I buy the Air Lift kit from @Grant@Funcowith their upgrades. Piecing a kit together to save a few $$ will not be worth it in the long run. Done it twice for clients.

Im not sure it would be able to seat a bead, but it adds air to tires quite well. I have a 200 Lb pressure cutoff in the tank to shut off the compressor. i used the Vital Air switch (Amazon), & a single compressor. I wired in a toggle switch inline to where it says "keyed power source". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine has horseshoe shaped bands that secure it to the floor with #10 Stainless hardware (because I had it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I saw a post where nutserts were used in the tank. The air tank has brackets welded to it but I cut them off so it will fit under the front passenger seat. I use large long zip ties to hold the tank to the front mount for the seat. It's not structural, it's not heavy. Zip ties are fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
