    Yeah that hard plastic case of the ARB seems kind of overkill. This kit was way cheaper and came with more stuff in a smaller package.

    The Viair 88P comes with a 16' air hose and a 10ft power cord. I think I'll be alright. I'll definitely do a full air down and pump up in the driveway this weekend to put it to the test to see how long it takes.

    Oh you will, take it from me. Add a paint pen or magic marker, second tube of rubber cement, more strings. :)

    Kit does look good and compact.

    I recently photographed most of the kit I carry. I bought individually and pack it into an old shotgun cleaning kit. Works great!

    Here is some diesel 70 Series action from Kenya! Just got back from a 10 day trip and spent 700 miles in one of these bad boys

    Couldn't drive. Only the person the vehicle is registered to can drive it.

    This was my driver all 10 days. His name was Paul and was the nicest guy I have ever met. He also could drive better then any pro trophy truck driver I have seen when I was in racing back in the day. He also could spot a lion in 4 ft tall grass from 200 yards out

    I saw real wild lion. They were busy eating a hippo

    So cool. Did you get to see them take it down, or just the aftermath?
