this is going to sound dumb to some but want to make sure i do it right.. im a hydraulic freak so remember that while i ask this. i got 2 5 gallon tanks on my caddillac and a huge nitrogen tank thats not hooked up yet. all my valves are mounted on the tanks. but im gonna move them to the wheels. how do i run the nitrogen tank.. would i run it like a lineto the valve from the tank and a line from the noitrogen tank also in to a tee that comes out of the valve. like have one from airtank runnin in one side of the tee and one from nitrogen runnin in to the other side of the tee. this is how imwas going to do it with a check valve on each side of the tee that way the airtank air want be shooting up to the nitrogen tank and the nitrogen want be shooting in to the airtank line. i know theres a better way to write this but im a picture person i could show you on a pic better than describe it.. this idiot told me to run the nitrogen tank to the auirtank which dont makes since because it would just fill the airtank right?????????? sorry this sounds complicated i just diont know how to write what im trying to describe.... i did say i was a hydraulic freak hahaha i just dont want to run nitrogen all the time if that makes since thanks

Just run a line from the regulator on your nitrogen bottle, to one of your air tanks....thats it, it's that simple.....

don't worry about air back feading into one tank or the other (trust me the nitrogen will have to much pressure for any "air" to enter the bottle ) And if you don't let the nitrogen use your air tanks as resovours, it will be slow as hell trying to feed you whole system from one line

hope this helps

proven fact unless your build an airhopper air dancer, whether the valves are on the tank or at the wheels it doesnt make a difference...

like when i got to air built in the tank say like a 100lbs ill hit it for the fron t and it fills the lines up and thenif it builds up to 2lbs it will pop up fast. but if i just run it to 200lbs before i fill the line up it raises maybe a 1 1/2 off the ground like the car has the 2 lines going to front which is about 18 feet of 1/2 inch line it has to fill i know that shit want lift up in front .. ive hated the damn shi t since ive put it on there.. it my opinion though im just a hydraulic guy so dont bust me on that.. i dont want to take it off just want to make the front lift... honestly the front acts dead as shit unless i fill the lines up first and the ass end is hopping bout a foot off the ground with a 180lbs got me. on that regulator i was wondering because want it keep filling the tanks up until it out of nitrogen o keep the compressors turning on??????
