It's a 7 gallon tank rated up to 140 PSI, The compressor at my house won't push 80psi into it and the one at the gas station tops out at 105 psi. It doesnt actually have a compressor, but it's enough to air my tires up enough for highway use after the trails. Not bad for 20 bucks at walmart, hahaha

And thanks sludge, i do agree. Flaresides rule

thanks. i was considering using one of those tanks as the holding tank for my OBA setup, but i want to run mine up to 200PSI and dont think a tank like that would handle the pressure.

Dual tanks always work.... I've seen one compressor fillin two tanks....

The thing I hate about my flarside bed is that I love it too much to see it get all beaten up on the trails....

I just realized I used ... too much. I'm sorry.
