what bracket are you using to mount the york?
if it isn't an onboardair unit who is making it and can we buy one?
what year is your tj?
do you have air con?
are you using a v-groove clutch pulley from OBA or did you find a local source?
how are you addressing oiling the york?

cheers

Zackmonster,
York isn't in yet (waiting on alternator with v pulley) that's why it's hooked to the btIII for now. Proto Bracket made Rod at Lochleigh Enterprises (aka the barwork magician ) mounts flat on the aircon compressor bracket (no aircon on the Goatsack). Which encorporates a clamp tensioner for good pulley tension.

York was a freebie from a mate. Is the 6+cfm "compact" model. Wreckers have em for about $50. Make sure you get the right pulley setup. And test the elec clutch with 12V - should go 'click' when engaged.

I went a seperate v-belt coz I'd heard of ribbed (for her pleasure) pulley problems eg coming off under load in mud use running one big belt for the lot. Personal pref for this 1.

The Goatsack is a 97 TJ

no aircon

york oiling is sweet - has it's own sump, no in-line oiler required. I've also done a common quick mod I found online which stops an avenue for oil blowback.

Gordo - one thing the York might have it's own sump - but you really will want an oil seperator on the outlet - and preferabley a return line.

Oil WILL come out......simple as that......- but you'll get heaps more unless you filter it.
also expect heaps of moisture in the lines - the air is hot, and you'll want a control method to drain it.....
