    Put a quick-connect fitting on the air tank and hook the 2 trucks together.

    There are a couple ways. A high side (red) ac line fitting fits the discharge pipe off the air compressor. The air governor should have a schraeder valve fitting, like one on your rims. Remove air tank plug and install a coupler for air line. The supply from another truck will come off the red trailer line.
