Hey guys I'm looking at doing a air tank setup do I just use a normal 12 volt compressor and get a tigerz11 tank and run a pressure switch or does it need a special air compressor

Sounds right if its just for lockers, the hotdog shaped tank 1 gal I think on the inside of chassis is the go.
compressor under the bonnet, relay, switch on centre console,
Be careful mounting cheaper units under the bonnet. There temp cut off can be around 60-70 degrees, and after a good beach flogging they don't wanna work.. (found out the hard way..)

Also dont forget a one way valve on the air line to stop air leaking back through the compressor. You might consider running a manifold so you can run front and rear
air outlets. Had them on last 4x4, best thing ever, plus only need short piece of hose
I only wanna use it mainly for tyres and air blower etc I was just gonna mount it in the back
My neighbour was telling me there's now rock sliders that are designed to store compressed air in them, so basically long skinny tanks, thought that was a pretty clever idea if your in the market for sliders too possibly
The budget does not permit for them unfortunately
Is there room for a tank in the area up in behind that rear loop.
If you're running a tank ,you'll need a one way valve, only used mine for airing up
and blowing duties, was even capable of running rattle gun, but better options these days.
I had those front/rear outlets, as sick and tired of popping bonnet all the time.
X 2 with Big Westy don't buy cheap it wont work under bonnet if tripped.
