I just found one of these still running. It has a slight knock but it still builds air PDQ. I have only found a small amount of information on these compressors on the mighty internet. Any information would be greatly appreciated!!

No, still in the attic. TV reception is great.

Still subscribed, still have FM issues!....for years now!

Wow! it HAS been a long time! Thanks for posting. I had forgotten about this thread. I can't answer your question but I can answer mine for anyone checking this thread. The "moan" was actually the cylinders themselves. The solution was to add a friction modifier that can be found at your local...

Tires are 255 45 17's on 8" rims. they are just over 10" wide. They will fir the original wheel wells with a little left for movement. Your challenge will be fining the correct back spacing for your rear. I hope to get to 11.5 inches with the outer tubs. Guy called yesterday and said he had the...

I've cut one side out already so I'm committed....or need to be committed! I have had the metal rolled but haven't picked them up yet. Weather is bad here for a few days so it will be a while. The good panels are from EMS. I used Mac's panels for the floor pans and they were pretty crude. They...

WOW, you've been roll'n on that thing! I'll get you the info on the wheels asap (I forgot). If you had the same width rear, I'd make you a killer deal on my brand new wheels and tires that would fit. I've decided to tub the outer wheel houses on mine...for bigger tires and wheels. The old girl...

I had a time finding the right wheel and tire combo to fit the stock wheel wells. I can get you that info if you like. (I forgot off hand and I'm in for the night). Anyway, I got a wild hair today and went ahead and cut for tubbing the outer wheel house! I should be able to go to a 10" x 17...

I feel your pain! I don't know if I'll ever get finished!

Sa-weet!

Look'n good! :thumbup:

Just foud your thread. Looks GREAT! When I built here there was nothing around. Now houses with HOA.....but I'm not a part of it and do as I please! I've got this post on notification!:thumbup:

I did the back corner like you are thinking. Mine is enclosed so there is storage below and the door keeps the heat downstairs. You are doing 48' so the stairs will not effect your third car from the side, if yours is configured like mine. I do like the way mine is set up, door wise. The stairs...

Ed, I pumped the pooch on that answer. Long shift! it should be that it would have been better 30x45-6 feet....Or even 48!! That sounds great! Pictures??:thumbup:

Hi Ed, I am at work tonight (FD) I'll get that measurement for you tomorrow. The stairs are a mixed blessing. Wide enough that I get most anything up but they do take up some space on the ground floor. The space below is utilized as compressor room/storage/potty room. I would go 5-5 feet longer...
