Who makes the best? Not thinking engine driven right now. I am looking to buy 1 or 2 early next week at the latest. There is a show here on the 4th and I am stranded in the driveway on my belly. I can get 2 Viairs for the cost of 1 Zenith. Are the Zeniths really worth the money? Heeelp.

ill personally recommnend the viairs.

got a set of 480s that have been kickin arse.

a friend of mine had an air zenith when they first came out. he had nothin but trouble with it. however, when it did work, it moved some air

as much as everyone will knock em too, i had an AIM 3/4 hp compressor on my 1/2 ton for nearly 9 years. it was awesome, but it finally just gave out. i even tried to get another one, before i bought the viairs.

thats just my $0.02

Id run Viairs....i personally like the 400 better cause it faster than the 450s and 480s but its only a 33% duty cycle so you cant run it non stop....if your not switch happy you will love them and they will still take alot of punishment...i took a 4 year old set off a truck few weeks ago and replaced them with 2 new 400s....sold the old ones and there still doin work....but if you got the change buy or build an engine driven....i got an Oasis now and it works good....ill see if my phone will upload video i made few days ago

I posted some 305 40 22s on CL Wednesday night at midnite and they were sold 9am Thursday.$450 Ding Ding Ding Compressor money!!! I think I am gonna go A Z. I had 2 480cs and a single A Z is supposed to be better so ...... Was gonna get whatever Nic at Crazy Talk Customs had in stock but I guess everyone here is getting ready for the show next weekend and wiped him out. It sucks but I guess I can wait 4 days.

York makes the best compressor lol. If your gunna drop A Z type of cash in a compressor why not just get a york and be done with it??

I run az ob2s I'll never go back to viair I the ob2 is so fast and I haven't had any problems with it

I went with the ob2. 1 for now. My list is pretty long so cant really afford to splurge. Now I am trying to completely solve my tie rod issue before Saturday. There is still the slightest amount of vibration so I cant check that off the list yet.

Aaaarrrgghhhhh!!!! Saturday and still no compressor!! So between my parents being here from SC, cleaning the big girl up, and waiting on the mailman to bring me NOTHING at 2:45, I did not make it to the show. I rigged up 1 of my 480s that wont shut off directly to a switch. It will get me there and back tomorrow safely .. hopefully ... please. hahahahaha

Anyone ever run or been around a "Helix" brand compressor?? I've been seeing these things more and more. If I can't get my York to work after the Cummins swap I'm gunna have to look into electrics unfortunately. These compressors from this company seem to have some killer stats and the price tag isn't bad either. I've just never seen one in person.

Got the truck to the show and back with no real surprises. Everyone at the show was running Viair or AZ. The show put a little spark in my ass. I really want to get the truck together now.
