It just seemed like a nice edition to a garage, just curious who has em and what kind of air compressor you use? Taking off my shocks today I found out somone had way over torqued one and that pain in the butt made me think about gettin one again... Im looking for something small anyone find anything to that description? P.S. Price you payed would be nice to see
 Thanks |

I got a Husky set, which works well. The compressor is a Husky, 17 gallon, 5 hp I think. It makes 5.1 cfm at 90 psi. You don't want anything less than 5 cfm at 90 psi.
Also, if you're having trouble braking nuts and bolts loose, get a breaker bar. Often time I come into bolts that the impact won't budge, and then I get that out. Plus they're a lot cheaper. An impact wrech is a tool that looks like a big gun and connects to an air hose. You attach sockets to the end of it and it's a strong tool for breaking nuts and bolts loose. And tightening them up. -Doc This post has been edited by raven_101: May 22, 2005 - 7:07 PM -------------------- -Dr Tweak, 6GC's resident engine swap wiring expert extraordinaire Click here to see my swaps drtweak@phoenixtuning.com |
