yea, they are firestone air bags in the rear....but then i bought the In cab controller w/air compress so i can just hit the switch and air them up rather than doing it right at the bag itself......it came all together on a black bracket with the guage and switch mounted next to each other....so I split em up and mounted them elsewhere.......

you mounted your compressor where your spare goes? i was thinking of mounting a compressor and tank there for train horns.

I thought about the on-board compressor when I put my bags on about two years ago, but I just couldn't justify more than doubling the cost of the setup when I only have to air my bags up once a month or so when I carry the four wheeler. It's easy for me to just hit the air valve I installed at my rear bumper. I'm never without a compressor, I have a huge 220v in the garage and carry a 12v in my truck toolbox AND have another that's always on my ATV.

I do like the look of the way you set yours up though...
