75 Dually Project - 22s and stylin

Found this picture on the Facebook page Lowered Chevrolet Dually's. If this is your truck you are a very lucky dude! This is exactly what I am aiming for. Now I really want my truck to be done!

that truck is sweet!

Several new toys showed up today! I got my 1/2" valve, and polished stainless steel air tank. I also got my coalescing filter in today as well. This will work with my York 210 once it shows up. I still need to order an air dryer to go along with the coalescing filter, but I simply forgot the other day when ordering all the other parts...

So once I get the front end all buttoned up I am going to start on the air ride components.

Getting closer...

What does a coalescing filter do?

Basically it removes the oil from compressed air coming from the compressor. York 210 pumps, like what I plan on using, tend to send a little bit of oil into the compressed air stream, and it is best if it gets removed before it reaches your air tank. You want as clean and dry of an air supply as you can get so that your valves function properly. I also have on order an moisture separator as well. The 2 together make a really good air filtration system.

Here is a good York 210 build to see what a total system can look like and all the other parts required to have an air supply like this on a truck.

Make sure you mod your York to not pass as much oil. Either the set screw under the pulley of the screw in the head trick. I have yet to do the head trick but it looks easy. I'm going with an industrial front drive CTD compressor so I'll have a couple York 210's for sale.

That is exactly what I plan on doing to my York. That head mod looks to be rather simple. Below is my York which just showed up today! Been like Christmas around here lately!

I would really like to see your install of the CTD. Make sure to post some pics as you make progress.

The cross member is out! What a cruddy job! Still it has to be done... I am going to put it on my welding table and work on the spring pockets and make new mounts for the upper airbags. That is the stuff that I enjoy, fabrication.

Next on the list is to drill and plasma all the new holes 1" forward. Still have to move the steering box and the other steering components 1" forward as well. Once all that is done I can reinstall all the front suspension and move on to the air ride portion of the build.

I got my Accuride stuff in today! I got the eLevel system and their iLevel system as well. Really cool stuff!

Been going through the instructions today and seeing how I hook it up to my 1/2" Airbagit valve. It is fairly straight forward. The rest of the items are just nuts and bolts, and some plug and play. The big items are finishing up the front suspension and then finding locations for all the level sensors.

Now I have to see where I want to mount all these items. I also have to find a good location for the valve and the air tank.

This is a great thread....... thanks for all the great details and pictures
