SureSet air pump install

This is my SureSet by Air Lift install on 2006 Tacoma 4X4.

I put some Air Lift bags on my Tacoma less than a month after I bought it in 2006. While looking at the truck before purchasing it new I saw the three leaf springs and told the salesman there would be a TSB down the road. I did tow a boat/trailer in the 3K pound range as well as made numerous trips to Lowes or home Depot for weekend projects, sometimes with hundreds of pounds of load.

I soon got tired of the bicycle pump routine so I bought the SureSet pump kit. Well nine years later I finally found the time to install it.

Here is the install. I decided to utilize the storage compartments in the bed.

The pump and regulator on the passenger side and the relay and controller on the other. I might move the controller to inside the cab one day. After nine years I pretty much know the PSI needed for any particular load. A 900 pound load needs 65 PSI to level for example.

I have seen some really cool and way better installs in the engine compartment. I just didn’t have access to any fabricating equipment when I did this.

The controller swivels out to read the display then back in to close the hatch. I left plenty of wiring slack on both sides so the compartments can be pulled out for any work.

attached are pictures.

That looks.. awesome...any issues with moisture In those compartments? ?

 

Thanks, I will find out! I put B sealant (dries to a soft gel and easily removed) on the relay connections and covered the controller with a zip tied plastic bag.

 

I wanted to update the moisture question. I have observed the controller module dripping wet with condensation during wet weather. I recently took it apart and it was dry and clean inside.
However the inline barrel fuse developed some corrosion and caused the controller to lose power intermittently. I will replace this with a moisture proof blade type fuse soon.
