Can anyone tell me what air compressor is the best to use. It takes forever for my compressor to get up too 140psi...It takes 140psi to get my front off the ground.

York 210. Fills my 2- 3 gallons tanks to 200 PSI in less than 30 seconds and doesn't make a sound.

I dont think most people are running these, but they do work fast.

Oasis are pretty nice....get ready for a kick in the wallet. I used two Viair 400c's for a couple minute fill time and I'm on my way

I agree. I had one on another truck that could fill airbrake tanks that I used in 30 or so seconds. Could also run air tools too!

Deleted - this is not a shop compressor you are talking about obviously. The "Suspension" forum might get you better responses.

So the York 210 is a air compressor, Volvo???Right? I looked on ebay, not a bad price just have to find a way to set it up.

I would like to spend under $300.00 if possible.

I tested my compressor yesterday, I have a 3 gallon that I just put in and it still takes at least 5 minutes to fill. Anyone has ideas on what I can do to speed it up?
