Wanted to get some thoughts on air compressors. I'd like to have one that I can use for inflating tires after they might have been aired down for off roading so it needs to be a 12 volt model. Seems like Viair has quite a few models to choose from. ARB has some nice ones but they are kind of pricey. I figure it will only get used half a dozen times a year at best.

Any suggestions?

 

harbor freight cheapo is working for me right now and I have used it quite frequently.

 

You could always go with CO2.

I want to remove a rear seat and do this



I got these picture from east coast rovers, its a bad *** mod imo.

 

i use sls compressor ledge

 

What do you use for your lockers? Or do you have TT or a Detroit in your GBR Diffs?

 

detroit tt. no air and that was a factor. less things for me to @#%up

 

x2 on that, cheaper too. but for me... I'm going with air lockers. When I sit in that truck, there is so many buttons lol. I will sacrifice and extra few hundred dollars to be able to press a few more buttons and feel like a badass lol.


On a real note, with the rear Detroit you notice any increased wear on the tires?

 

not yet...but i have run det. in rear of one of my work turds, for 3-4 years and haven't noticed there, either.

 

I have a Viair, it's a really good quality compressor for the money.
