What did you do to your Raptor today? (Gen2)

[Nex]

Is your tank an Amazon parts kit you put together? I’m wanting to do that. I think Keep it Dirty had a YT video with links.

The regulator is from Amazon, the tank is from a local welding shop. Part of their exchange program so I always have a tank in in certification.

I have the same set up, except I have a second tank in the garage at all times. With the F350 airing up 35" tires from 25 to 70 would drain a tank in two trips and I was always rushing to get to the welding shop before another outing it seemed.

With Raptor going from 17psi to 35ish, the tank lasts about 10 trips.

Got new driver side valve cover and rear pinion seal replaced under warranty.
Cracked windshield losing a game of chicken with a stone at 90mph.

Once you go CO2 I can not imagine going back.
I have a this. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078W2FZNZ/?tag=fordraptorforum-20

I have a mechanical gauge I put in the middle port. (No batteries).

On the center inlet port I put a shut off valve.

The two outer ports I have hoses going to two tires ( F350 I did front to rear different psi, raptor I do same psi all around so I hook to one front and one rear at a time)

To air down, take about 3 minutes a side (Raptor)

To air up takes about 45 seconds to 60 sec a side. (F350 was about 90 seconds)

Previously on the F350 with ARB compressor was about 7 minutes a tire.

(Will possibly post picture tomorrow, but tons of YouTube videos about airing down on jeeps)

I even gave away my Craftsman garage compressor I'd had for over 20+ years (still rockin) after going CO2. Its just THAT much better! I just trade in bottles like others and have a rotation of bottles at the house to make sure i don't run out.

I put nitrogen in mine - better for tires and the shocks require it
