Compressor is in, builds air.... All seems well. Thanks everyone for the help.

Makes sense.

I can line up the hash marks and set it, but I honestly don't know what the above means.

Just under $140 (such is life) and 3 days later, finally got the part made. Hopefully slap it all back together tonight or tomorrow morning

I'll add loctite to those when I mount. Do you have torque specs on those ones?

That's the plan for tomorrow. Also, what parts/lines should I loctite? I'm assuming the red residue on the bolts that were removed were done with loctite. Just wanting to avoid getting loctite into a brand new part and doing damage.

It comes off the top of the compressor, towards the front. RMC was closed when I called a bit after 5. First picture is obviously compressor (it connects on the top line, second picture where it connects on the frame.

I was too. Tried Ace as well.

Nice. Thanks for the suggestion. That's actually one of the places the guy at the truckstop suggested. Beyond that, any suggestions in the meantime? Or, do I accept defeat until Tuesday?

Yeah, just seemed like standard copper tubing, but no one has the right size. Is there any reason to stay with copper, or can I go with a flexible line?

m923a2, sorry, I'm used to just saying 5ton to "normal" people. Thanks for the heads up. Got it out with relative ease and all seemed well.... Seemed. Now, this line was unfortunately smashed, and didn't notice it was twisting until it was too late. Question: As finding the correct ends...

yes, I've downloaded the manuals and searched. I'm having to replace the air compressor tomorrow. I know it's not a terrible job from what most people are saying, but I'm curious if anyone has videos, or advice on it prior to tearing the truck apart. Thanks in advance

Maybe Brexit has gotten to you... Try reading the other posts....I acknowledged it was the idle as I was doing two things at once when posting on the forum and mistyped.

The compressor was/is on it's way to the grave. Had to take it in for emissions and the shop did some inspecting and verified it was toast. It'll hold air, just won't build it up. Putting in a new one this weekend.

I can do that. There was a leak from the top of the compressor. We fixed that (or thought so) as we replaced the gasket at the top. Hoping not to have to replace the compressor, but we'll see. I'll get a video posted this weekend.
