Update on Diesel Buggy!
This Atlas is a heavy duty version of what they normally sell. It has a heavy duty output kit that they do special for some military rigs. It may soon be available. I think it will be called the M300 option but only for the 2sp. It can handle anything a Duramax can through at it. -

The tires have a PVC insert that goes inside the tire before the two piece rim is bolted togerther which is known as a double bead lock. The tire can not come off the rim since it is clamped from the inside out... I have 20 PSI in them. -

AC pump conversion to air pump
mobile air compressor question I all else fails and the GM Ac unit does not work out I may take a serious look at the new Warn VTC V-twin portable unit. I saw one at the SEMA Show last fall. It is 8 cfm @ 90 psi. But, that is a last resort. Without the AC unit in place I end up with belt...- Tucsontoy

Space? I am already running dual alternators with due to all of the extra stuff on my buggy. Space is the problem with the big York units that I have seen. Can York convert a standard AC pump?

AC pump conversion to air pump
Has anyone converted an A/C compressor to a typical air supply compressor using the current style unit found on the new Duramax.
