I had it on the Ramcharger, The most expensive part was the tank and a new/junkyard AC compressor. Worked like a champ!

[Thread hijack]did you ever have charging issues with the ramcharger??[/thread hijack]

I used 3/8" hose.  I bought a whole section of line from Home Depot, it is orange in color and rated for 300lbs I think.

No issues really.... The voltage Reg and Ballast resistor would go out about once every 2 months or so, other than that it was a great rig. I hated the 727 that it had!

on the drivers side inner fender you'll find a wire that splits off into 6 wires (i think) then goes back into one. This is the Fusable link I just mentioned in another thread. Autozone has rolls of this stuff CHEAP I kept a roll in the glovebox of the Beast. sometimes it would totally melt the wire (that's what it's designed to do) sometimes it would just take some feeling around to see which wire is actually bad. Give that a try... it took 3 different trips to Autozone to figure that one out.
