Viair ftw!

They have a proven track record, fully rebuildable, great warranty, great customer service!!!!

well if no one else is going to say it i will... i would highly recomend staying the F away from the air zenith... far to many buddies spent far too much money on those and then had to go out and buy viairs... these NEW AZ arent with out their issues .. was told this buy a buddy who sells them.. just fyi.. go viair.. you will be happy today and tomorrow..

Viair 480s here. Tried an AZ once on a customers truck.Took it off a month later and replaced with 2 Viair 480s.Had 2 Viair 380s on an eight gallon tank on my 88.I also still have 2 old thomas compressors from my first bagged truck back in 98 and they still work flawlessly!

i have a thomas compressor.... its a beast... but im currently running stock a/c comp converted to grease... it fills my 5 gal tank from 0-200psi in about a min.... and then from 165-200psi in about 30-45 seconds....

i had two viair 450's since 2002. they definately have slowed down, but they are out in the rain sun dust and whatever and keep pumpin. i had an AZ with no problems at all. i'm switching to an EDC with the AZ as the backup and ditching the viairs.

i am going with an engine driven they fill the tanks faster. and less noise.
