John,
You should have some sort of Truck Stop shop around your area.=C2=A0 Take y=
ou old piece there, and know what length you want, and ask them what they h=
ave like that for air brakes.
The Bricklin uses that to lift the the doors (about 100# ea).=C2=A0 You onb=
oard compressors use a pressure switch that comes on about 110 and off at 1=
50psi.
Never had a problem with that.=C2=A0 Depending on the dia you are using you=
'll want to get the right fittings, again ask the counter person at the tru=
ck stop.=C2=A0 There are 2 types that I know of, one with the penis in the =
fitting and one where you have to purchase the metal insert for the dia. ho=
se you are using.=C2=A0 If you don't have either of these metal inserts for=
the hose, the hose will collapse when you tighten the=C2=A0 nut on the fer=
rel.=C2=A0=C2=A0 I'll send you pictures of the 2 connectors in another emai=
l.
