That one is on my short list. For a 60g, at that price that one is real nice. The is an 80g at Sam's that has my interest at the moment.

wtf...theres walking room near that compressor...whose garage is it in? i know that aint yours!

[ghettosuperstar]

Wow. Thats a great purchace. I hope to get a compressor of somekind soon.

haha yeah the garage is a little cleaner to make working on the SS a little easier. Oh, the compressor normally lists for around $430, but was on clearance for $240.35. I couldnt pass that deal up. I thought it was a clearance of the display model, but then they took down a brand new one off the top shelf.

Paul what store????

MAX PSI: 135, TANK: 60G, STAGES: 1
SCFM: PSI/40: 15.0, PSI/90: 13.3
PUMP: CAST IRON, MOTOR RPM: 3450

its the model right below that i believe, you were looking at the HD model, which was for sale for $397

Mine is:
Max psi 135 Tank 60G, Stages 1
SCFM: 12.2 at 40psi, 10.8 at 90psi
Pump: cast iron

Matt, Lowes Home Improvement, but remember you need a 220v power line for it, It will not work with a normal 120v outlet.

Same here and the lift is awesome8)

yeah i have a 2 post lift as well, sitting in my other garage, i gotta look into the thickness of my current floor but most likely i'll have to cut and pour a thicker footing.

[BonzoHansen]

What Lowes was this at? I stopped at the one on Rt 1 in west windsor and there are no compressors on sale.

[Quail]

lol time for nascar pit practice swappin rims or just takin the same ones on and off?

[V]

well, its now finally all installed, wired, and working. I just finished up wiring it at the main box this morning(i held off till i got back from my sis's wedding in detroit) I had ran the wiring and did all the connections in the garage last week. After talking to an electrician and a general contractor, i went with 8/2 wiring from the box to a single surface mount recepticle in the garage and then a section of 8/2 to the compressor itself. When i install my lift, i'll just run 8/2 from that to the outlet and use another plug. Since the lift will be used rarely, i'll just unplug the compressor when i need it. After it was all wired, i turned it on and it ran great, filled the 60gal tank to 135psi in under 10 min. and after fixing a few leaks in the lines I am now set. Later today or tomorrow, i'll change the valve springs on my motor, lol. heres a pic of it setup, now i just gotta clean up/setup around it....

Cool! Just think of the cars you'll be able to take apart now! :laugh: And all the free time you'll have since you won't be using hand tools!

[Savage_Messiah]

[baddest434]

always good to have an compressor. i got one but it's only a 30 gallon. but it's just for home use. anything else i just take it to my son's shop.
