Auto Transmission HTO query?

[Archive]

<font color = blue > It's been brought to my attention by Andy Perreault in another forum, that PTO driven air-compressors on tire service trucks which change flat tires on 18 wheelers are pretty common (in the USA). Only problem, I'm currently in Europe.

Do any TDR forum members/visitors know of any heavy truck servicing companies primarily in the Simi Valley, California area that either supply the industry or modify pickups into service trucks? I'll also consider further afield if there's no luck on my own doorstep.

Cheers

on the note of the electric compressor, you could install a Aerogen generator under the hood next to the alternator and it is capable of 6kw at any engine RPM, it is about $3k but would be a simple solution also, I think TST sells this kit, I know they are very reliable though, the military has decided they are good enough for their uses.
