Co2....aint got a thing if you aint got that bling.......

The cheap Co2 setup thread timing was funny

....... too late, already spent the big money on the Bling setup.....

20# Powertank w/ the adjustable high flow valve, Aluminum mounting bracket, balistic hose assy, fittings, air chuck, regulator cover, oh and TJ roll bar mounting brackets for $400 cash. A bargain I spose.

Mounted it up to the inside of the rear door so I could access it easily through the open rear window and not have to oepn the back door or swing the tire away. Had to cut the door panel out around it to fit it the way I wanted and turned the regulator so I could get to the fitting easily through the window.

Anyone need a set of TJ roll bar mounting brackets?

off topic I know....but I had one of my dive tanks blow a burst Richard in the back of my toyota 4 runner years ago and it blew out all the windows in the 4 runner.....thought just crossed my mind when I saw the compressed air tank inside the pass compartment.............and yup, I p*ssed you have one and I dont

Don't be upset folks it aint healthy........ :twisted:

I tell you though, this thing kicks my homebrew Co2 setups Butt hard. It runs my impact gun like crazy and airs up super fast. If I had known it was such a big improvement i would have gotten one sooner.

That powertank regulator is real nice,that's why I just went straight to the powertank set-up.It seats tire beads rather good also when cranked up to the max.

At the higher pressure setting it is scary how much air comes out of that thing. :shock:

All I can say is that if you are on the fence about the cost, spend the money and get the good regulator. I Was always fine w/ how well my homebrew worked for airing up tires but I can see many more uses for this Powertank setup.

Good gosh. Un-telling what they would do to your hearing. Talk about having your ears pop! :shock:

No, I paid $400 for the whole Co2 setup w/ bracket, regulator, handle, cover, etc., brand new, never used.
Roll bar adapter is for sale for whatever I can get for it.

that is an awesome set up!! About how often.. and how much will it take to fill that monster up? I know if it was only a few dollars to fill up my paint ball CO2 tank... That is Really cool

BeepBeepJeepJeep · **Posted:** Wed Mar 26, 2008 2:01 pm

I want one now.

JJsTJ · **Posted:** Wed Mar 26, 2008 3:06 pm

THis bottle was less than $12 to fill. I can get a couple dozen of tire fill-ups on all 4 tires before needing to be refilled. I will eventually have my ARB compressor plumbed in so I can use it too so a bottle will last me a season of wheeling as long as I can keep down using it for my air impact or other uses. (rarely would need to but nice to know I can now)

I'll report back how long it ends up lasting.

Haha, glad you didnt spend $400 on those. If you read your first post it sounds like you said you got those for $400.

I cant believe you are contributing to the worlds CO2 levels! Global warming!!!! :evil:

Haha, guy on a detailing forum got mad at a guy for buying a small CO2 tank to blow water from cracks and things on his car after washing it. Thought it was funny as crap. :lol:

hey where did your interior rack go?

Never had one installed. I will be making a custom rack that is modular so half can be removable and it will include an access door so I can still get to stuff under it w/out having to open the rear door or I will be able to get to it from the interior. Of course that project is on my long list and not my short list of things still to do.
