[QUOTE="JeepLuvr1954, post: 428396, member: 19194"] Round 2 on the compressor install: plumbing!!! Here's the supplies I've been waiting for and the bracket I made for the QD. The hose is a 21" Viair primary hose with check valve (for future tank install). I got a 1/4" NPT through frame bulkhead fitting to attach the QD for rigidity. [ATTACH type="full"]116336[/ATTACH] I am a big proponent of Teflon tape for pipe thread connections. I'm an old school hydraulic guy so I like it's possibility for instant sealing (unlike paste). Just make sure you don't let any of the tape hang past the end of the threads. [ATTACH type="full"]116337[/ATTACH] A quick pic of the plumbing before reattaching the seat. [ATTACH type="full"]116338[/ATTACH] And the finished product. There's a couple of holes in the side of the seat riser that were perfect to run a tap through for 1/4-20 bolts. I threaded them, ran the bolts through, and put jamb nuts on the backside for extra support. Super easy access!!! [ATTACH type="full"]116339[/ATTACH] Next time I'll be finishing up the wiring.
