    Well I haven't had much updates in my truck lately.:playball: I fucked up my tailgate and tail lights so those are getting replaced.:bananadead: My newest mod is in the making as we speak. Here's a little sneak peak :D Stay tuned for the updates as I piece this OBA system together as cheap as I possible can. Harbor Freight here I come!

    I know it's not the best or most powerful but what a great deal I couldn't resist. :goingcrazy:IMG_5379.jpg

    Got a few pieces put together tonight. Probably will install the whole system tomorrow.

    Note: it's better to use all brass so nothing rusts or corrodes but I'm doing this on a Budget and just using what I have from what I bought. Also there is no need to buy the swivel connector. I just wanted that.

    First I had to take the rubber feet out and replace them with bolts.

    Then I threw a few of these connectors together with how I think they should work. Also I did use PTFE thread seal tape on all adapter threads except for the outlets so far.

    The washer is just for me to know that that's where the mounting location will be. This outlet will be for the front of the truck.

    And this washer is also to show he mounting location. This will be the outlet for the rear of the truck.

    Yes sir! Go to http://mcmaster.com/ and search for part number 8063K37

    When you get it take the cap off and the valve core.
