I'm thinking about the same thing. Firewood on the accelerator it a bit hokey as a idle adjuster. In fact, I started a thread that you might be interested in.

meh you'd just have to get it evacuated, then remove all the stuff you don't need/want from the vehicle.

All you'd need is the compressor and maybe the condendser (to intercool the air and condense the moisture out of it) the rest of the a/c system is not required for OBA.

Yep, like 86 said... if it was originally equipped with A/C I'd make it work again. Then I'd have no OBA!

Basically, I tried to do it as clean at Toyota would have. I've used it now on several occasions - it's great! For trail trucks, build a skid or use a trio of smaller tanks that can be mounted higher. Everything else is slick.

Looks nice! Of course this is where I add you to my little black book of folks I don't talk to because they have more goodies than I do.

Lets see... *open black book, turn to page 1 under A for Air, onboard*..... Add noltz under Matt16.... *close book and glare at the computer*

Just kidding...... not, no really I'm kidding.......... nope still jealous......

yea im def doing this to the trail rig ive been gathering parts.. im gonna put the air tank from an old compressor in the back of the 4runner... cuz its gets wheeled... i figure if i can use the a/dc button to turn on the pump that would be ok... inline oiler and pressure switch ill need to grab... might be able to get one on a compressor form work and just take the compressor motor off.. use the dual tanks with pressure switch.

Doesn't it constantly run on the belt and build pressure whenever the truck is running? How do you get rid of the excess pressure?

The AC compressor has a clutch that engages and disengages depending on the pressure.
