Hooking up a aux. compressor
A year ago, I executed exactly as Jeff described below. Has worked like a
pro. I mounted the compressor in the basement compartment just in front of
the LR wheel where the battery boilers uste to be housed. Ran a copper line
from there to Jeff's hook up point, and put a valve in the line by the
compressor so could run air tools off the compressor without airing up the
bus.
