Ok, you might want to try waiting more than 55min 2sec!

Fittings should be a relative easy thing to get. Can you be more specific as to what you require? My compressor is plumbed with 1/2" pipe after which I a 1/4" IP coupling that allows my 3/8" hose to attach. Everything I required was purchased at Home Depot, but any hardware store will carry it.

He did wait longer than that.....it was 55 minutes and 3 seconds! LOL!Sorry, I couldn't help myself Kyle! [sm=joke.gif]


..... yes, as Kyle stated Home Depot or any hardware store will carry what you need. We bought the fittings for my brothers bag job on his 86 GMC 1/2 ton at Home Depot.

LOL yeah! I noticed I hit the wrong number after I submitted it, but I didn't feel like correcting it. I just love it when someone posts asking questions without even the most basic of information to attempt to help them, then gets impatient because people aren't falling over each other trying to answer the vague question.

Now looking at this, it is a compressor for an air suspension right? Well, seeing as how it is in the suspension section - to which I didn't even notice originally. So my response was about my air compressor in my garage - LOL.

As for what fittings to use for YOUR air suspension, well, use whatever you like, but I have to believe that these types of things are just as standardized as pretty much every other thing, but it will depend on the volume of air you need to move (size of the supply lines & fittings) and I would imagine how expensive of parts you want to get.

But yeah, we really need to know more information about what exactly you are trying to accomplish as well as what you already have, equipment wise, to accomplish it. Things like model numbers, etc, etc would be nice. We can't read your mind.

alright, haha. sorry i sounded like an ***, i was in a hurry to find the stuff so i could order it. i found the stuff at a local hardware store. it's a york engine driven compressor, which i think i'm going to end up selling anyway, because i've got an ls1 to drop in the s10.
