Thought I'd share with the world my OBA setup. Its not too much different than ones I've seen, but I've also done some original things as well (at least I think so....). I know the system is a little bulkier than it needs to be, but I started making this because I thought I could build it almost entirely from parts I had around. My dad gave me an old compressor, so I got the pressure switch, check valve, and a ton of fittings from that. I also had a box of misc air/plumbing fittings sitting on the shelf so I started with that. I probably spent more that I really wanted to, but I'm happy with the system as a whole. i'm running a 4.8 gallon tank I got off ebay. It's from a millitary truck and its a great size (7" diameter, 29" long) with 4 ports on it. I'm going to be building a new bumper around it. I'll probably get a VAIR switch in the future, and maybe change some other stuff around, but I love where the system sits in the engine compartment because it doesnt take up any needed space. I'll be running 4 air horns on a regulated line as well as quick connects front and rear. So here's the pics. I'm not including a parts list because I didn't exactly use the least amount of parts possible and I didn't buy all my parts at the store, so I'm not sure exactly what all I have. I could provide a rough one if anyone wants, but others have done that, so check out some other threads too.
