Just wondering what everyone uses to inflate your air bags. I'm not using a onboard compressor. Anyone use a manual pump?

Usually use my jump starter pack with the built-in compressor. Pack stays with the truck and works great for the bags.

Do have a bike tire foot pump as backup, but wouldn't really want to use that with any regularity for pumping them up.

I have a used onboard airlift compressor and wireless module if you are interested. Ive held it for years expecting to install in and a coil over for years but got 2 air ride rams back to back so not gonna be using it anytime soon....I dont think

I've used a bike pump, small 12v compressor, and my bigger shop compressor. I'm very careful with the shop compressor and fill with short spurts. The bike pump works fine and is easily controlled.

I run the Airlift 1000HD at around 22-25psi when I tow or haul anything heavy (like a load of firewood). I did install mine with each bag having it's own valve.

So far I really like them - takes the squat out of the 1500.

I have the 74000ez kit and it's fantastic. If I didn't, I would be using my Milwaukee M12 cordless pump. Primarily because you can set the pressure and press start2019-02-26 08.04.18.jpg which would be ideal.
