I finally got "forced" to address the air ride system on my coach. today I went in to pump up the rear suspension, so that I can do some work around the black tank, only to discover that the system would not build up pressure. It turns out, I got a small pinhole rusted out in the air tank. That gave me an excuse to pull the tank and old trusty Dana compressor out. I have a brand new Viair 480C compressor sitting in the box patiently waiting for being married to my coach. Looks like the time has come to take care of that. I've seem some posts about using these compressors with and without air tanks on our coaches. Is there a preferred method? Benefits/drawbacks of going with and without tank. As far as a pressure cutoff switch - what pressure rating should I be looking for? Compressor is rated for 200 PSI, but the old tank is 150 PSI. That makes me think the entire air ride system is likely runs on much lower pressure.
I can weld the pinhole back, so that i can use the tank if needed, just trying to decide if there is a better way to go.
