Yowza! Certainly thankful for your efforts (and appreciate that the person quoting needs to get paid as well), but that's way more than I'm willing to invest. If we got enough buyers to get it down under $500/ea, then I'd consider. Otherwise, I'll just stick with current band-aid solutions.
Just so you know $900 Canadian is only $650 in U.S. dollars. The exchange rate definitely works in your favour.

Me too, honestly. A complete swap for coils is around 2600 CAD$. Putting the drying thing as it is should be around halfway if I order only one. For the future hassle saving potential, I'd go for the swap.
An OEM used parts / scrapyard parts swap would be less than a grand from the research I've done. So, yah...
I'm personally just going to keep a very close eye for leaks, and address immediately when I discover one. I'm stubborn as ****, so this air suspension doesn't have a chance of "winning". LoL

I like the idea of the desiccant dryer filter and the spin on filter would be nice but at that cost for a spin on adapter I'd be tempted to go with this;

If I start having problems with my air suspension this would be my method at this time.

Not bad at all! I'll dig in.

Hey guys,

I've been contacted by another forum member in PM regarding the bracket fabrication some time ago, so I went to the guy who made mine and asked him about the price - he named $150. That excludes shipping of course.

Funny thing is - a few days later he called me and said that 8 brackets were ready for me. I never asked him to start making them, but I guess people really like to hear what they want to hear sometimes...

Anyway, I have an unexpected stock of these now. I think I'll keep one just in case, but for the other seven - I'd be happy to get them to one of you, so you could forward them locally just to make one cross-continent shipping. I think there should be some shipping options even at these times.

Money is another PITA though. Anyway, if anyone's willing to take part in this - let me know. I guess we'll have to work something out.

Where are you?

I started to look at but looks like it's made for indoor only. They seem to have a drain port at the bottom, meaning that if there is water it will freeze in there, not sure if it's bad or irrelevant. For the moment the spin on cartridge seems to be the most well adapted option. Still inquiring.

Woups, sorry mate, I don't think that will work. Given what Russia is doing to the world right now I can't accept nothing from there. Really nothing against you.

This being said Urals is freaking north, if you do have success with your air suspension and dryer, I guess this proves a solid point.

Well, I've given out all blueprints, so my part is done anyway.

Literally zero problems with the air suspension since the dryer installation.
