So I can help a bit on this with the outside air ride knowledge with the modern stuff. I’ve built a few frame up trucks with full air ride suspension.
Scott as far as the 2 pumps go. Yes it will work and that’s how the original setup runs. I would run a tank. Like you said if the pumps go nuclear and no longer work a tank that’s rated at 200psi will get you far and if you add a schrader valve you can add air from anywhere. Most compressors for low riders(unless you’re thinking about hydraulics)are 150psi unless you go the engine driven route(York210) which will get you 180psi. If you run check valves in the right places the tank and the pumps will never let you down.
