Deeezy's Locked Sport Grocery Getter Build

Thanks!

Thanks man!

 

I did think about it but co2 isn't endless like air from a compressor. It's kind of a pain to refill. Maybe if I had two tanks that I could always have one filled? I opted for the tiny ARB compressor because I already had the co2 to air up tires.
I think I would rather have that big twin ARB compressor for lockers and tires, than plumbing the lockers off of co2.

 

Yeah I'm going back and forth from CO2 to air compressor. I can't decide.

 

co2=really fast

air compressor=no bothersome refill

If you are getting lockers, I would really think about getting an air compressor. The only problem with having a sport is finding room for one of those big ARB compressors in the engine bay. Which is why I opted for the tiny compressor. If I had more money at the time, I would have mounted that big ARB twin compressor in the bed.

 

Why the bigger one if only use is to activate the lockers?

 

Oh, if it's just to activate lockers, I would go with the one I have. The tiny little ARB compressor. Just thinking if you wanted a backup source to air up. I have a little MV-50 compressor just in case.

 

A lot of people get the dual arb compressor for air tools, lockers, air up tires etc. that's why I'm getting a dual when I get regeared and front licker. If I was only going to use it for kickers I would do like Dana and just have a single.

 

This is good info. I think I like the idea of having a slightly bigger compressor to run an air source off of. I dont know what tools I would need being that you can get most things electric, but the idea of airing down tires for trails and then airing back up for road use all from one source seems ideal.

 

You can run tools off of co2 also, except you don't have an unlimited supply of air like a compressor. As far as airing up tires, nothing is as fast as co2.

 

Here's a pic of the "shorty" valve stems, (PN TR-412) on the new wheels. I opted to go with these and disable the TPMS system.

 

Fun with some good guys today. The new Iroks got put to the test.

 

I see you put those MT's to work!...

 

Did Nate and Miles drive up?

 

Me, Vigo, and txnovice drove.

 

Hope everyone got out without trail damage... The way your rear-end was wagging around going up that hill was freaky!...lol Nice job keeping the line!!

 

Not too bad of damage. I bent my spare tire mount on the swingout. Just need to bend it back, or leave it. I slid back into a tree. The spare saved my truck. No body damage though.

 

Guess that giant tire on the rear serves a useful purpose for other than for a flat tire...lol

 

Lol. It did!

 

Were you locked front and rear for that mud?

 

Yes, It would have been extremely difficult to make it up without. There was several other hill climbs like that or more steep, that was barely makable without. It sucks if you don't make it up on the first try because you slide back down and possibly into the trees like I did on one. The hills don't look steep in the video, but in real life were very hard to even walk up.
