Always pretty of ideas going down in this thread lol
Mainly doing it to this extent so I can achieve sensible air up times, which means I'll be more keen to air down
That would be my reason to do it too!

Coming in your ears.
Fitted tonight alongside a new water pump, been meaning to change the pump for about 3 years, but no reason to do so running it without a tensioner, it wasn't having a hard time.
It has got damn noisy though of late so decided time was time.
Best of all, it works!

Propper job sammy!
So does the aircon pump give enough output to air up larger tyres? Fill from flat?
Thought about this ages ago and asked on here but never got much of a positive, or even knowledgable, answer, hence why I eventually knuckled and bought a T-max ..
Mind, many more things to do than on-board air for now, but it _is_ on the horizon ...

Yep, hugely more air than an electric pump of portable size can give
Will do a demo when up and running
But they reckon round figures usual electric pump less than 3-4cfm, AC pump 10-12
And the more you rev, the more air you get.
One guy on LR4x4 said he was airing up and his AC pump was switching on and off because the air couldn't get through the tyre valve quick enough!

No you need to wire a pressure switch in to control the AC clutch.

Far too clean and tidy, will it be painful first time you throw it through some mud?
Yeah but I soon get over it
It's built to be a rough and ready off roader and thats how it earns it's living
I just choose to make it the way I do, to be honest I don't know any other way
And, with good preparation and good detergents, it'll come up like this again as and when required
Be under no illusions though y'all, this vehicle is not a show pony :behindsofa:
