Viair Is Officially The Best Company I Have Ever Dealt With. I Just Got Off The Phone With Lance Ordering My Rebuild Kits For Two Very Old Very Beat 450c's And I Have To Say He Is The Most Knowledgeable Friendly Person I Have Ever Dealt With. I Have Been Working In The Motrocycle Industry For Years, And If Everyone Was As Easy To Deal With As Lance My Job Would Be Easy As Cake. Huge Thumbs Up For Lance And Viair, I Will Never Deal With Another Compressor As Long As I Live!!!
Viair Is Awesome!!!

When was the last time you followed up?
PM me with what you need, and a mailing address - I'll go grab the parts and send by US Mail. I sent out a bunch of free parts this morning to various persons, but they have to keep at me to make sure I'm getting the parts out the door for them.
Unfortunately, I can't remember everything - and I make mistakes just like anyone else. Freebies are the last thing I ever try to get done while at work, as you can understand I'm sure.
Thanks for the positive feedback from everyone. I dig this forum, and always try to do my best to help out whenever possible. I've been there, stuck without a way to drive my truck before... It blows. Having someone help you out is about the best thing in the world when you're otherwise S.O.L.

How many gallons? The 380Cs really need to work as a pair if you're storing 5 to 7 gallons. Plus, their amp draw is really low considering you're running two 200 PSI compressors. Get your 380C a buddy ASAP! -You will be able to extend the life of your existing single unit by double...

If the pump is less than a year old, it can be inspected under warranty. It may also be covered by warranty, depending on what it wrong with the unit. If out of warranty, you can still send it in, but there will be an inspection fee, plus any parts needed to restore it to acceptable operating specifications.
We don't sell rebuild kits, since that may cause you to buy parts you don't really need. If you do know what is wrong with the unit, PM me with the parts you need and I'll let you know a price.
lance,
just got the comps back together, and back on the truck, not upsidedown anymore YAY!! and they work great! i had no idea how slow they were before till i rebuilt them. Also i think all my tank air was leaking back through the compressors overnight, because now that i know i have working check valves i come out in the morning and have lost almost no pressure. i used to be at zero every morning after putting it away around 120-140

5 gallon , 1 380C right now, got a front bag kit from kris dye, my 6" drop up front rode like crap, bottomed out and ive always wanted air ride so i decided to just buy the kit and build off it.
moved my tank and compressor under the bed and now my right bag leaks and so does the tank, only thing i changed was putting 2 90* fittings on the tank and 2 ptc smc unions to extend the line.
replacing both front bags due to rubbing them (didnt cut pocket enough DOH) hoping its just one of the ptc wasnt pushed all the way in or something.
thinking of going with 2 480s cause id like more play time and im only front bagged. the 380C is always on, rarely shuts off

Scootch, all I can think of is that you have a crappy ground. Please check, and/or re-do the grounds. Hesitant operation like that is almost always a grounding problem/issue.
