Raspy,

 

thank you for the detailed tire information.

 

what do you use to put air back in the tires after airing down for rough off roads?

 

 

Taylor,

 

Until recently, I was using a small 120 volt Senco compressor/tank unit that is for nail guns and quite portable  I ran it on an inverter when out traveling.  But now, I've upgraded to a Viair 400-P-RV.  This has a shutoff and lots of hose options.  It actually has  higher CFM than the 120 volt model I mentioned.

 

I also carry a pretty thorough tire kit so I can plug leaks, and fix bike tires.

 

I'd really like to have an on-board system built around the Viair, but I never seem to get around to it.

 

The new HQ19 has a set of high-amp wires and an Anderson plug that runs from the tongue to the batteries.  I plan to run a set of large conductors to the rear of the truck for this, and then may install the compressor in the nose of the trailer, where it has closed compartments for the propane tanks,  jerry cans, leveling blocks, etc.

 

 

  • Thanks 1

John
