    Some things I read made it sound like the hf one might be slightly better?

    I was poking around on the interwebs for ubolt flips and stumbled on a LROR sale for 49.95 and free shipping.

    Was sort of an impulse buy which I'm not prone to.

    The one from HF is a clone of the Smittybuilt, It might be worth a shot as it's 1/3 of the cost.

    Are you guys sure it's not the rear pinion angle? Were any shims installed with the rear leaf packs?
    Take off vibes that diminish are usually associated with rear driveline angles. I've heard about the front pinion vibes and the bearing fix but I assumed that was a constant vibration..

    My MV50 has served me, and my 31s, well. Without any mods.

    Bought it from Low Range Off Road for $40 on sale.

    One of the trips that was run this last winter, I had a no name compressor that I had been using for years, couple of guys had the MV50's and one guy had the Smittybuilt. The SB aired up 8 tires while the rest of us were still on our 2nd or 3rd tire.
    I ordered my Smittybuilt that very evening.
    :cool:

    I have to say my Viair 400H worked like a champ last weekend. It was so much faster then what I was used to I kept over-inflating. Love their digital tire gauge with stem clamp too.
