Offroad Air Buddy strapped into Jeep JK
Shown Bungee corded to the side of  Jeep Wrangler

full tire air up kit for offroad 4x4
Shown with optional Quick Fist bracket, blow-out gun, and bungee cords.

*Tanks must ship empty if mailed.
If you pick them up in person, they'll be full at no extra charge

All inclusive package comes with everything listed below.

15lb Tank System = $425.00
(you can add a bracket, shelf, or powder coat)

10lb Tank System = $400.00
(you can add a bracket, shelf, or powder coat)

5lb Tank System = $375.00
(you can upgrade or customize your kit anyway you like)

Included: 1 CO2 Tank with 320 CO2 valve.
1 High Pressure, High Flow, minimum Frosting 0 -160 psi dual guage premium regulator with high SCFM flow.
1 Steel regulator guard to protect those gauges.
25' of high-pressure, 3/8" kink-resistant braided or rubber hose with Industrial (I) Quick-connect fittings (color may vary)
1 air-tool tire chuck with pressure gauge for rapidly filling your tires (250 psi capacity or higher)

*When ordering your tank let us know if you want a handle on the tank (as pictured). The handle takes up a bit of room making it more difficult to fit into tight spaces, on the shelf or rollbar, but does make it easier to carry! Also please let us know what color you would like your tank, and if we can accommodate that we will! (no charge for spray paint)

*The 10lb tank will fill all 4 of my 35" MT's from 12 psi to 33 psi eight (8) times!!  Less if I use air tools or run my water system.   I always recommend carrying a 2.5lb spare tank /just in case/ that way you are never caught offguard, unable to air all your tires back up.

#powdercoat  We can get your tank powdercoated to match any color for $200 for 99% of most vehicles. (allow 2-3 weeks lead time)

 

The premium regulators were selected because of their throughput for gas volume. At 90 psi you are getting approximately 9 SCFM

You may notice the bottom part of this regulator "freezing up" after your 2nd or 3rd tire. This is normal. Liquid CO2 is much colder than the freezing temperature of water, and you are just freezing the moisture in the air. **Don't touch it with bare skin** but after a minute it will be thawed all the way back out.

Taprite premium Regulator for Offroad Air Buddy $89.50 if sold separately
The steel guard comes installed around your regulator protecting the gauges from dings and bumps. Steel Regulator Guard for Offroad Air Buddy $19.95 if sold separately

The Offroad Air Buddy Kit includes all of the above, plus 4 brass tire deflators.

- They come with instructions, but just be aware, these generally aren't accurate to the exact PSI. I have mine all set (and locktite'd) to "13" PSI, but if I measure afterwards, I'll get anything from 12-15. That's fine because I'm shooting for 12, so I'll just let out that last 1 psi or so manually. It's still much, much faster than doing it all by hand!

Brass Automatic Tire Deflators that come with the Offroad Air Buddy Kit $19.50 set of 4 (buy a second set and set them to a separate pressure!)

Utility Shelf Left (great option for 4-door  JK, & LJ)

The Utility Shelf is available in Driver Side (Left) or Passenger Side (Right) configurations and comes complete with a Quick Fist Clamp and hardware. (easy assembly required)

Strong, stable, takes up space normally not utilized in your Jeep

NOTE: **ONLY AVAILABLE without drilling for 2007-2018 JK 4-door, 2004-2006 LJ, and 2018+ JL 4-door Wranglers at this time. This bracket can be used with a 2 door Jeep JK, JL, TJ without rear seats, but it may require drilling one hole for which instructions are not included.**

Sam's Comment:  These are okay.  I haven't had a cylinder actually fall out of one of these, but they do tend to lean, and scoot around on the bottom flat shelf.  The quick Fist should be higher to hold the tank more in the middle for greater stability.  I don't feel 100% confident with this shelf alone without a couple of bungee cords as insurance. (See PBI Bracket as un uprade from this)

WD Automotive's Utility Shelf.  Okay for 5lb tanks or less.  will require additional mods to be stable with 10lb tanks$65

Utility Shelf Right (great option for 4-door JL, JK, & LJ)

NOTE: **ONLY AVAILABLE without drilling for 2007-2018 JK 4-door, 2004-2006 LJ, and 2018+ JL 4-door Wranglers at this time. This bracket can be used with a 2 door Jeep JK, JL, TJ without rear seats, but it may require drilling one hole for which instructions are not included.**

Roll Bar Bracket (Quick Disconnect)

Great option for 5lb and under. It will work with 10lb tanks. I've seen a lot of you hardcore guys do exactly that, but we're not going to recommend it.  Aluminum can break under the stress of an impact, rollover, or crash.

$50

"PBI Customs" Bracket

Upgraded Shelf.  Completely custom re-designed from scratch with all of the lessons we learned from the original shelf.  This powder-coated solid steel piece will cup the bottom of a 10 lb cylinder and place the Quick Fist clamp closer to the middle for maximum control and security.  There is a version for the JK, the JL, and the XJ should be finalized by the time you see this!  (JK version looks slightly different in that it mounts in a different way)
