I've been talking with the guys at Bendix about replacing the air compressor with something that puts out a bit more air. I found a Midland part number someone posted on here as: MS-51322-1, but a cross-reference search on Haldex doesn't turn up any results. Is that the right part number? I can't find any part numbers or markings on my air compressor. Can anybody help me out? I need to find out what Bendix air compressor is a bolt-in replacement so that Bendix can help me figure out whether we can replace it with anything bigger/better.

what are you after more cfm's for running tools?

jesusgatos

Exactly. I'm going to be pulling a trailer full of tools, and will be using Mah Deuce as a mobile workshop (among other things).

Thanks, but those part numbers don't cross either.

Might want to consider just getting a gas compressor. Deuce works for running air tools once in a while, or while broke down. Running for long periods of time with no load will have the truck slobbering oil. Less wear and tear on the truck.

I found some info on the NSN for the one that's linked on ebay above. It looks like it puts out 7.25 CFM at 1250 RPM.

2530-00-863-3155, MIL-DTL-45334, MS51322-1, N 5408-A, N-7502-E, TU-FLO 400

I got one in the classifieds. Will deliver 16.3 CFM at 175 PSI. $500 and it's yours!!

Thanks, but space is at a premium in my truck and trailer, so if I'm looking to consolidate things wherever I can. Realistically, I won't be using air for long stretches of time very often. It's more of a 'need it when I need it' kind of thing. It would be too easy for me to fill my whole trailer with tools and spare parts, but I'd have no room to haul any toys around with me and then what's the point? I'm building a rig to live/travel in, so I want to have a good selection of tools with me, but that's a slippery slope...

Thanks. That's good info to have.

Thanks, but I don't have room for that. Bendix makes some engine-mounted compressors that look pretty similar to the stock deuce compressor that put out about 14-16cfm, but evidently those air compressors are only rated for a 25% duty-cycle so it's better, but not as good as a dedicated compressor like what you've got.

Thanks! That's EXACTLY what I wanted to know. I've forwarded this to Bendix and my contact is going to talk to the engineers about whether we might be able to adapt any of their other compressors to this application. We just needed to know what the stock bendix compressor part number is.
