[QUOTE="Nyseguy, post: 877131, member: 15510"] Well I decided I wanted on board air to air up when coming off the beach. After more research than I care to admit I decided on the Viair 400C dual pack. From what I've read I think they'll air up extremely fast and shouldn't cost much more than the single portable I was looking at. I know a lot of guys use the CO2, but I didn't want to worry about mounting the tank and remembering to fill it. Plus, there's a bit of a cool factor in being able to just flip a switch, plug an air hose into my bumper, and air up in a quarter the time as everyone waiting in line for one slow pump. Anyway, a couple questions for guys who have done on board air: 1. I've noticed that some of you have used the Viair mounting bracket and some of you mount the compressor directly to the frame rail. Is there any advantage of doing it either way? The mounts aren't expensive and I was thinking they might give me a little more protection from below. 2. Does anyone know where I can get a fitting similar to this? [MENTION=14140]rap67[/MENTION] has them on this truck, but I believe they came with his compressor. I'm sure there is something similar available, but I just can't seem to find it. [img]http://www.fordraptorforum.com/attachments/f5/53949d1409920241-board-air-compressor-img_0279.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
