valve placement?

[green97nissan]

i wanna kno where everyone put there valves mabey pics if u got em:thumb:

and how much did all ur fittings run yall?

[Scrappy]

I had a bagged s10 a few years ago and I bought a manifold with 8 valves and it was really nice....

1 line in and 4 out it even had the openings for gauges but i didn't use them.

[green97nissan]

well i already got 4 3/8 valves soo im already comitted to that way

[syk1]

i put 2 behind the front bumper for the front and 2 off of the frame in the rear for the rear.

[broke$tatu$>tek]

all mine are behind the roll pan..
in 2 sets of 4

[ScottXGTR]

all mine are in the bed, under the tonneau

and fittings ran quite a bit. but i have 8 valves, 2 comps, air horn, etc. they do end up costing around $150-200 by the time all is said and done.

[kuffm3]

i got mine under the bed bolted to the bed support i used more fittings but it looks clean all you see is 4 small lines a tank and the bulkheads no wires at all

[green97nissan]

im really liking the valves up front behind the bumper but im planin on runin 8 valves all together so would four fit fine up front.

and should i just buy everythang else to bag my truck then buy the fittings last after everythangs built cuz i have no clue on what fittings to buy

i put 2 behind the front bumper for the front and 2 off of the frame in the rear for the rear.

i dont know how much room the hb has up there but im pretty sure you can find a way to fit them

and should i just buy everythang else to bag my truck then buy the fittings last after everythangs built cuz i have no clue on what fittings to buy

i would say hold off to buy them or draw out a diagrahm so that you can see where a fitting should go.

so all ur runin is 4 valves all together:(?! hows it handle?

as far as just front and back i liked it for awhile but i am going to buy 4 more so that i can at least adjust the front cause the passenger side lifts first before the driver. hope that helps

you said u had 4 3/8 valves, use them for the dump valves and run 4 1/2 for fills, the valves for the rear are mounted to the tank, and the front valves are along the frame under the passenger compartment, alltogether i spent about $250 for lines and all the fittings, cause i had all 3/8s, then i changed the fills to 1/2"

[lolyfe]

under the cab mounted to the floor

that sounds like a good idea do u know of any videos of a set up like urs cuz i wanna see how fast it will pop up

[97xenissan]

under the cab mounted to the floor
no they are mounted to the side of the frame, at a full tank @200 psi, the front will get about 3" off the ground (i didnt measure it stood out side and hit the switch so its a guesstimate) you can search on youtube and get an idea. i would upload a video but i dont have a video cam.

cant u buy sumthin so it will control the air so it wont bounce

[zach]

easiest way to figure out what fittings you need is to draw a diagram such as the one on this page, only this one is for an edc, its just an example. http://infamousnissan.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1055 (http://infamousnissan.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1055)

i think you can get a type of slow down that goes inline before the valve

[red`94]

yes you can get fill and dump control valves to control the speed.

ive got stainless needle valves in my set up behind the fill valves, they are 40$ a piece but they are very accurate and fully adjustable.

Where did you find your manifold?

[lilFlip]

My fronts are on the frame right below the passenger and drivers doors and my rears are next to the tank on the back.

I'll get some pics later today.

I moved my battery under the bed my valves for the front are behind the headlights. In the back my frame is my air tank so they just come out of the sides of the notches right off the frame. I used the poweraire.com fittings it cost me about 50$ to do the whole truck.

When i had 4 valves on my bodydropped s10 going around turns semi low i would drag the rockers until i put the sway bar on then it wasnt too bad but 8 valves is way better for handling than 4 but 4 works.
