Hey all, I'm in the midst of putting an on-board air setup under my van, but that means I need to settle on the final details. In this case, my one open question is what hose to use for all the plumbing/interconnect. I'll be using a Viair 400c which has an 18" braided leader hose, but my tank will probably be a bit farther away, so I'll need hose and fittings to make that connection to the tank, plus some hose to split to each end of the van (planning for Q/D ports on each bumper).
The Viair kits usually include compression fittings for 3/8" DOT air line. Not sure if this is the "preferred" hookup stuff though, especially given exposure to underbody heat, etc. Do folks just get 3/8" silicone air hoses and cut 'em up and use barb fittings, or what?
What do you use?
Thanks!
