the easiest way is to draw everything out; all the tanks, compressors valves and bags on a sheet of paper.

then if you dont know what NPT sizes all the holes are, take one of everything with you. then just explain to the guy what you are trying to do. They are used to working with that kind of stuff so they are usually more than willing to help you out.

no matter how much you think you got everything, you will probably have to go back again.

i had to go 3 times. Also ask if they take stuff back.

Just dont be surprized if you miss something the first time!

well does anyone know what the npt sizes are on the smc valves?? 1/2s and 3/8s also on the airlift bags 2b6s

1/2 = 1/2 npt fitting. 3/8 = 3/8 npt fitting.....

sounds like you bought jason's front kit.
You're gonna need 1/2" npt for your fill valves and 3/8" for your dumps. and a 1/2" - 1/4" reducer for your compressor and a 1/2"-1/8" for your pressure switch. and don't forget the 1/2" plugs for the ports you don't use.
