Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

Had to swap the pump out on my air compressor system. My Harbor Freight pump died (reed valve assembly) after 14 years. They don't make parts to repair the old one (I replace the valve assemblies 6 years ago), so got another one, on sale at HF so for $90, and couple $ for some 3/4" pipe I am back running again. Had to route the air pipe as it was different between the 2 and the hydraulic line guy didn't have the fittings I needed to match up, so 3/4" pipe to the rescue to meet up with the old line. Maybe not stylish, but it works and should be strong enough. I also will need a slightly smaller pulley for the motor, which is on the way, but looks like I'm back in business for about $120 total. I don't seem to use is as hard as when I first got the thing and set up the old HF pump in early 2009. If I get 15years out of this one, I will feel good.

The original setup was a 1991 Excel system. It served EdB for 15 years and been with me since 2006.
