Okay, so I need a diagram or directions on what would be the cheapest and easiest way to wire up dual Viair 444c's. It's not my truck, but me and the owner had an incident today to say the least and I decided to be a nice guy and help him rewire up his compressors since he doesn't know anything about bagged trucks or wiring, and anything is better than the destroyed hack job he has now. (Full story of what happened today can be read in the Off Topic forum :haha
So it says on Viair's site that they pull 38 amps max, so is that each or both combined? Sorry if that's a stupid question. Lol
The guy is running these brand new chrome 444c's(that he supposedly paid $700 for the other day...:haha
thru a cheap distribution block that I'm assuming doesn't have a fuse, with a pull knob style switch on the dash, and he's obviously not running a pressure switch or even any guages, but I'll let him worry about that cuz he doesn't have the money to buy more than the wire and fuses(and airline that he needs now on top of the $30 he owes me for paying for a tow truck to tow him home.)
So would running 4g wire from the battery to the block, then split to 8g to each compressor with a 50 or 60 amp fuse between the block and each compressor be sufficient?
If this won't work, then don't be a dick to me, just suggest how I could do this better. I'm not very good with wiring, but like I said, his truck can't be any worse than it is now, and the guy has absolutly zero experience with bagged trucks since he's a JDM guy, so this is all up to me.
