I think that is right Tom. It should be hose from tank, inlet valve, hose to bag, pressure sensor, and finally the outlet valve.

Ksport has half as many as Tom. since it only controls front and rear. Tom's setup will be all 4 corners. imma hopefully upgrade to 4 corners when i have time n money.

Woo hoo I think it's all right then. Kinda curious abot the sensors though, there's two connections sticking out, which one is ground/ positive. I think it might not matter?

If Hil only has one, then its grounded through the fitting, which...well means he has to ground it through the fitting some how, and he cant use teflon tape on the threads or something.

Which senders are u using? Dakota? If you are using Dakota than one o the connections is ground and the other goes to the gauge. This is important so that you get accurate readings *** Make sure that where ever you do ground the sensors make sure that is is separate from all of your other components as these sensors are sensitive to ground interference especially that created by the compressors. Trust me I have done it before and gotten some very weird readings

He is using Dakota sensors.

For the guys running UAS, do any of you have the picture of the brackets included with their bags for the SC?

The shock/thread diameter has to be 2.14" or less for the bags themselves to fit over.
