    8.5" fronts 9.5" rears

    I also completely changed where my compressors are mounted. Taking apart my rear parcel shelf is a pain and I realized it would be an awful spot for compressors if I ever wanted to service them. Soooo..... heres where they ended up.

      Wheels went on pre-order today. I was going to wait for tax returns but.... free shipping is tempting.

          Thanks man, I'm working on better pictures. My photographer buddy will be taking photos of the finished trunk shortly.

          I feel like I let everyone down when all I have is crap iPhone pics.

            Got some more parts in and finally started hooking up some air line to the manifold.





            Basically all of the fittings I'll be using...



            I will be running the front lines through the car and the rear lines through two bulk heads in the trunk, hence why the lines face the way they do.



            My Dakota, cannot wait to mount this thing in the dash.



            Got the Dorbritz sway bar brackets...

              A little more progress today...

              Got my Airlift rear struts...



              Finally put the water traps and tank sensors on, the large round sensor is for the Dakota gauge, the smaller sensor is for the Accuair management.





              And a few shots of my messy room in my new apartment...

                      Thank you

                      I was working on the wiring and a few more fittings last night. I secured the power distribution block and grounding distribution block. I also secured the relay the Accuair came with.







                      I also extended some of the grounding wires to reach the distribution block and I created a little grounding harness for the Dakota pressure senders.



                      The ground harness tucks behind the VU4 nicely.






                      It's coming along slowly but surely now that I have a little space to work

                              Thanks for taking the time to put all the info up there. It really is a lot of help for those of us planning out a build. Great ideas.

                              I have an idea to make it look cleaner. You can route those ground lines from the pressure senders down under the sensors and along the air lines to hide them. Then you can either tuck them under the Vu4 unit or split them on either side. Just an idea.
