new air petcock and air accessory system

Using Capital letters on the first word of a sentence isn't rocket science. But, if you need help, the nice folks at NASA have a guide.

If you just need air use the glad hand on the back of the truck. You can get the air hose at any truck stop store.

well today i decided i hate crawling under my truck to drain the air tanks so i did some thinking.

The center of the new drain valve is about 2 inches further under the truck. I see no gain there.


On most of my trucks, I have added a 2.5" long, 1/2-20 bolt to the drain valve handle. This makes it much easier to rotate.

actually i don't have to crawl under the truck now today i tap both tanks to one valve that i can reach by just crouching and not getting my a** or back dirty. my truck for some reason doesn't have that valve under the dash someone must have taken it out before i bought it. and i'm pretty happy with this set up probably will buy a cable petcock in the near future but for now she works and holds air for over 24 hours.

dog there is a gain though the valve it self is farther back the lever is a couple inches farther out. also its bigger and lower than than frame... thus easier to get at. also capital isn't capitalized in capital letters because its an adjective(i thank you for your concern though). plus i wouldn't go to NASA tho to get help anyways seeing as most of them just lost their jobs.
