Blazer Bash 2020 last minute thrash

Have to weld on mounts for shock reservoirs, get metal for @Fastereddie and I to do a crossmember. Mount the center console. Switch out spare for the new 37s and mount the storage box/cooler. Build a rear bumper with recovery points. New front driveshaft with super joints. Find a trailer. Almost there whoo hooo.
 
I got the camper "squared" up and mounted on the truck. It's been in storage for 2 years so I have some cleaning to do but it is in better shape then I remembered.It needs a new coach battery but refer still works so I upgraded my spot at MRC to one with power.

I removed the old trailer fenders and started prepping for drive over fenders.Should get the new fenders fabbed up on Saturday. I noticed some weather cracking in the trailer tires so ordered 4 new tires and wheels. My wheels are ok but needed blasted and repainted, time is money so better off just buying new wheels.

I took the tank to General Air at 1095 Zuni for the re-cert they send it off and it takes a week, then to fill it Way to Grow at 301 57th Avenue is supposed to be cheap, I will post prices when I am done.

General Air looks like a cool store for welding goods!!
I have accounts at General Air and Buckeye Welding Supply and need a O2 bottle. Recommendations on size, regulator?

What about the actual air line and chuck? Does it need to be something special?

How many tires will this air up? I just ordered everything except air line and chuck valve.

I have several CO2 set ups. I use a 5 pound tank in my TJ for my air lockers. I have 2 10 pound tanks and 1 20 pound tank. I can't really give an estimate of how many tires it will air up. it sure has come in handy for tires on the tow rig, trailer and rig. I just use regular air line and chucks.

I go through one pretty fast in my TJ because I tend to play with the switches so I can hear the air rushing out of them. LOL
I use these on my tanks: https://www.ebay.com/itm/CO2-Brass-...590494?hash=item2cc78ee01e:g:e-UAAOSwsB9bmWFt

What are those brass seals for? Sorry for the noob questions just learning
 
between the regulator and the tank there is usually a nylon seal. these brass ones screw into the tank and are always there so when you take the regulator off you don't have to worry about the nylon one falling out and losing it. However, when you take your tank to get filled it is usually best to take the brass seal out so they can fill it and not lose your brass seal.

nothing to be sorry for, ask all the questions you want. this is just the way I do it and it may not even be right. :D
 
I party nekkid, not really that usually ends the party...
