got a drain on the tank? using hardline off the compressor output? heat resistant something? Tank has a drain, but the fittings were on the opposite side, so pointing the drain down would point the fittings at the floor of the Jeep. In the short term, I'll un-bolt the tank and curse to drain it. Long term, I'll probably take you up on your offer to weld in a drain.  All of the plumbing is being handled by someone else once I have all the components installed. Already discussed using stainless or something that will dissipate heat for the first foot or so before getting into any of the other components. |

BTT. Finally had an opportunity to install the rest of the parts. Updated my original post with photos and descriptions.

Nice job, very clean install I'm not sure on the outlet on the front of the bumper tho. Doesn't that open it up to trail damage? |

I've been successful only driving into things so far, so I'm hoping the outlet will be Ok on the rear bumper. Considering putting an outlet in the front, either under the hood, or accessible through the grille slots.

Come with me I'll show ya... |

![]() Just food for thought, you can get a very small, totally sealed pressure switch, locally for about $35. link They are preset cut in, cut out. I have used one on my race bike for a few years now. Very tolerant of heat and vibration. Link won't work, here is a pic thorbros.com/catalog/air-management/pressure-switches |
