TDR Volunteer in Dallas/Ft. Worth Texas area?

[SmokinJoe]

Anyone want to help us get Brad's air compressor development for our diesels off the ground?



He is looking for Cummins owners in the Dallas/Ft. Worth Texas area willing to lend their vehicle for the development of a OBA bracket kit. He would like a 24-valve model rig with AC. He will be out of town until Sunday, so don't get in a yank.



If anyone is interested, please contact Brad at this address : -- email address removed --



Here is the web site : http://www.onboardair.com/





Large displacement, heavy-duty compressors. Unlimited air source. That's the York EF210 series compressor. Large 10 cu. in. displacement fills tires fast. Real fast! Rated at 4 CFM at 90 psi while running at 1200 rpm. Running air tools isn't a problem anymore with this on board air compressor!

Kilby Enterprises carries only the large 10. 3 cu. in. displacement Yorks with the Flange Head. The clutches are double V-groove units that work correctly with our mounting brackets.

Smokin Joe,



I've seen his web site and have plans to purchase the serpentine clutch for a York compressor. Does he have any plans to fabricate a bracket that will mount in the factory location of a

chevy 350 TBI motor? He has one on his web site, but it mounted

on the other side of the alternator.

I do not know. All I am hoping for is that someone in the area can allow him to get a package ready for us CTD users. I am waiting on this kit so I can mount my air horns...

I hope I can find a member in the area that will support this cause. I really do want a high volume pump for the horns!

I do not know how long. I am just the messanger. Since I got my truck last spring I have been in correspondence with Brad. I hope something works out.



BTW is your 98 a 12 or 24 valve?

 

[Mark_Kendrick]

I sent him an email and left a message . . so hopefully it'll work out.



Thanks,

I agree! If you are in the area maybe you can volunteer your truck. I think a LOT of guys with diesels will want that air pump setup.

Update...

I dropped off my truck at the manufacturer's shop yesterday. He gave me a ride to the airport.



With a little luck they'll be able to fit the compressor on. It's really tight. I talked to the guy and I think he'll probably mount it above the alternator. He was pretty knowledgable and wanted a ride when I get back friday. He was amazed that anyone could get over 400 hp out of our 6's.



Hopefully they'll have brackets available for sale through On-Board-Air soon. My dad is picking me up and dropping off his PSD so they can do the same for PHords

Then next week I'll pick his bus... i mean truck... up and drive it back to Tulsa. 300 miles in the Titanic but it rides like a car



Now all I need is an Air-Ride system..... where did she hide my wallet



Later, I have surfing to do... ... .....

 

[Thomas]

Whatever happened to this? Update?

 

[Mark_Kendrick]

I have the onboard air installed on the motor. . sweet kit. very easy. I have not had time to plumb the rest of the truck and mount the tank yet. when it's finished I'll let you know. It'll probably be after Muncie though.

 

[Thomas]

Pictures of the bracket/compressor/belt would be great!



The tank, electrical, and plumbing should be pretty straight-forward but time-consuming

 

[JR2]

Mark - how about a pic of the compressor??
