Default Central Tire Inflation

Anyone ever heard of a central tire inflation system that we JK types might be able to take advantage of?

I read with interest about this one for Dana Spicer, but I've never heard of its availability or of any other.

Hmmmm, I know some of the original H1's came equipped with them like their military brothers but I didn't know you could get them for a Jeep. Even if you could, it sounds like it would cost a lot of cash to set it up.

First post, glad to be here!

My father's company has built (my dad helped develop and engineer the system) the CTIS system for AM General for many years. I used to help build them in fact. There isn't a whole lot fo the actual unit, although our CTIS's were quite a bit more substanital than the one's shown there. Which is a given because of the miliary spec. The system itself isn't complicated, I'm sure the issue with making it mainstream is installation issues on existing vehicles. I had wanted to figure out a way to put it on my old ZR2 Blazer, my dad's response always was, "good luck."

I don't want to beat a dead horse, but running into AndyR with his studly AiROCK-equipped JK this week in Death Valley got me thinking.

Seems to me the AiROCK setup already has all the pieces in place for central tire inflation (all but the hubs, obviously). Has anyone thought about this? Anyone hear anything? I've already sent some pings out to ORO and a few installers.
