Default Non-permanent Air system

Well the fucking Govt has screwed my mod plans Gotta make some sacrifices and on board air is going to be one of them.

So....what is a decent 12V plug in that will work for airing a 33" tire?

MV50 super flow, amazon it you can get em for about 50 bucks. Have had mine for a year no problems and you can also mount them in the engine bay.

Don't use your 12v. You'll just keep blowing fuses. Get one that clamps on to your battery.

I love my Viair 400P. A guy I wheel with loves his too.

Thanks guys. I might just wait until I'm down in the states and pick one up there. Save myself the shipping fees. Most cities have Harbour Freight stores down there?

The Smittybilt Dually air compressor runs at $125, has been reliable, quickly pumps 35s, attaches directly to battery on decently long cables, and is easily stored securely on trunk floor using a bungee strapped to the mounting plate of speaker unit.

Check out Titan . Its a Canadian company near Toronto. They have a great portable compressor that airs my 37 toyos from 10lb -27lb in 2 mins. If you call Duncan will give you a better deal then whats on the web.
