20$ Onboard Air!
http://www.amazon.com/Slime-Smart-Sp.../dp/B000VX9DGI
I saw this at target today and thought I'd show you guys, Since I'm lazy and see no point in being all hardcore with onboard air and airing down my tires since I have IFS, I figured for 20$ (In Store) this could be the ticket.. Runs off your Cig. Lighter, puts out 100PSI I wonder if that would be enough to fill a 33" tire? Might not take to frequent use but for 20$ I might just take one for the team and see how it works.. Check it out..

Hmm Yeah about literally 2 miles away from my ORV park there's a convenient 24/7 store that has FREE air... So I air down to 20psi on the trails, drive two miles to the town, get a Monster Coffee and air my tires up, then drive the opposite direction back to town which is roughly 15 min away..

ah yeah that will be way faster and easier than that dinky little compressor. my dad has an old hitachi compressor that busted i really want him to give it to me so i can fix it up and stick it in my truck

Oh boy, have fun with that. I gave up on those then I had my 1989 2wd with tires that couldnt have been more than 24" high. I remember I was late for an exam cause I my tire was at 15psi from sitting over the weekend (pinhole leak) and it took my half an hour to fill it to 25psi. I would be a foot pump would be almost as fast.
You have a 22RE, have a look at a York compressor. It will fill my 31s from <10psi to 40psi in less than a minute, depending on RPM. https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f116...mplete-155162/

The only other viable on board air setup I can find is the "MV 150". Its less than $100 and clamps on your battery. It puts out as much air as the more expensive units, but is made in China.

i've got a compressor that looks exactly like the one in the pic. got it from Costco for like $35. if it ever dies on me...take it back. so far it's done a pretty good job. i've aired up a tire from 10psi to 30psi in about 1min.
i only bought it because a) it wasn't the cigarette lighter type and b) Costco warranty.
only downfall is no air tank so you can pop a bead if you need it. i'm sure you could rig one up.

I've had this little porto-joby one I got from somewhere since before I got my truck, but I don't like to use it. It's air's up fairly well (as it it works, but it take 4-ever with just 31's), but the thing draws so many amps it makes the 12v plugin hot...
and blows fuses every time I use it...
but it's ok though, cause true onboard air is on the way

Unfortunately, the York root was about the most economical root I found for a decent amount of flow. I air down on soft snow, but air up to street pressure for ice. The last thing you want to do is "float" on ice so on my winter fishing trips I kept street pressure all the time and traction wasn't great, as I didn't have a compressor. I wanted a decent volume so I didn't freeze my butt off while waiting in the dark (gets dark in the winter here at about 5pm).
