I decided that I wanted both onboard air and an onboard welder for my '76 FJ40. There are a lot of ways to do this, but I didn't want to spend too much money, so I decided to try a combination of a junk yard York compressor and running my stock alternator with a separate junk yard Ford 105 - 130 amp alternator to do light duty welding. The other design consideration is that I didn't want to rearrange everything irreversibly so that I could return it to stock configuration if need be. First start with a mid 70s to mid 80s Volvo York compressor and mounting bracket. This was $17.50 at the local Pick N Pull. Get the associated hardware, hoses and belt tensioners. Be sure to get one with the double pulley. The tag number should contain the ID# 210R somewhere in the number. Here is what it looks like: members.cox.net/cglabe1/Air/Air.html
