Default co2 tank.

I have a 20lb tank for my keggerator/beer brewing. I want to convert it to be used for both tasks. The problem is my draft regulator can only do 50psi. Does anybody have a cheap regulator that would work better or can it be done without one? Also has anybody mounted one of these in a 2 door. I am considering getting a bracket to attach it to the roll bar hope fully above the sub but the fitment will be very snug. I am looking for the cheapest solutions. Thanks in advance for the always great info. Also if there is anything else i am missing about this co2 system please let me know.

Do a google search for OffRoadAir Hyper-Flo 150psi Fixed Regulator , they have a couple different units ranging from 49 and up.

I just bought a complete system from offroadair.net for my 2 door, and I just mounted it over the subwoofer. I had to trim the foam under the zippered cover, but otherwise it was easy. On their site, they sell the 150 psi regulator for $50, and you can buy the holder and brackets, too.

Thanks for the speedy responses. Jared937 do you have any pics and what did you use to mount it, what did it attach to?

I bought the roll bar mounts (not cheap, $54) that I attached to the roll bar above the subwoofer, then the tank bracket to the mounts. I looked for some way to attach my 5lb tank from my kegerator (I have a spare), but didn't find anything. granted, I am not a fabricator. I will post some pictures later this week.

I do not have pictures of it yet, maybe by friday. I haven't even filled the tank yet. I bought it because funn4lo had a system he put together (with the regulator from offroadair). It takes about 30 seconds per tire to air up, and one 10lb tank will do 35+ tires. My one concern will be the heat out here in SoCal.
