mike fallon Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 ok so you have a scuba tank going to somewhere. You might need a low pressure storage tank. The scuba tank is like your compresser not storage tank. The picture of the valves is of the electrical connectors. can you get to the side with the hoses? Some things that make it faster. -Add a low pressure tank -move the valves closer to the bags -Bigger diameter lines. Most valves can pass a lot of volume quick, but if it is going down a long line to the bag it takes a while for the truck to move Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike fallon Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 ok. im confused now. they might be using the scuba tank for a storage tank fed by the compressor. If you could get some pictures under the truck it would help. There might be all the correct parts in the truck just set up wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sully Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 looked like 3/8 or 1/2 inch braided air line going to the valves so if it is that size all the way to the tank then you are good to go. If you can take a pic of your compressor and see if it has a model number on it we can help you see if it is set up right. Some compressors can only go to 140 PSI and you have to have a pressure switch to control the on and off time of the compressors so they don't burn up. I personally like the Viair 480C Compressors, they are reliable and go to 200PSI without damage. Couldn't get a good look at the valves but if i had to guess they are 1/4 inch inner diameter so that is a choke point for air flow. Check for a model number and google it to get the specs.

trulywickedcustoms Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 id say the set up looks good, from what we can see atleast, we just did a buddy of mines 66' chevy with a- 12gal tank, 2 viair 480 comp's, 8- 1/2" gc extreme valves (with 1/2" plastic line) and set psi switch @ 200 and it barly chips off the ground (small hop) and he is running firestone bags with 3/8" ports so i kno that should be more than enough for any daily setup..... just my 2c. id check out the comp. and as said a storage tank would help IMO (do you have a gauge on the tank???) if so whats it setting at when you lift?
