retracts for Skyshark Avenger
I have the Spring air retracts for my Avenger. New to retracts, wondering how you might suggest best system to supply air to tank (pump) also where is best location for filler valve.
Spring air does list a pump with guage..anyone ever use this?

RE: retracts for Skyshark Avenger
I've got the same kit and retracts. I'm planning on putting the airtank in the bellypan under the wing..They show were on the plans. This will do away with any connections that may cause problems down the road. As far as the filler valve same place the bottom of the belly pan would work well. You may need a small amount of rework to get it in since the bellypan is sheeted. I've got the Robart pump with the gauge its worked for years with no problems. Hope this helps.-Mike

Another question. Looking at the attached photo is this how the filler valve connects to the tank or is is the opposite. Spring air instructions not clear on this.

OK, The bass part goes to the pump. the filler is connected to the "T" one side goes to the tank the other to the slide valve the two reteacts connect to that valve. Its really a easy set up. If you want to play with it just hook it all up and mess with it. Once you have done it once you'll pick it up quick. Mike
