Default Can I use the SLS pump for anything?

I have converted to coils and am wondering if there is any way to mod the air compressor to air up tires... does it have the pressure and can I hard wire it with a switch? Thanks for any suggestions.

i had a 94 Lexus and the air suspension started to act up, not the bags, but the pump itself.. I hardwired the pump to a switch under the dash to raise the suspension and it worked really well... when i turned the car of though, the *** end would drop to the floor, looked pretty cool, i had huge rims and everything on it.. I don't know what else you could use it for, but if it can lift the truck, i don't see why you couldn't use it to pump up a tire (might be a bike tire, but hey, something is better than nothing right)..

Regards,

I tried the necklace thing but chipped a tooth doing jumping jacks so thats a no-go. Fish bore me unless they are meat eaters but then I'm to scared to clean the tank...

There was a thread with a similar question a while back, I can't find it, but I think the consensus was "NO."

....although a necklace would be nice, maybe have it dipped in chrome first and figure out a way to make it spin

I kind of figured if it could be done it would have been talked about on here. I might give it a try anyway if I find time between fixing all the other rovers. BTW I have two arnott air bags for sale in the classified section if you know of anybody who is interested!
