    Dash Command is the equivalent.
    There's a few others but thats what I have on my iPad.


    ** Just remember you have to have an OBD2 sensor.
    I bought mine off Amazon, its a Chinese version but works great.
    But it ties in all the gps and ecu data.

    That's not a bad idea to have the RTT over the cab. Pics of the mounting setup when you return!

    :help:quick question? i a have a 2001 3.4 6v taco and i installed a 24v ARB air compresor but it is only running the compressor on 12V (1/2 power) because the truck is 12v. so my question is what wiring will i need to run dual 12v batteries to get 24v in the ARB and 12 volts into the truck. i have the batteries and ware i want to mount them but i am having a hard time understanding how to wire them up and what parts i need.
    thanks for all the help.

    Should just need a step up transformer just for the compressor.

    By all mean get dual batteries. Good for lots of stuff. But wiring them together for 24v isn't worth it. Just get a transformer for the compressor. And then run dual batteries in isolation with the ability to link them for tasks such as winching and self jumping.

    Would be a pain to rewire everything down to 12 v.

    Check out dual battery setups to see what I mean. Then just get the transformer.
