I'd like the spare capacity to help speed up airing times, but didn't want my compressor to always have to fill an entire tank every time I turned the system on. Ended up going a bit of a different route. Purchased a 5 gallon tank from Harbor freight ($19.99 - 20% off). Cut off the tire chuck and added a quick release and a splitter to attach a hose. Now, I can quickly tie into my onboard system. Should speed up airing tires, and will reduce the amount of cycling while engaging lockers. Added a strip of velcro to the back of the tank so that it holds tight to the rear seat. A quick release and I can take it out of the Jeep... Or just disconnect the hose so that the tank is bypassed.
From 0 PSI, it takes my ARB compressor 2:35 to fill the 5 gallon tank to 90 PSI.
Can take it out easily and plug into my garage Air Compressor to expand my capacity there as well.

Damn fine work!!!!!

Replaced my Rugged Ridge windshield light mounts with the Olympic ones. Better visiblity but the hardware was tough to bolt in.

Put the new neoprene cover over my Warn.

Detailed the SH@# out of her so she's shinny just before July 4th at Rausch Creek

Welded on a JKS front track bar brace (to match the rear one I already had) and installed a new QA1 Motorsports steering damper with spherical ends (both from Northridge).
