Air line

I just ordered the Big Red 4-way valve pack from RideTech. What size airline should I run and what are the best fittings to use? I'm not looking to give myself whiplash when I air out the bags, just fine tune and not have a fitting blow out.

Let me know what the recommendation is, and also the best place to pick up this stuff...Thanks

Re: Air line

I used DOT rated 3/8". You can always slow it down if you wanted, but I think 1/4" would be way too slow.

Re: Air line

Yeah that's what I was thinking. Where did you get your fittings from, and what kind did you use?

Re: Air line

I used Parker fittings from a local vendor. I used the DOT push connects.
