| The last truck we bought that did not already have an under hood compressor was a 1 ton Chevy with a 6.5 under the hood. We had the compressor off the ford that blew up. The bracket alone was $1800.00, but we ran that old gal over 300000 miles with no problems. This was an air cooled compressor. When this old gal finally gave up we bought a Dodge diesel and put an under body compressor on it. It was PTO driven and would put out 3 times the cfm's the under hood compressor did. It should, the compressor alone was $8000.00. We reused the over the cab air tank and other equipment off the Chevy... The guys who bought the tire shop are still running the Dodge. What I am getting at is--If you can find an old tire truck you will probably find most everything you need. Most factory built tire service trucks are built on ford units. | |
