There are a few write ups on it, so i will just throw up some pictures of my setup.
I used the BroncoAir Kit. This is a York 210 from a late 70's volvo.

Here is the intake filter and fitting. I used the stock hose and attached my filter to that to save some coin.

This isnt a great pic, but its the filter and Check Valve. You can look around them to get a feel of exactly where its located.

Here is the manifold that has the safety valve and the drain valve.

This is where i mounted my gauge. Its visible and legilble from alot of positions.

Here is the 3 gallon tank mounted under the bronco under the rear seat.

It has lines that run to the front and back of the truck and has an air pressure switch too. There are more pics of those and more on my superford. There is also more detail on my setup.

Looks good.

Do you have a saginaw power steering pump tucked in there too?
I got the part number from Dogonmut, so i bought it new but its a saginaw type pump for bronco/f150 IIRC. It is incredibly quiet, and looks like a saginaw pump, but i didnt need a new bracket, so im not for sure if its 'real' saginaw.
Electrical tape and zip ties, we can now classify you as Hi-tech *******.....

Good job, looks nice!! My OBA tank is mounted in the same spot, it's like Ford new something should be mounted there.
Nicely done.
thank you. i never knew how great air tools were till i got some. right now i only have a bargain grinder and a bargain impact, but my goodness they are useful.
ha ha......you got a Volvo compressor:goodfinge

:thumbup haha, i only used tape because whats underneath it is way uglier and i couldnt find any heat shrink that large. Dont under estimate zipties. i use them for alot, prolly alot more than i should. have you seen my e-fan with the coolant and washer fluid reserviors??

I'm not dissin' zip ties. I have more than I can count holding stuff together in my rig...

multitude of things...airing up your tires,running air tools...hell I even used mine to blow out dust and glass when I destroyed my top.
yeah, air tools and tires. you can also run an air locker off of it. well worth it IMO just because you could use air tools for normal maintenacne and you could fill up tires and flats.
yup...same place as mine also...Looks good.:rockon
thanks alot :thumbup
You've been busy over the break huh? :thumbup

I love my OBA, although not as nice as this setup but it has saved me from getting towed out of a parking lot a few times from flats when I didn't have a spare.
Looks real good. That is pretty much what mine will look like
Nice. I have a York 210 and a tank. I have other priorities first but it's on my todo list.
You can buy a compression fitting for that stock AC hose (cut off the rubber part) and screw it onto a NPT fitting with a barb the filter can fit on. Clean that electrical tape up a bit. Other than that, it looks great.
Great job..looks really good. This is definitely on my list of future mods..
