Power Tank’s PT-10 air resevior

Like most off-roaders, you’ve probably gone to your local store and purchased small 12-volt (cigarette lighter) powered air pumps promising to deliver 100 plus p.s.i. Maybe you’ve even purchased the bulky red air tank that you can fill at your local gas station that holds a whopping 80 or 90 pounds of air pressure. After a full  day of wheelin’ …

However, in the case of more serious upgrades to your 4×4, some bolt-on parts can make your life easier. In this case, it was a new set of …
