Roger Frazee Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 I can't get my 24' car hauler into my driveway to top off the tires, using my home air compressor; and maneuvering it close to a filling station air hose is all but impossible now days. Of course I can use a portable tank to inflate the tires, but that's a hassle. Is there an easy way to bring my trailer and an air source together? Where do you get your air?

Larry Schramm Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 I would buy a smaller pancake compressor and run an extension cord from the house to the street if possible. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countrytravler Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 (edited) Get a longer hose. I have a 300 ft hose to do the job. Edited March 25, 2018 by countrytravler (see edit history) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Bollman Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 I carry a small 12v air compressor to keep my trailer tires up if I'm not close to my larger compressor. Don't go to cheap on the compressor. This is the one I have https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005ASY23I/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Frazee Posted March 26, 2018 Author Share Posted March 26, 2018 Thanks Jim. Most of the 12-volt compressors I've dealt with are weak and take forever. That unit, however, looks like it would get the job done. I'll order one and give it a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

real61ss Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Most small compressors won't pump enough pressure to pump the tires up. I take my trailer by the garage that does my regular auto repairs. My trailer tires are inflated to 110 psi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Yaros Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Best solution would seem to be, as suggested, get the proper length of hose needed for this job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimus Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 The Stanly Fat Max power station has done a great job it goes where it needed . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
