Default On board air

I went with the Kilby set up. It mounts next to the alternator. All brackets are included along with idler pulley and new belt. The air tank mounts where the evap canister used to be ( they have a relocation kit for that). It runs air tools and is great for tires. When my electric lockers give out I'm going with ARB and just have to add a regulator.

Good luck using a 5 gallon tank to fill 35's. I bought a 5 gallon 125 psi tank a couple weeks ago. It could barely fill all 4 tires on my girlfriends Jetta that needed about 8 psi each. Anything under like 50psi that tank was useless. I ended up returning it and I'm just gonna save up for an on board air setup of some sort

If you want a tank with no compressor, start looking at CO2, not air.

Are any of the portable 12v compresors that just plug into the cig lighter andy good?
the smittybuilt units claim to fill a tire in 3 to 6 minutes, that may be all i need?
