Looks great!! Is that the mv50 air compressor? How do you like it. I'm thinking about getting one. Can't beat the price.

We have used it many times. We paid 59.00. By the time we get to the 2nd jeep second tire it will thermally shut down. depending on how hot it is out it takes awhile to cool down.

Thanks. So it will air up all four of your JK tires (35") and then shut down when you move on to another JK? What psi do you start with and end with when using the compressor? Would you say it is worth buying? Sorry for all the questions, just trying to look for a future mod

Yes, all 4 35 in. tires. We run 28+ psi for the road and 12-16 trail. I thnk it is money well spent. Harborfreight has one also, and you can but an ext. war. for 2yrs for only 10 dollar.
We got the Red mv50 bucause the wife has a red rubicon.... ALL other are very expensive
