What size compressor do most of you use for your Jeep ? HP, Tank, Max PSI
Pretty much what the title says. Just looking at getting a home set up going to make my life a whole lot easier. I've already installed everything on my Jeep with hand tools, besides the gears. Just looking to make my life a bit easier when doing so in the future.

If you're only going to use an impact, I would suggest cordless. A thread was started a couple of days ago about the very subject.

I agree with what they say above.
I have an older model of this one.
Craftsman 33 Gallon Vertical Air Compressor: Portability from Sears
Although it does work for my air tools, I wouldn't recommend it because of noise. It is pretty loud. I bought it over 10 years and didn't really take the time to research. So don't get a single cylinder oilers compressor like this if you don't want to wear hearing protection while using it. It probably would be okay if it was in a separate room from where you are working or if it was in the corner of a large garage. In my two car garage, it is too loud to use without hearing protection IMHO.

I have the same crazy loud compressor from sears as mentioned above. I put mine in an old cabinet with some Styrofoam on the door and its acceptable now. I have been using it quite a bit for many years but I also would not recommend it. you really want a nice 220 compressor if it is a lifetime investment.
