Hamsters in a Kia Soul?????



Mike.

Ugh. I hope not. Seems the Kia's won't move without some kind of funky music playing. Hear it at every stop light. Do they have to have that to make the Hamsters dance so it'll move?!?!? Makes me want to dance, and that just wears me out... ..... It's not too bad in my '97, it idles so loud, and the dual 4" straights kinda muffle it out. Also makes the drivers roll up their windows so I can't hear it.

You can buy the mounting kit from Kilby and then source everything else from your choice of suppliers.

ke-3100 kit.

If you had a 6. 7L I've put together a mounting kit do mount a York pump on them.

I would like to see that setup for putting a York on a 6. 7. I had one on my '02 and loved it, really miss it.

i put together my onboard air system using a york pump and fabbing my own brackets. Combo pully from Kilby, compressor from junk yard, belts from fleetpride, the rest was just fab work really. The only thing i don't like about my setup is it's really a pita to check to oil in the compressor and even more of a pita to add oil. If anyone knows of any solutions for the oil issue, any insight would be greatly appreciated.

I designed and built a system for my 2011 that uses a York 209SC (mini 209) pump.

n7gxz, I like that!! Nice, clean looking. Just a mount and a longer serpentine belt? Very nice.

 

[timelessconstructionllc]

wow, i wish that was possible on the 5. 9s. Fabbing the brackets for the alternator and compressor was kindof a pita to get the pulleys lined up. Anyone know of any tricks for lining up pulleys, to me the front of the engine and the pulleys can be very decieving when it comes to trying to line them up.

 

[n7gxz]

I just did it by eye with a belt routed over the pulleys.
