Im looking into a compressor for the purpose of airing up 37s. The Viair 450P 45043 looks to be the least expensive. Is the ARB two stage necessary for 37s and worth the cost difference from the Viair? Any other options? I like to do things right the first time to save money not upgrading in the future.


I just installed the twin arb under my rear seat and I love it filled up 4 tires from 23 psi to 45 in 55 seconds each. Sometimes you had to let the compressor fill up the line (I have a long ass air hose) but I was super happy with it despite the price. (I used up all my Amazon points lmao)

Would you please show us some pictures of the installed compressor(s)?

I went with a 15lb c02 tank for portability. 4wd.com has the arb twin on sale for 465 with code on the site for anyone on the fence.

Here are my pics. Took a piece of sheet metal and bent it to the angle of the floor and cut out the space for the inverter. Bolted to where you normally bolt a under seat storage box. I bolted a cable to battery and ran it in top of the frame and made a bracket under the truck with a plug so I just plug it when I need air.

Forgot the plug. When I put it up on the ramps I'll take a pic of the underside. I took great care to keep it above the frame since I go desert running and i smash up the bottom
