Another vote here for piecing together your own CO2 tank setup.

I think this is the thread that lead me to build my own. https://www.wranglerforum.com/f274/my-new-little-air-up-system-1932562.html

I shopped around at draft beer supply places and bought my tank full for ~$90. It's an uncommon short 15lb tank that I jumped on strictly because of it's size/shape. As previously stated can get several fill ups no problem. I have never actually ran it all the way empty just because everytime I know it's close I'm about to leave on a extended trip that will require more fill ups then I have left. Easy to get filled as well for less then $20.
Thanks Gary and KP. Read the thread! I’ll get Gary’s suggested pieces; will wait for some to suggest best mounts for it. I’ll go to the Jasper Jeep weekend a lot less worried if I have my own tank!

You used to get the touch up paint with your vehicle.
I guess if they make the touch up paint look like a rocket, people will think it's worth the $20....:)
Still wondering about the "landing gear".

if i recall correctly the landing gear serves a purpose, keeping you steady or something

It is a 4 in one kit. A tip to clean up scratches, fine scratch tip. brush and clear coat with brush. Landing gear still a mystery.

So will all of us receive one in the mail? That would be pretty cool.
My sales guy grabbed me one but it definitely doesn't just come with it

I also built my own CO2 tank setup, except I used a 15lb tank since I have two wranglers. Going to use the 15lb tank in the JL too, just need to get a good mount for it.

Looks like Powertank has a decent looking mount that uses the hardtop mounting bolts and then bolts into the wheel well. They says it's for the 4 door; I wonder if it will work on the 2 door without the rear seat?

In my JKUR, I use a great bracket from Springtail Solutions that a Powertank bracket mounts to. It holds the CO2 tank perfectly.
