Exploring options for onboard air for 35" tires after off-roading. I've seen the basic ARB compressors and they seem to take forever which just seems annoying. What are the other options? I've seen compressor/tank combos that fit between the engine and radiator and that seems to be a good option but I have no experience with them. Who has one, what brand, price and what is your experience with it?

I saw a guy with an onboard air system in Moab that was able to get a 37" tire to rebead after coming completely loose. Impressive but I didn't think to look at what he was running.

 

Here is the setup I just built. I aired up my 35's from 16-32psi today and the tank pressure didn't drop below 75psi. It's not exactly OBA, but works well for me since I only need air for tires and tools.

Probably some type of expensive York setup, check out Kilby airboss.

I didn't notice the date on this, I'm sure there are several better options available now, but it seems to be a good comparisson:

I have the ARB setup for the lockers/tires mounted under the hood, slow but does the job. Also have a 12 year old portable QuickAir 2 that I take along. (at some point, I'll probably mount it with a tank)

 

Here's my setup

 

Anyone running the warn powerplants that has used other dedicated compressors to compare performance? Since we're on the topic

I have a friend that has one, on his first trail ride we put together the air line kit and filled his four 35's from 12-35 faster then my cheapo HF did my 37's. It seems to put out a decent amount of air, but does seem to run really hot.

 

I have the ARB with the brake master cylinder mount. Check out Powertank as an option with Springtail Solutions as a mount for it.

 

I do, works great, but after spending 7 years spending 3-4 minutes per 35" I'm ready to look into something with a nice big tank. Also ready for someone to put central tire inflation on the market. ;-)

 

I have a Puma 12V. Not fixed mounted, but very fast. Central tire inflation would be cool though!

 

. Where do you buy a puma?
