do you want push connect fittings or compression? and where are you mountin the valves? on the tank? or on the frame? or what?

Ok I'm going to mount them on the tank just to get the truck off blocks and rolling. Also the push connection fittings are they strong and would you use them in your settings

I love push connect, or PTC fittings. . so much easier to work with and as long as the air line is cut straight, you will have no leaks or any problems out of em. . . And I'm guessin you jus want front/back right now since you jus wanna get it rollin? ? If so. . You would need: (this setup has the compressors goin in each end port, drain cock on bottom, plug on top, 2 sets of valves on side, gauge on side, and plug on side)

6 - 1/2" close nipple
2 - 1/2" tee w/ gauge fitting
2 - 1/2" npt x 1/2" tube straight male PTC (for valves)
2 - 3/8" npt x 1/2" tube straight male PTC (for front bags)
2 - 1/2" npt x 1/2" tube, elbow PTC (for rear bags)
1 - drain cock (for the bottom port on your tank)
2 - 1/2" x ? bushings (for your compressor leader hose connects to the tank. . depends on what compressors you get. . 480s? you'd need 1/2" x 3/8", any smaller ones, you'd need 1/2" x 1/4")
2 - 1/2" plug
1 - 90 degree gauge fitting with 1/4" thread
1 - 1/2" x 1/4" bushing (for gauge fitting on tank)
3 - gauge fitting for the back of gauge


I'm pretty sure that'd do it. . . . Sorry if I missed anything. . .
