I just hope leaf blower links don't start. I have a 10 gallon 125psi compressor & use it a good bit. It was $99 & its 7 years old. I have used the supplied electric box 12v air compressor that came in the trunk of my car for bike tires & car tires.
 
Do you guys have plastic bins you keep your rigs in? I can’t seem to find any with proper bottom interior width to fit a Kraton or Sledge.
 
i'd go with the kraton exb or two kraton blx
 
I was just looking for a plastic storage bin with lid that’ll fit a Sledge/Kraton size RC. The bottom interior dimensions (width) always seems to be too narrow.

I may still go with a smaller RC. But I like the 1/8 truggies a lot.
 
Having trouble finding the right size plastic bin online. Tried Amazon , Lowe’s and Home Depot. The bottom interior width of the bin is the issue. The width of the Sledge is 18.1” so I figure I need at least 19” wide inside the bottom of the bin for clearance. Outside dimensions can’t exceed 25”W x 40”L. Height just has to be at least 10”. The top of the bins are larger than the bottom.

I’ll keep looking and I’ll take a drive to HD and see what they have in stock locally. I still may go with the Rustker Ult in which case the bin issue would be nonexistent since it’s a smaller truck.
 
Just curious, why the insistence on a plastic tub?
Haha , I knew this was coming. I guess it’s OCD. I like the thought of having the truck in a protective “garage” of sorts. A bin with a lid would be perfect.

My son asked me the s same thing 🤣
