Awesome mate this video just confirmed my thoughts on using an unloader valve. Im still going to run a check valve between compressor and tank but no need to sort out a unloader.
sweet! This is definitely on my list now. I'd love to see a video of where you install the compressor and tank in the colorado. I'm debating between putting both underneath the bed or putting the compressor in the bedside and the tank underneath the bed. Curious to see which route you go.
Very helpful just finished all 3 videos you've put out and think ima buy a kings thumper compressor and hook up a tank instead of an arb. Save several hundred dollars haha
5:17 What beauty is that right behind your right ear and that fox or raccoon tail there. Can you please share the make and model of that thing I think I fell in love
Badland Industries yea, I’ve heard a couple people have done it. Just looking for more info to determine if it’s the route I wanna take. I would think more people would use them but so few are I worry there’s some issues I’m not seeing. I’ve got one in my 2wd LS swap and I love it cuz it’s so sturdy. The goal is a awd turbodiesel. Dig all the canyon content 🤙🏼 thanks
Weird mine has no trouble running up to 120 psi. But the output goes down as the psi goes up. As do ALL air compressors. I did a amp draw test on the whole 0-120psi cycle and one can see the draw is highest then drops off as pressure increases and output decreases. I have an idea to build a high output 12v compressor that does 10ish cfm at 100cfm continuous duty. Just have to gather all the parts and fabricate it all. Oh and find time haha
Useful video. Is there anything stopping someone taking a silent compressor - like the shop ones that come on wheels - and installing that in a vehicle? Assuming you can separate the tank from the compressor and route some air hose around the place.
The power demand is a big limiting factor. The home style typically draw more than a 2000w inverter can provide. And those are pretty big. So one has to buy a huge Inverter and install huge 2/0 power cables to run it in addition to the compressor.
@@BadlandIndustries Yes technically true...but at the same time the energy created by the alternator makes it pretty negligible and hidden from all but the nerdiest of off readers which there's very few of us haha

Really enjoyed all the detail!

It'll get on there at some point. I have a few projects ahead of that.

How much will the kings cost to import?
@@BadlandIndustries not sure yet. But I'll definitely put my final cost when I purchase it.
@@TheFlyingSquidwithMagical do you plan on buying the mk2 or the mk1?
@@BadlandIndustries mk2. However I have just learned that the shipping company they use aren't shipping internationally right now. So nvm that I guess
@@TheFlyingSquidwithMagical that sucks

May man, the 6.0l build sounds epic. I have one request! I want to 4l80e swap my 4x4 but the info I’ve found so far looks pretty tricky.
Couple guys have done it. I wouldn't worry about it until you swap.

How hard would it be to wire the power switch to another panel in my truck bed?
Only as had as running the wire.
Useful video. Is there anything stopping someone taking a silent compressor - like the shop ones that come on wheels - and installing that in a vehicle? Assuming you can separate the tank from the compressor and route some air hose around the place.
That would largely depend on the source voltage. The maxi trac compressor is quite similar to my California air tools compressor you see behind me.
The power demand is a big limiting factor. The home style typically draw more than a 2000w inverter can provide. And those are pretty big. So one has to buy a huge Inverter and install huge 2/0 power cables to run it in addition to the compressor.
Nevermind the efficiency loss converting to AC.

Those reed valves aren't gonna like holding that pressure indefinitely.
Consider a check valve.
Check valve is inline
you could have left the pressure switch back at the compressor
True, I wanted the pressure on the tank since I had hoped to include a bleed off valve on the compressor.
