Hey guys,
Just finished mounting a York 210 onto my 1HDT HDJ80 (while retaining factory A/C) and have installed a 6L tank into the rear quarter panel. I'm now looking at options for inflating the tyres...
Question is, If i have a regulator connected to the tank and set with an output pressure of say 45psi how much slower would it fill the tyre compared to no inline regulator and using a manual tyre inflator? Like does having a regulator mean that the air flow drops as it approaches the regulators set pressure?
I was thinking about running a line/port to each corner of the vehicle then having 4 short air lines with the locking auto fill latches things. If i have 4 regulators connected to the tank (on different ports so no bottleneck) to each of those 4 lines i should be able to simultaneously fill 4 tyres. My theory is by the time i finish attaching the 4th tyre the first should be full?
I like the idea of having the regular mounted in the cab meaning the air hose is just a basic hose with a simple fitting. Cheap to replace as they wear, wont be worried about dirt/mud and a fill time of less than 5 minutes. No more standing around in the rain after a long day...
Cheers,
