Im just curious about the plumbing and if there is anything special i need to get for it.

its pretty simple just buy a nitrogen regulator and run the line directly into the tank dont run just straight nitrogen bottle get you a 5gal tank for it to feed into then figure out the pressure you want to regulate it at i run 160psi and its pretty quick you may want it faster or slower ....make sure to turn off your bottle if your truck will be sitting for a bit like at night because youll be payin for air so dont want it to leak out ....also nitrogen i a clean gas and has less moisture them compressed air so its better on your valves and bags

Be sure to read up on safety in a few areas here:

Handling compressed gases -nasty burns, gas injections (amputation time, pal, sorry), and cheap component failures (ka-BANG).

Limitations of GOOD components. Read up on "pneumatics" AND "hydraulics", because both ultimately apply.

Nitrogen systems can be spectacular performers...2 tons of vehicle cancelling gravity, and getting hang time, is a respectable amount of power.

Be safe, educate yourself thoroughly before you spend a DIME.
