I have a fitting made up that fits the line coming off the top of the air compressor. I hook my shop compressor to the discharge line to the dryer.. then I can listen 'quietly' for air leaks.... I got some of them only i have a shut off valve on mine cause here in my shop my air is set at 160 psi.

AlleyKat Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 (edited) Hi BMT Fans! I have been lurking on here for about a year now and found a thread I can actually contribute to. It's a little late for the OP, but good reference for someone in the future. I just replaced the air line from the air compressor to the bulkhead fitting on transmission on my '93 CH613 this week. The air line is 1/2" Teflon lined SS braided. The 90 deg. fitting on the compressor is a 3/4" NPT x JIC-10 and the bulkhead fitting is a JIC-10 x JIC-10. The bracket that mounts to the transmission is a 2"x2.5" L bracket that is 1.75" wide. The 2" leg mounts on the transmission. The clearance hole for the bulkhead fitting is 15/16" diameter. From the top corner it is located 3/4" to the right and down 3/4" from the top. The mounting hole is 3/8" clearance. From the bottom right corner it is located 3/4" to the left and up 3/4" from the bottom. I will post a dimensioned drawing when I get my CAD program working again. Thanks for all of the knowledge everyone shares on here. I have certainly gained from it. -Al Pics to follow.
