Always good to throw a filter/dryer in for piece of mind... You made a decent investment, protect it with the extra 40 bucks it takes for the parts

That is a good idea.. I will be doing the same. I know my tank is always full of water when I drain it.
Have you figured out how you're gonna wire it up yet? If you di it the way I suggest, here's the list (in order they'll be connected to your tank)
Rocker Switch (or whatever the hell kind of DPDT switch you feel like using)
12v air solenoid (Amazon or eBay)
90psi pressure switch
1/4" to 1/8" npt adapter (neck down for smaller fitting)
1/8" npt to bsp adapter (to connect to blue air line fitting)

So this solenoid- http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B008CPA13Q/ref=mp_s_a_5?qid=1343153420&sr=8-5
And I for the life of me cannot find a pressure switch that will work

Dude, that one is 12V AC, not DC. I'll grab some links for you

Mine is the silver thing in the front on the air manifold. This one http://sdhqoffroad.com/oasisadjustbalepressureswitch.aspx
Pressure to the ARB is controlled via a pressure regulator.. seen here

how exactly do you adjust the pressure on them?

You twist it.. at certain points it shuts off. Then you lock it with a setscrew. I have a gauge on the manifold that tells me whats in the tank. The air coming out of the tank is regulated by 2 different regulators. One in the toolbox for air tools and one under the hood for the locker. There is also a non-regulated fitting on the manifold for filling up tires.

Note the picture of my manifold.. has two gauges. Gauge on manifold is unregulated.. only the pressure switch determines what it will read. The other gauge is on the regulator which is the air coming out of it. Under hood is the same.

so this pressure switch would work right? http://www.amazon.com/Pressure-Swit...r=8-2&keywords=adjustable+air+pressure+switch
and this solenoid yes its DC

Looks good to me.

1: thread it into the tank
2: connect wire leads to the control relay that powers your compressor.

i was gonna try not to limit the tank to 90psi, i wanted to be able to keep it at 120 for filling tires and what not. although it would make everything 1000x simpler...

then get a regulator for the arb. Set pressure switch at 120, regulator at 80 for ARB. Its how mine is wired.

thats what my initial plan was, but drew says that wont work. he says the air will equalize...what ive gathered from him this is how to set it up: initial tank pressure at 120, air line going to soleniod, after that a pressure switch to limit it to 90 wired into the soleniod, and then the soleniod for the ARB after that.

Do whatever.. I just know how mine is setup.

youre obviously wrong Sean. It's not like you have had a working system for years and years and years and years...
