Does anyone know the measurments on Jason's air tank. And can anyone tell me what are the best air gauges to buy.


Thanks,

12 gallon is 12x44. 5 gallon is 10x20.

i have easy street guages, they are good. but it depends on what kind of pressure u are going to be running, kp has guages that o to 200 psi, and airlift should be coming out with some as well.

There are no 'best gauges', just like there's no 'best setup'. Its all a matter of preference and what you want. There are tons of companies that make gauges, so its just a matter at lookin at 'em and deciding what you want in your truck. Heres a suggestion tho... find a local trucker supply store and go there and see if they sell back lit gauges

 

[Peanut99]

well what do you have for gauges?

For gauges, I can strongly recommend that you do NOT buy Viair guages. Ive had a 50% failure rate with them, and I will no longer install them.

Easy Streets are in the pewter s10 I just finished, they are very good quality, but the numbering is weird, its maked every 7.5 psi :shrug:

Larry has soem whiteface industrial gauges that he sells at a very low price, I use those a bit with no rpoblems.

do you know the web sites ?

i have a set of dakota digital gauges that i love, i had an easy street single gauge in before and it started to have a small leak in it

for my gauges i wunt to be able to make my truck go to different height's.I dont wunt it just going up and down for just to height's should i get a controller with 10 switches or does anyone know any kind of gauge that u can let as much air in and as much air out as you wun't ?

Gauges only show you the pressure in the bags... you can't tell the gauge to make the truck go to a certain height. If you are looking for an automatic ride leveling and adjustment system, look to spend anywhere from 400-800$ on one. Dakota Digital makes one, and ART has a new one coming out at the beginning of next year I beleive.

My gauges are made by Clark Brothers. They are backlit, 2" gauges that read from 0 - 150 PSI. Two dual needles, and one single need gauge. They all come from a trucker supply store, but I got mine on eBay. $11 shipped for 4 gauges, then I sold the extra for $25 bucks, so I got 'em all for free, + some

i use air ride digital gauges nice tolook at easy to install. I think the self leveling kits go for like 1900 if im not mistaken.

Why do I always get the shit that people have problems with?:soap: Well my viair gauges have worked fine for me so far.

Dakota's Air Ride ARC1004 controller is only 795 Retail.
ART's controller introduced at SEMA is going to be around $400 retail.

I thought it was more thats not a bad price at all.

I'm gonna agree that the Viair gauges are shit. On my rear dual needle, one side doesn't even work and never worked. Air just leaks everywhere.

 

[Peanut99]

well would it be good to get gauges and a contoller would that give me lots od positions like the 10 switch box?

 

[SlammedDime]

just get some gauges, and the 10 switch box, and you'll be all set.
