Best way to set up Air Lines on back of tractor

LOL, see post 22

 

Is it your trailer?

coil them or loop them and add 2-3 springs.

 

I seem to have more space than yall

But if you need them shorter, remove the spiral wrap and braid them a bit

 

I really like that setup Cattleman. Guaranteed DOT prick proof. Thanks for sharing the idea.

 

Figure out how much length you want, and set your current hanger for it. Then, add an extra hanger to take up the slack between the original hanger and the truck fittings.

 

Don’t shorten them. We’ve always set up the length of the lines to go a foot past the fifth wheel that is maxed out rearward when laid down and stretched out on the frame. Reason is you may get a chance to hook to a low boy or some other oddball trailer that requires the extra length. I borrowed a detachable neck Viking from a friend one weekend just to move 4 antique trucks 10 miles. I had to use every inch of line I had and it was still tight.
