What are you looking to install OBA on? There are several different ways to do the job. Factory AC is the easiest route. Next would be a YORK. Get the 1.0 if your buying from a bone yard.

I have the 0.6 and it's fine for tires and busting the odd bolt free. I run an old O2 tank under the hood. The system works great.

Eric's welder works good for trail repairs. There is also a great writeup on Pitates site for a welder using NAPA parts. They are all US numbers and won't work here. I have most of it built from crossing numbers. I already have AC for grinding etc so I'm passing on that.

The jeep are both YJ's

The intent would be for airing up tires and emergency bolt removal if needed like you said and we were talking about mild trail repairs for the welder (enough to limp home with). Thanks for the suggestions.

We will be doing a junk yark walk through soon and the topic flew into our heads....thanks again.

OBA is rather simple to install....go to your local semi truck salvage yard and get a CCI A/C compressor from there..you can get it with either a serpentine clutch or v-groove.

The hardest part of it is getting the bracket for the engine..best place to get that is www.onboardair.com

then its a matter of running the plumbing, wiring up the pressure switch and on/off switch, and installing a tank if you want one..

Team Mod Squad have a write up on their site of my install

What's their website address? That sounds like a good read!

Thanks
