Regular Cab Inboard Frame Air Oil

Separator (AOST) Bracket Installation

When lifting a vehicle, ensure it is supported securely with

appropriately rated jack stands.

Apply Loctite 242 (blue) or equivalent to all fasteners.

Figure 1 – Regular cab

 Lift the vehicle and support it securely with appropriately rated jack

stands.

 Verify that the vehicle is not equipped with a “mid-ship fuel tank” in the

space where the separator tank will be mounted.

 Position the crossmember straps on top of the frame crossmember, just

behind the cab (Figure 2).

 Mount the flat crossmember bracket to the bottom of the crossmember

using the 4 supplied 3/8 in x 4 1/4 in bolts and 3/8 in nuts. Ensure the

bracket and the straps are located on the flat surfaces of the

crossmember. Leave the fasteners loose to allow the bracket to be

adjusted later (Figure 2).

If the frame crossmember is narrower than shown in Figure 2,

use the jogged bracket in place of the drilled bracket. This will

provide the correct tank mount height.

 Secure the AOST clamp to the flat crossmember bracket using the

supplied M10 x 1.5 x 30 mm bolts and nuts and torque to specification

(Figure 3).

Figure 3 – Install AOST clamp

The rear AOST bracket will attach to the crossmember directly behind the

forward AOST bracket.

Ensure the hoses and PTFE tubes are routed so that they do

not contact hot, sharp or moving objects. Wherever possible

cover hoses and PTFE tubes with plastic loom and use

rubber coated P-clips.

 Connect the discharge and oil return hoses, as well as the scavenge and

pressure control PTFE tubes to the compressor as indicated in the VMAC

installation manual.

 Follow the hose routing instructions from the installation manual but do

not cross the hoses or PTFE tubes under the transmission; instead,

continue routing the hoses / tubes along the inner frame rail and connect

them to the AOST.

If the hoses are a little short, move the AOST forward in the

AOST clamps.

 If necessary, reposition the front and rear brackets to allow the tank to sit

naturally before tightening all fasteners.

 Torque the tank mount and clamp fasteners to specification.

If extra hose length is required, contact the VMAC sales team

for custom hose pricing.

Crew Cab / Extended Cab Inboard

Frame Air Oil Separator (AOST)

Bracket Installation

When lifting a vehicle, ensure it is supported securely with

appropriately rated jack stands.

Apply Loctite 242 (blue) or equivalent to all fasteners.

The discharge and oil return hoses included with the system

will be too short to connect the compressor to the AOST.

Once the AOST has been installed, measure the length from

the compressor to the oil return and discharge fittings and

contact the VMAC sales team for custom hose pricing.

Figure 8 – Crew Cab / Extended Cab

 After the AOST has been installed, measure the length between the

compressor and the oil return and discharge fittings so that new hoses

can be ordered.

 Lift the vehicle and support it securely with appropriately rated jack

stands.

 Verify that the vehicle is not equipped with a “mid-ship fuel tank” in the

space where the separator tank will be mounted.

(P/N# 1200924).

Ensure the vehicle brake lines will not be pinched or come in

contact with the AOST tank mounts.

The inboard AOST bracket will be mounted approximately 2 ft forward of the

crossmember, directly behind the brake line guide.

 With the 2 holes oriented toward the ground, slide one of the mounting

straps up behind the vehicle brake lines (Figure 11).
