I took a shot at it myself, and with only two hands, and missing one necessary tool, I gave up before kicking something (haha).

It's not nearly as easy as it looks in the video. The tool I am missing is a wrench larger than 5/8 or 11/16 to remove the old air outlet fitting from the top of the compressor.

I should be able to help - you want to come up Saturday?

The 22 to 24" of extension for a socket is nothing i have (8" & 4" I think). You have some extensions?

I didn't catch the reference to the wrench for the outlet fitting.

Thanks Jim! It's set up for a different vehicle, so the air output is higher that can fit under the hood right now, but I don't have a wrench large enough to take it off. I have a few extensions and can get more tools if necessary. I'll contact you via telephone.

I'm heading to sleep in a couple and will be in a loud jeep much of the day tomorrow...

Friday I'm generally in the office.

Text me is good too.
