    I just read back to see what I was liking...

    I do like it a lot...word of advise to others who have used the Slee bracket. The black plastic hose to run from the compressor to the manifold will pop on you. It did on us while airing up a 33" tire on the test run.

    Ended up getting a steel braided line made to replace the cheap plastic tube and pressure fittings. I highly suggest it...having the hose pop on you while needing the OBA or worse, lockers, is no bueno.

    I would agree. My hose popped right when I finished airing up! I put a really high quality rubber hose and it's been fine. Would prefer steel though.

    Yeah, and we've used the hell out of the thing.

    I'd enjoy one myself, but just can't quite justify paying $150 for one or whatever they cost.

    Agreed. That is pricey. But you are young and single so get on it now.

    That meal was well enjoyed.


    It just holds onto the tire with the hooks on the legs. I've chased it on countless trips and it doesn't go anywhere.

    I feel like you could make one for Pretty cheap.. It may not be as pretty but would still work..

    I feel like you could pick up a $10 grille grate, prop it on some rocks and get cooking. Definitely not as pretty but that's a lot of steak money left over.

    For sure, I just like that it could go on the tire and be out of the way.
