Portable Compressors

For many 4WD enthusiasts, a portable air compressor offers the best mix of convenience and flexibility. We carry:

  • ARB Portable Compressor (CKMP12): ARB’s compact powerhouse comes in a handy carry case with alligator clamps to attach to your battery. It’s capable of inflating a 33” tire from 15 to 35 PSI in around 2 minutes. The kit includes an air hose, inflator nozzle with gauge, and various fittings. It’s rugged and reliable – one of our top sellers for Perth drivers due to ARB’s proven quality.

  • Thumper & Ironman Compressors: If you’re after value, the Ironman 4×4 or Kings “Thumper” style compressors offer high flow rates (150+ L/min) at budget prices. These units come with built-in pressure gauges and hoses. They are a bit bulkier and heavier, but provide fast inflation for the price. Great as an entry-level or occasional use compressor.

  • Twin Motor Portable Units: For those who want speed, we even have portable twin-compressor setups, essentially two motors driving air into one hose. These can inflate a set of 4 large 4WD tires in just a few minutes, saving you time when airing up after beach driving. They do draw a lot of current and need a strong battery, but they are among the fastest portables available.

Portable compressors can be easily shared between vehicles and don’t require installation – just pop the hood, clip to the battery, and go. They store neatly when not in use and can be used on any of your vehicles, bikes, etc.

Onboard Air Systems

For frequent off-roaders, tourers or those with air-dependent accessories, an onboard air system is the ultimate convenience. We specialize in installing:

  • ARB On-Board Compressors: ARB’s single and twin on-board compressors are industry benchmarks. The ARB Twin Air Compressor (CKMTA12) is extremely popular – it’s a dual motor design that delivers a massive 174L/min flow. We often mount this under the bonnet or in the cargo area using ARB’s vehicle-specific brackets. It can inflate tires lightning fast and also run air lockers (if you have ARB Air Lockers for your diffs). The ARB twin comes with an integrated pressure switch and can even power small air tools (think rattle gun for wheel changes) in short bursts.

  • Onboard Air Tanks: To take it further, we can install a small air tank (usually 4-6 liters) with your compressor. This stores compressed air, so you have immediate high-pressure air on tap – great for reseating bead on a tire or running air tools. ARB and others offer complete kits. The compressor keeps the tank topped up automatically via a pressure switch.

  • Air Hose Outlets: Our onboard setups often include remote airline outlets. For instance, we can plumb an outlet to your bullbar or rear bar – just plug in the hose and you’re airing up, no need to pop the hood. We use quality brass fittings with caps to keep dust out. Many customers opt for one at the front and one at the back for convenience.

  • Inflation Kits & Gauges: With onboard air, we’ll also set you up with a coiled air hose and gauge, plus any adapters needed for pumping up bike tires, air mattresses, etc. We can install a dash-mounted switch and even a pressure gauge so you know the system status at a glance.

More Than Just Tires

A good compressor isn’t only for tire inflation. It opens up a range of capabilities for your 4×4:

  • Air Lockers: If you plan to install diff locks (like ARB Air Lockers), an onboard compressor is a must. The compressor engages the lockers by sending air pressure to them. We routinely install ARB compressors in tandem with their air locker kits – the result is a fully integrated traction system controlled from your dash.

  • Air Tools & Cleaning: With an air tank and high-flow compressor, you can operate pneumatic tools. For example, quickly blow dust out of your air filter or use an impact wrench to undo wheel nuts when changing a flat on the trail. Some folks even use air nozzles to blast sand off gear after beach trips. It’s like bringing part of your workshop with you.

  • Emergency Use: Keep an air compressor and you can adjust tire pressures for towing stability, seat tire beads that have leaked, and even inflate camping gear. In a pinch, you might assist another motorist with a flat or inflate a spare wheel. It’s one of those pieces of kit that once you have, you’ll find more and more uses for.

Trusted Brands, Expert Installation

Coastals 4×4 only deals with proven air compressor brands – ones that can handle Perth’s heat and fine red dust without giving up. ARB is a standout, as their compressors are engineered and tested in Australia’s harsh conditions. We also trust units from Bushranger and Ironman which have solid track records.

When installing onboard compressors, our technicians treat it like a factory-fit. That means safe electrical wiring (proper gauge cables, fuse protection, relays as needed), secure mounting (using rubber isolators to cut vibration), and logical placement for heat and accessibility. We aim for a neat, OEM-like installation that will be trouble-free. No messy wires or loose pumps clanking around – everything is integrated cleanly into your 4WD.

We’ll also guide you on compressor maintenance: cleaning the air filter, checking electrical connections, etc. These are simple tasks that will ensure your compressor runs strong for years. And if you ever do encounter an issue, Coastals is here to support you with diagnostics or warranty handling.
