It's ok to be cause I know I am haha

 

Oh I am! haha won't be SASing this rig tho

 

Why not? Just wondering

 

My 4runner will, this is more of an expo type truck to me. May go LT front on this one

 

Sweet!

 

Hey guys need some help picking out a compressor.. Plan is to use it to fill up tires of course and run front and rear lockers, maybe air tools but probably not. So would the

$600 arb ckmta12 '12V' on-board twin high performance air compressor, ideal for air lockers locking differentials, tire inflator, air horn, air tools and pneumatic tools.

arb ckmta12 (twin compressor) be better for me? Or just the single

$310 ckma12 on-board air compressor high performance 12 volt for air locker differentials and tire inflation

ckma12 ??

 

Sounds like a twin would be what ya need. You'll also have to get the manifold kit for running the lockers
I just got the same. I also went with a 2.5gal tank to complete the OBA setup

 

That's what I was mot likely going to do anyway but jut had to ask to potentially save some money. But I think I'm going to get the twin!! Thanks for answer!!

 

Check this thread out. Might help save a few bucks.

Thanks for the link!! For sure will be buying from there!

 

I regret selling my Tacoma and wildernest

 

So, our camp chiefs (girlfriends) have been asking for a better working water system. After pricing out different options and trying to piece together parts, I found this bad boy on Amazon. Designed for a 5 gallon water bottle, it works perfect on the FrontRunner jerry can. 28 bucks for a push button water pump. I'm sure it would fit/adapt/etc to other water containers as well.

That's a slick idea!

 

Seeing as you have camp Chiefs... What is your solution for showers for them? I'm still working on that and looking for ideas. The RoadShower is an option but I know @Crom made his own jerry can setup.

 

Shower? Haven't ran into that issue yet. We've been able to get by on 4 day trips without complaint in that department so far. Honestly, we're all pretty much on the same page and have come to terms that we're going to smell and be dirty after a few days. It is what it is. Makes getting home and having all the amenities more appreciated I suppose.

 

Very cool idea.

 

I have 5 different showers. Search back in this thread by my username where I itemized them, also wrote an article in my build about them. But none of mine are Jerry can type, maybe that was @Leppz you are thinking of?

 

Pretty neat, and not outrageously priced for what it does.

 

Maybe it was the pressurized military can I was thinking of?

 

That's probably my setup you are referring to.
It's detailed in the bottom of my first post on my build page.
