Check this out:

http://www.truckspring.com/airsprings/firestone/product/pres sure_switch.asp

Looks like a whole lot simpler setup than the big honking monstrosity we have been using for a compressor switch.  This site has got some good air fittings and such.

are you running the york compressor setup?  i have a cherokee that i am setting up a compressore on.  trying to just use the stock compressor with an inline oiler on the intake side.  very interested in any advice.  i figure if i burn up the compressor i can get another one for less than forty so no big deal... have read up on it and quite a few peolple have done this and it works.

My Toy has a York.

If you do the inline oiler thing, it will work, but you wind up with oily everything.  Hugh Green in our club has an oiler thing that is a compressed air side oil reservoir and separator that feeds oil back into the intake side and it takes it out of the downstream compressed air.  It seems to work fairly well for him.
