Another version..... Manual CTIS (elecric over pneumatic) https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?182033-Manual-CTIS-electric-over-pneumatic

what type of plastic tube have you folk used to extend the OEM tube to a new valve? What is name of plumbing fittings needed for working with the plastic tube?

He's not on here too often. You might want to PM/email him asking to pop over to answer questions.

YUP..... that not knowing what norm is ....... is what bit me in the ARSE

FIX THAT NOW!!!! till then drive it very little and NOT OVER 30mph. If the vibration is in the rear you'll easily destroy transfer case if you push it. Use the TM's to make sure all is to spec. in play etc. of the driveline.

The only two specifications. we are missing here to really do this right is what PSI (or range of PSI) is the wheel valve designed to be opened AND held open at. It may well be it is the same psi for both open and hold open but we just don't know yet. Anyone come across those figures before?

GOOD TO KNOW about the leverage advantage within the system. Brilliant. Much thanks. Course you can't "shut off the pressure" like you mentioned. Would think it has to bleed it off via a something like TJ's dump valve in order to make it go away? Hope TJ will test this. If it works it might...

So if am understanding this right... to reach the 12psi* of Suprman's suggestion one could plumb in a second regulator/gauge before the dump valve. Call this the Dump Regulator and the other in the pic the Supply Regulator. This seems it could then be used during deflation to set a bleed off of...

Two ways to answer the same question of.... what does the Inflate gauge actually show and when does this gauge actually show this? (different wording to explain same thing) these quotes taken from a PM discussion had with TJ. Putting them here to help others wrap their head around this idea.

Sorry for questions. Thougt I had this "understood" but now am confusing myself. Again a Step 4 question and the "desired PSI". Does the gauge show tire PSI reducing during this step or is it a gut guess that "desired pressure" or maybe better said "desired amount of deflation" has been reached...

at #4... 4. Open the dump valve just enough to allow some air to exhaust, when this happens, the quick-release valves on the frame will start to dump the air from the tires, close it and allow the tires to deflate to the desired psi. When it reaches desired PSI what do you do to stop it from...

Much Thanks.... Great idea One additional option of going this route is the possible additional advantage to add an air pressure powered Personal Air conditioning suite. By adding in A "T" and valve prior to supply of incoming air to CTIS? system you could power it. Might need a regulator and...
