To be honesty Im leaning now just towards a 20LB C02 tank with a regulator and a few different attachments. Relatively cheap, effective, and simple.

a 20lb tank should fill a good bit of 35" tires QUICK..only costs 10-15 bucks to have the tank refilled.

I have a Source CO2 tank and love it. I believe mine is either a 15lb or 20lb.

My SCBA bottle will fill about 8 tires from empty.

I could air up from 10psi maybe 20 times on one tank.

I decided to spend some $ on maintanence items, and a ZJ tie rod instead of the C02 tank.

Ill just keep using my baby compressor till it dies.

Picked up a new serpentine belt since mine is starting to slip, zj tie rod and all grade 8 hardware, and a few other miscellaneous things. My passenger fender got some love this weekend, spent a while last night trying to get it straight... its about as good as its going to get.

Ill try and post some of the wheeling pics up here in a bit. MTZs did great. Bumpstops need some attention. Took the 3" and 33s just about everywhere my 4.5 and 35s went. Was pretty happy with it. REALLY could use a locker up front though.
