OBA fever, rancho compressor work
ive notice OBA fever here on yotaech, and its got me thinking.
alright so the PO put rancho 9000's on my 4runner, but the shocks
were worn out. he also put the in cab controls with the aircompressor system.
now i wouldnt mind the shocks, but at $90 a pop im not buy em.
so i have this compressor and i was wondering if i could possibly set it up for OBA. now ive googled it, and i cant find any specs on the actually compressor.
Does anybody know any specs on the compressor or if this is even feasible?
i just planned on using the compressor to fill a tank mounted somewhere under the 4runner, and use the tank. really the air would be for quick use on one tire, ex. filling a low tire when im leaving for work and dont wanna bother fillling the one in the garage up.
so any ideas are welcome, and what you guys think

It is a pretty small compressor as it takes a good 10 seconds or so just to pump up the tiny air lines that control the shocks. I think it runs to up near 100 psi, but the volume is pretty small. You could always hook up your tank to it temporarily and see what it'll do.
You might try taking the worn shocks to some local 4x4 shops, they are supposed to have a lifetime warranty but you need to find a place that will exchange them w/o a receipt.

i tried to email rancho and they never got back to me, but that sounds like a good idea, i mean what could i lose with trying to replace them. you think it matters since i didnt actually own them, PO bought them?
same with the compressor, what do i have to lose. thx 4crawler
