Air Drier installation - Stephen H - 10-30-2006 11:23
My bird did not come with an air drier. I decided to install one and
purchased a Meritor-Wabco air drier to install, due to the small
size, weight, and easy spin-on cartridge.
I figured at this same time, I would go ahead and replace the
compressor D-2 Governor and compressor filter.
The D-2 control port (cutout) is 1/8" NPT,
The Air Drier Port 4 (control) is 1/4" - 18 NPTF.
Here is my question. What type of hose/tubing would be suitabile for
connection from my governor to my drier; and what recommended size?
Where would I get this tubing? I can work out the connections with
adapters, I understand that. Im just not sure about tubing. I would
assume it would be a black plastic tubing. I have serched e-bay for
tubing, but it is difficult when I dont know what type to serch for.
NEXT- I will need to connect my drier to the wet tank. The
connection on the drier says:
Port 21 (delivery): 1/2" - 14 NPTF.
I have seen the existing braided stainless line coming from the
compressor going to wet tank now. Would just need a short peice to
go from drier to wet tank; what about this line? Does it need to be
stainless braided as well? What type/size? E-bay? It's easier for me
to shop online, than to take time away from work to drive around
and look for this stuff!
Thanks all for your help! Getting the old bird ready to drive to Ft-
Desoto Park for Thanksgiving!!
