Assistance Running Lockers and Wifey Kit

Hey so I’m in need of some assistance and hope someone on here has the insight or has ran this set up before.

So I have an arb twin compressor.

which I will be using to run my lockers but also bought the wifey kit from rago.

however I’m a bit confused because the set up for the wifey shows them running their own braided hose straight from the compressor to their manifold, like this:



But since I’m running lockers I need to incorporate the arb manifold:

So this is what I’m thinking....Run the arb braided hose From the compressor straight into the blue circle (inlet one of arb manifold) then run my locker solenoids off the red circles (obviously) and then run the wifey braided hose from the yellow circle (inlet 2?) straight the the wifey manifold.



would that work? Anyone have a better suggestion?

 

You can run the wifey kit before or after the ARB manifold. There's no real magic to the manifolds. You could not run the ARB manifold at all and just accomplish the same thing with the right fittings. The easiest way to add it in may be to just use that port on the wifey manifold that you aren't using next to the gauge, and just add a 90 from there to the ARB manifold. What's that blue fitting at the end of the wifey manifold?

 

Yes, that should be fine. It's just a reservoir tied to a reservoir.

 

so the wifey manifold has a shut off valve before the incoming port. So if i ran it before the arb manifold then I would need to always have that shutoff valve open.

 

Blue fitting is the sliding valve

 

Then yeah, if you don't want that system pressurized all the time your lockers are pressurized then run it to the ARB manifold first and put that shut off valve in between the ARB and Wifey manifolds.

 

I have the same Rago mount, with wifey block and wifey system. Are you enjoying having no access to the fuse box as much as I am?

I should have gotten the Slee and I would have been able to mount the wifey and ARB manifold to it, without losing access to the fuse box

 

thankfully i have not had a reason to go in there but If I ever do it’s gonna be a pain in the a$$

 

Why not tee off the arb and send one line to wifey and the other to the locker manifold, that way they can both call for air independently.

 

Yeah that’s what I ended up doing actually!

 

Skip the sliding valve and save yourself some money. Get a regular NPT ball valve. Works exactly the same

 

That slide valve (the one the wifey guy has in the parts list for doing the wifey system) is only like $9 on Amazon

Unfortunately, every one I received from Amazon failed to work so I had to go with a standard ball valve
