Air pressure regulator for pump-up suspension?
Posted: Sun Jan 22, 2006 5:47 pm
I've found that the pump up suspension in the back of the MY tends to lose air when wheeling ( holds it for weeks when not ). I'm looking at ways to easily ( and CHEAPLY ) re-pump them up to a set PSI.
To me the ideal way would be to have an inline device that vents to atmosphere when it reaches a set PSI. I already have a rear 12v socket set up on a dash swtich so the theory is I'll occasionally flip it on ( with a cheap compressor attached to it ) until I hear it venting.
However I have no idea if such a device exists or if something else would do the job as well. The air hose for it is quite thin and it has a standard screw on valve ( like tyres ) for the compressor so it could be inline either before or after that valve depending on what sort of connectors it has.
So to those who may know such things, what's my best option and where do i buy/acquire this sort of gear from ?
