    Oh, nice. When I get my arb in the rear I was going to use the little single compressor they have and stick it in my engine bay. I'm just wondering what the best option for airing up tires and all that would be since I don't have a place I can really mount the tank permanently.

    If you plan to only run a compressor try to save up for the dual. Or go C02 and just mount the tank in when you go wheelin. My CMKA12 does ok doing two tires; but it gets really hot when trying to do all 4.

    Do you think the dual would be able to air up 33's without overheating and shutting off? I don't mind if it's not lightning quick just as long as it doesn't shut off from overheating and leave me waiting for it to cool down. I like the idea of the C02 but it will probably be easier to just run the dual compressor.

    C02 is the easiest thing, and takes 5 minutes to air up all 4 of my 35's :cool:

    yup! I made the switch to c02 for airing up tires and it's way faster. I do keep my on board air for normal operations when I'm not wheeling. I only put the c02 in when I go off road.

    It was just that way when I mounted it, does yours differ?

    No Problem!

    Think I'll start a section with reviews of the products I've used. Seems it may be useful for others on the fence about what to get.

    Every time I start to read this build I am like "that is exactly what I need to do" then by page 10 I am like "but how does" and "but where do." Then I get to the end and my mind is blown and I realize I will never do all of that stuff to my truck! If I ever come across a shit load of money then maybe. For Now I will just keep rereading this thread and dreaming.

    I am not sure if I have commented before but great truck. I love the functional aspect that your truck has.

    You don't really want it flush or when you wheel, the body and bumper will flex and might break your flares off.

    Based off of your gallery pics, it's right where it should be. Most of the picture I've seen of Alex's truck with the bumper, it's when he is wheeling and the bumper is flexing with the body, which makes it look like it's flush.

    If that's not it, then :confused:
