Airbag valve mounting questions
Got my frame down here yesterday, and am re-thinking my valve mounting. I did have my valves mounted on the outside of the framerails, within like 2-3 feet of the bags. Now im thinking, that i want to mount my valves very close to, if not directly to the tank, to clean the frame rails up a bit, and make wiring and plumbing easy. The reason i had them mounted close to the bags, is so that they were plenty fast. Well, Ive got 3/8" valves, 1/2" lines, 2 - 5gallon tanks, and 175 psi pressure switch. Would i lose that much speed mounting them to the tanks?

Re: Airbag valve mounting questions
ok, now how about some pics of valves mounted directly to the tanks. just curious. i have 2 - 5 gallon skinny tanks. ill mount each side on the corresponding tank. the tanks will be tied together. just for some ideas. i think the tanks are going right behind my notch, while the gas tank sits on top of the rails behind the airtanks. yeah.. thats what ill do.

Re: Airbag valve mounting questions
Wow 7Deuce,
That's the first time I've seen a shot of your set-up. I really like the motor parts theme you've got going on in there. Valves, connecting rods for shock mounts, and what looks like sections of a flexplate for something in front of the tires. Awesome!!
