Portable air compressor

[BuckyAsh]

Looking for a solid portable air compressor for my Badlands Bronco tires. Any recommendations for a dependable off road compressor will be appreciated, thanks in advance.

I've had good luck with the Viair line, many different options.

I think mine is an 87P, works well for airing back up my stock tires on the Grand Cherokee. I'd get one that clamps to the battery terminals, not into the 12V socket.

I have a lot of Milwaukee tools, so went with the M18 portable compressor. I like the idea of it having more uses than just the occasional offroad trip. Unbelievable how quiet it is.

I went with the ARB Ford Performance one because I didn’t want to cheap out on this tool, it’s portable, and it’s suited for the Bronco.

This one right here is best on the market, IMO. Just sold mine, but only because I'm about to install the big brother today in my Bronco.

Underhood? Or do you have a sneaky location - I'm hoping to see if they'll fit underseat.

We will find out today... I just got it delivered last night about 7pm, so this morning I'll see where it fits.

I have basic fabrication abilities, so I'll be able to make a mount if needed.

Arb or viair. Get one that connects direct to the terminals. I got a cheaper ine from hf and it just overheated and died on my f350’s tires.

Got this Smittybilt compressor that is comparable to the ARB at half the cost on Amazon.

My Viair 400P has been a champ well over 15 years

I’m sure you’re going to write a bad ass Editorial on the installation, can’t wait to read it!!

I like this... With an external tank too. With a regulator, this might be a solid option for compressing a road shower setup

Here are my portable setups:
-CO2 tank (mounts on my jeep rollbar)
-Viair 400p (now my spare & kept in DD)
-ARB twin (replaced the viair)

And you can find similar units for 1/2 that price, because it's just a Chinese compressor.

But you don't get the cool Smittybilt logos.
