    Honestly, I might take you up on that. But if somebody else wants it let them have it. I just want the option to air back up if the last resort to get unstuck is to air down

    If you're ever stuck, airing down is probably too late. However. I haven't posted it cause I don't care. But it's here so no worries

    seems like a basic portable would be easier option for this. $75 viair 88p comes ready to go in a bag requiring no install. Mine Can air up my 33s in about 10 minutes.

    We bled the brakes, all the way through, including the Techstream software (Step 4 in the service manual)

    When I would pull out of the shop, and 1st apply the brakes it would seem corrected. Drive for 1 minute and it came back. The brake peddle had a very large 'empty' spot that felt like it did nothing. After you pushed it through that spot it would start to brake OR you pump the brake and then apply them and it was fine, felt normal.

    Very hard to explain when it is not the same each time you do it. :annoyed:

    We bled through 2 bottles of brake fluid because I just kept telling my buddy it was the brakes :bananadead:

    So at least I have all fresh brake fluid :burp:


    For some reason I had it in my head that if the bearing was this bad, you would feel it in more than the brakes.



    :crazy:

    maybe it’s 15 minutes. Never been long enough I’ve noticed or had it bother me. Also going from 15-35psi.

    I usually crack a beer and finishing airing up before the beer is done.

    We are so similar :D:cheers:

    I'm not sure if it's worth upgrading to this 5.65 CFM compressor.
