    Air hose adapter

    A tire on my big forklift looked too low to move it without it coming unbeaded This is a tire that I had re[placed just prior to having the forklift brought to me, since I haven't used it in a few months I am guessing the guy who mounted it may not have replaced the large O ring on the 4 piece rim or there was still some dirt or debris he didn't get cleaned properly. Just one more thing I will have to attend to eventually or call a tire man to repair it, which I may do because I am not really into the idea of pulling a 500 lb tire any time soon.
    My 150 feet of air hose wouldn't reach si I plugged in my booster tank with its 50ft of half inch air hose only then I needed a way to reduce down to be able to plug in my 3/8 air hose A 1/2" male quick connector a 3/8 female quick connector and a couple of fittings later I was able to reach the forklift.

    The nice thing about it, now I can run my little sandblaster off of the 1/2" hose
