No problems at all. And there is no possible way to make it any cheaper.

Cool. I think I have some ratcheting straps laying around in the garage.
I think I may do it like that up on the rear DS wheel well until I get some more $$ to build a cage for it like I want to.

So you have the short stroke version york? how as it worked for you so far? I currently have two short stroke yorks and im going to the junkyard next week, I know they have two volvos with yorks, was just wondering if I should bother buying one

Mine was going to be a temporary fix until i got around to mounting it under the truck.

OK, so I know I dragging this up from the dead, but, now I'm looking for a long-term update on this bracket set up you devised.

I just CANNOT stomach shelling out 250.00 to kilby for their bracket kit! It's just asinine that it would be priced that high.

Anyways, how's this rig holding up on your truck?

Thanks,
Buddy

I can't speak for cbbr, but he inspired me to do something similar. I've recently completed mine (well, I have some stuff I want to add) with some modifcations.

I purchased a york from a member here, with brackets included. I also picked up a small tank that used to be a part of an air compressor kit... no pump or motor, but it had the pressure switch, regulator and manifold. Instead of using ratchet straps, I made some clamps with some strips of aluminum as you can see in the pictures... what you see is basically my first test of the system and I've since cleanup a lot of the wires and connections, but you get the idea. I've got a rocker switch in the cab that matched the ARB locker rocker (hehe) which feeds power to the pressure switch.

I plan on adding another tank to the rear of the vehicle, not sure where yet. Then I might add quick disconnects in some, if not all of the wheel wells.

That's a pretty awesome project! Very nice!!

I still would like to hear from cbbr though on a long time report for his little bracket.

Come Awn cbbr!!!
