Let's see if attaching the image works.=20
The air rail I fabricated. (I made some others but all look the same)
I made it look pretty by ceramic coating it. Very pleased with the final res=
ult.=20
Because the original air rail used longer tube nuts and the ones available t=
o me in the correct thread size weren't quite long enough, I used compressio=
n sleeves to make a tighter seal against the inner tubes and allow the nuts t=
o draw tight without bottoming out.=20
