably overkill for mids and highs but it is a long run from the rear to the front and this amp takes 4ga wire on all the terminals so why not
