    Well its a land Cruiser with a diesel so I've got that going for me.
    True... just need to get an adapter and then spend $350 on the setup...CO2 gets pretty cold though I wonder if that has any effect on the system.

    from his website...

    "The base system will work with an off-site air compressor, air tank or CO2 cylinder, or opt for the on-board air kit and use your vehicle’s on-board air compressor. We offer master kits for cars, trucks, duallies, trailers and motorhomes, plus a number of accessories designed to make airing up/down even more convenient on specific applications"

    tested the Stauns method of deflating and worked like a charm! :woot:

    used two for more air flow and also allows me to take one off during the process to check the psi. then I can stop anytime by pressing down on the top of the deflator or wait till it reaches my set psi

    Does this mean you have two extra deflators and need me to relieve you of one?

    setting the blow off valve was a bit tricky...small movements translate to 3+ psi changes

    luckily the Viair ADA made quick work of it...

    keep the hose connected, close the valve on the 2way air, the Viair will keep building air in the mini tank until it reaches 80 or 95psi i believe, then it shuts off automatically...when ready open the 2way air valve back up and the tank releases and the pump starts back automatically when it needs more air...

    pretty slick setup in such a small compressor...

    stauns set at 15-16psi and the 2way inflation set around 35psi...shit got much easier with this move :D

    we were able to get in one last camping excursion in before winter really set in...packed up the truck and family and headed south...to New Mexico!

    overall was a great trip and loving the recent additions to the truck...

    the Timbrens were amazing to have and the 2Way Air was a sweet addition! 2Way Air was an easy way to air down to any PSI i want with one point to check the pressure making it a breeze to get all 4 at the same PSI...airing up was very handy as well as i did not always have to rely on the blow off valve if i wanted to get up to a lower than road pressure PSI... for instance, on San Lorenzo i went down to 20psi, then after went right up to road pressure..then monticello i went down to 18psi and road that until after zuni canyon when i moved the pressure up to 30 psi until we hit 96 on our way home when i just topped off the tires to road pressure...

    anyway...trip summary...

    switch update....

    got my 2012 lower dash modified and installed along with some new switches...

    outlined the OTRATTW 4 block panel, cut out with the dremel and finished off with a flat file..
    1C921EC1-A30E-4605-BC04-E05AF0A2A4A7_zps_f6366b0fdfd6e0982da2c3763c9904a922c87319.jpg

    the 4 panel option allows still for both outlets and gives the switches a solid mounting point...the factory holes, if cleared out with a file/dremel, it seemed like the switches would have been very tight...the 4 switch panel allows better spacing

    of course, getting to the lower dash was a pain in the ass...but i got my LED fogs wired to a switch now (ninja lights)..the switch lets power get to the relay which is activated by the corner lights...

    moved my 30" to the lower dash (outta my way) which is using an on-off-on switch...on then on with high beams

    my ditch lights moved down to the lower dash as well (sasquatch lights) and i setup wires for the 40" (fuck off)...wires are plumbed through the firewall ready to be tied in when that project gets going...

    90CA1E6B-0CCD-458A-97D8-1EA7B9BECC93_zps_4e464e3d5377d1f4e330cf5c3d4ee0b3fe328383.jpg

    i am eventually moving my compressor switch to the factory spots left of the steering wheel, but for now, that switch is remaining in the engine bay...a blank sits in that spot for now

    then my rock lights got a new switch (rock lights) and my bed lights remained the same (trunk monkey)

    the red switch was for my ditch lights and is now not connected..
