ahhh, the perks of being a tractor/trailer mechanic
 
I've been turning wrenches for tanker companies since 98 and even ran the last shop I was at for about 7 months till a better offer came along. Within those 10 years I have gotten to know the vendors pretty well. Needless to say I just scored two airtanks for FREE.

I'm along way from riding on air but hey its a start.

i just bought some parts from a guy that was a diesel mechanic and he did some research and one of his vendors found the correct size bags but with 10000 pound capacity and other various valves and fittings that were left over from his project.

Do you have a part number on the bags?
