    Just checked. From what I can figured out from the wiring diagram ARB provides the relay only applies to the compressor(which I just have connected to the battery. Should be able to get away with out using one.

    And I'm losing all mu quick disconnects for my OBA. Air leaks and flips my compressor on too much and kills my battery

    Why not just redo the fittings? The quick disconnects shouldn't leak if they are done up right.

    After doing some of my homework and doing some more craigslist searching I'm hating life right now. If I only had an extra $3k right now ( $1.5k for the mustang with 5.0 and auto, $500 for the adapater, and the last $1k for the misc parts/adapters) then I could drop a 5.0 w/ auto in my 4Runner. Add another thousand to it and I could do a solid axle swap also.

    Damn I need a rich relative to die off and leave me some money! I don't think I could make enough off any of the parts that I would be removing to off set much of the cost. My 22RE is hurting, the transmission is ok, and I'm keeping the transfer case. Hmmm what else can I sell?

    My plasma is too diluted with alcohol and my kidneys I really need. :D

    I just put some stuff that was taking up room in the shop on CL; hope to get some cash together for 4.7s before HF in November.

    I'm hoping but not real sure. If I can sell the stuff I have on CL and get a few more GI Bill checks in then I'll be in good shape. That just won't leave me very long for getting it installed.

    I would also like about $3000 to do some things to my truck. Even with thought on going back to stock my wish list is front CBI bumper with winch and LED light bar. Then have them build a custom swing away tire carrier that has 2 gates. I want it to hold tire, jack, and some rotopax fuel cells.
    Then a roof rack with another LED light bar and some rear facing lights for around camp.
    After typing that out I probably need closer to $4000 for that.

    I'm curious to see what all you do and in what order when you get your expo rig.

    I'm still not 100% sure I'm going to get rid of my truck or put it to stock.

    That is a tough call. You have a pretty nice rig as it is; and there is a lot to be said for the reliability of it. An older rig will have its issues that you will have to deal with.


    I know I'm not helping... :D

    Ya I know. It was bitch to find the right British to American adapters for the air system.

    And I was debating how to rig it all.
