I went with a ezflate moab. I saw it in a YouTube comparison video it was one of the fastest to fill tires back up. It looks the same as one sold by Napa and there's is quite a bit cheaper. I'm not sure if there's a difference between them. But the ezflate has worked great so far.

 

I went with this EZ Flate with the recoil bundle. Looks like a great unit. I’m excited to finally be able to air down (been wanting to since the 90’s with my first YJ!)

Thanks for the suggestion.

 

Pricey but the ARB twin is highly recommended and alot of mounting options if you go that route. If not always used or need to mount it, I know my smittybilt compressor (Model #2781) which was the first one I bought and never failed me and aired up my 35s quick. I had to open up my hood and use alligator clips but for the price point you can't beat it. I know NAPA sells a similar model from "maxi trac" and so does rough country.

 

I run a viair 450p. I like it a lot.

 

Got a SuperFlow HD 12V compressor about 6 years ago. It works like a charm. It inflates each 35-inch tire from 15 to 30PSI in 2 minutes.

Smittybilt sells a similar compressor under its brand name. I would avoid buying that one. When you store it in its bag, the air hose bends right as it exits the compressor, which causes it to break. But because the air hose is permanently attached, you cannot simply replace the fitting.

The SuperFlow compressor above addresses this defect by using a detachable air hose.

Whatever you get, make sure it connects to the battery terminals. Anything that plugs into the lighter outlet will be too light duty.

Good luck.

 

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I went with the EZ Flate M.O.A.B.

 

York ac compressor on my TJ for onboard air

 

My late uncle used spark plug replacement air pump

Looks like someone is making them again

Kick-N-Fill Air Pump

This is our take on an old HD tool. It’s a spark plug tire pump that works off your engine compression. All you have to do is remove your spark plug and thread our pump into it. Perfect for those roadside repairs. Fits all HD engines from 1948-2016 with both kick and electric start. Also fits...

I know the old version used engine compression to move a small piston that pumped clean outside air

course back then no worries about generating cel for a misd

 

The all top compressor on Amazon is pretty good. Only reached duty cycle once but that was after airing up all 4 33 inch tires then immediately airing up 4 35s as well.

 

Hope you are as happy with yours as I have been with mine.

 

We picked up a Viair 400p on sale - not cheap, but when we come off the trail or beach we fill up the 35's in 10 min...

 

7 years ago or more i bought the 450p but they cost far less then. Its hard mounted under the pass seat. so the base plate it came with deleted. like 11 pounds.

That MOAB one is 25 pounds, adds up when packing a jeep. large needs to be stowed well. But looks to have a lot of air, wonder how it takes use. The 450 p is rather quite. even in the cab. before the 450 i had a few of the China made ones then were like 40 bucks back then. Looked like most then at the price. I bought one and it did well for a year so i bought another. two is faster then one right. the second one the newer tossed a rod in like 6 months. followed by the first one like 2 years or so latter as well tossed a rod. They sound like a rod when they toss as well...

I have a Karnage welder that is 45 pounds. Its about the same size. But that is a Mig, in a box. That moab i wonder if it would hard mount under the seats i have. They are not stock and there is enough room for that 450p some welding cables and tire kit and a extra tow strap. That air would take the whole space i bet.

 

The welder looks great! I didn’t even know they made these. Just another thing to add to my wishlist.

 

I went down this rabbit hole after someone posted about Morrflate. Watching videos on youtube, I found comments about this company by the name of Desert Armor based in Arizona who makes a very similar product. I wrote up this comparison on my spare time to help me make a decision. No disclaimer needed, I'm not associated with any company. I think both companies seem to be home grown with great customer service that listens to their customers.

 

I purchased the Viair 400P a few years ago and it has worked flawlessly ever since.
