Re: Airing Grievances Reply #26 – October 09, 2017, 11:57:14 am Jim, I still have the OEM exhaust system. Some day it will get replaced but in the 2001 a new storage bay fit quite nicely. It might fit in yours too. It is very handy space. A New Storage BayRogerMore...Like QuoteThink your compressor will fit in this space. Quote Selected
Re: Airing Grievances Reply #27 – October 09, 2017, 12:01:04 pm I think that Glen could have used the air hose connection to fill his tires. . . If one wants to, can't everyone all fill our tires to about 100-110 psi with coach air? Sure it is a pain, because the wet tank psi will not refill until the governor kicks the compressor back on. And with tires at 95 psi and wet tank at 95 it is a stalemate. At each 'stalemate' one does need to remove air chuck and deplete the wet tank remaining pressure (into the atmosphere) to below approx. 90 psi at which time compressor will start pumping again. The problem many have is that some air chucks are 'closed' and only open when on tire valve, but there are 'open' air chucks that do not have to have their center pressed to flow air. Couple an 'open' air chuck with an air filler squeeze handle, remove from tire valve, squeeze, wait to compressor kicks on, put back on tire and continue filling, repeat as necessary. This works fine, but does need engine to be running and some planning to have the right parts.We have several air filler parts all terminated with 'quick connects' so we can quickly build our filler needs for the air source we are using. This includes dial air gauge, chucks of different types, squeeze handles and a very long coiled air hose made from plastic air brake line (hose does not take up much space when coiled up for storage).Here is quote from Google about types of air chucks:"1. They both will activate the schrader valve in the valve stem.2. The "closed" is one with a valve, you can hook it directly to an airline for inflating.Push it on, it depresses the schrader, and turns on the air.3. The "open" is purely open, you can blow thru it (my supplier does it to sort them out)" Quote Selected

If I was going to have only on this would be it. Light, quiet, much easier to carry than a pancake compressor, higher pressure, good air volume works standing up or on its back (12.5" high that way).There are always other choices. I like this one.

Cruzer (aka Mark Quasius) on iRV2 has some good info Hadley Air System - Page 2 - iRV2 ForumsDifference in leveling systems - iRV2 Forums.No, wasn't SMC... will look on the Country Coach forums as I'm thinking it was with the Intrigue we had and not the Foretravel... it was a great doubler, solid and well built. Hoping somewhere along the line I posted something about it on those forums. Quote Selected
