| I would by a Viair compressor before a shitty bilt.
Don't have a good opinion on that rack, pm txrubirig, he has the one Best Top makes for the interior and it will probably be similar in quality. | |

| Viair but which one depends on what size tires you are runing you don't want to buy one that's to small and over work it iwould go with the 450c model its good for up to 35" tires | |

| That's why I was looking at the 300p model. Says its good for up to a 33'' tire. Im running stock right now, but plan on getting 33's in the future... | |

| 33"s are you sure you want to spend all that money for 1" difference 1/2" on top 1/2" bottom I'd go with at least 35"s that's just me but its your jeep build it the way that's best for how you are gonna use it | |

| Yeah...i know i know. But its gonna be my daily driver, and im not sure how much time im gonna have off-road...plus i dont have the money to regear right now. I figured I will go with 35's after the 33's wear out. | |

| I used one of the 450c models for a long time and it is great. I would recommend it on a heartbeat. I have a powerplant now just to save space.
No clue on the rack. | |

I'll be regearing before I do the 37s, otherwise that might have worked out well. No funds for regearing at this time, so 37s are a ways off. Why 35s for you? Just curious. | |

| Well speak only on the rack...its a nice set, still pirky and firm with...oh shit..wait...my bad Bestop's rack...I use the rack for the rear interior...its not bad, but it is plastic...most I've had in it: 10# tank strapped in it and with 2 action packers filled with crap and the max axe...the cheap hardware (bracket) was more of the problem... some older pics: How the rack is holding up now...well its still in the Heep...w/a little less crap on it...the middle is a little bent in now due to strapping down the power tank...the rack is fine, the hardware is still shitty How well will the rack hold up mounted outside in the elements...dunno...also remember only 75lbs or limit on it | |
