Jizzo17 Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Hello everyone, I have purchased a new to me equipment trailer which only has service brakes on the rear axle. It came with two axles from another trailer with ~100k miles on them. They have the service and park break chambers. I would like to add the r12 and r14 valves to the trailer and plumb them up correctly with the anti compounding valve. The trailer has two air tanks along the frame rails. One is fed from the service side and the other is fed from the supply side. But they both feed into sides of the only r12(?) valve. Which may be normal for that old of a trailer but it has me puzzled on how I can connect it all together. So if anyone has a tank off a trailer that has those valves already mounted I would be interested in purchasing it. Or someplace that might have one. That way I can just bypass the old tanks and lines to just run new ones.

mrsmackpaul Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago I would think any business that sells trailer and truck parts would have a good selection of tanks on the shelf Most low loader trailers dont have enough room for tanks in the area around the axles and the like They always look like they have bucket loads of room but when on full oscillation the axles cans tend to move a lot more than people think Paul Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76380-1970-lowboy-brake-conversion/#findComment-590689 Share on other sites More sharing options...
