anybody have part #'s for these things? thinking that i really need one . all the yards that i've called have demanded application and part #, which i understand is normal, but very annoying. just wondering.



thanks

What are you going to do with power steering and vaccum pumps?

 

[swankmetal]

my understanding is that the shaft transfers through, and those mount to the back of the pump.

Looking at a unit made by Oasis Mfg, re:

I think it would be more practical to have a electrically powered unit for my needs.

I have the onboardair belt driven compressor with a 6 gallon tank and it works great.

I also have the Onboard Air, but i don't think Kilby makes it for a 12 valve. Mine works great. The problem with the factory air compressor is the vacuum and p/s pump. There is a room problem at the motor mount. If you run an electric vacuum pump and a small p/s pump with a remote reservior it should work. I was going to do it, but the Onboard Air was tons cheaper and easier.
