I have not found a need for another portable compressor. I can inflate my front tires to a Max of 114-115 lb., if needed, with the standard air outlets on the front and engine compartment. The trick to the situation is to have a gauge on you line.
I have to drain down the coach air pressure to about 80-90 lb., then the compressor kicks in and pumps up to about 120 lb. then cuts off. If you inflate the tires while the coach compressor is pumping up to 120, with the inline gauge, you can monitor the pressure in the tire while the air is going into the tire. If you don't have the gauge it's kind of a hit and miss situation, because you don't know when you've released enough air from the line to get the compressor to kick in and start pumping. I got the "gauge-tire nozzle" combo unit at a Walmart store.
Best of luck Den

David, look under the front of the coach on the drivers side. You will find three ports where compressed air is available. You can use one of them for your air, I think it is the outboard one that CC recommends to use, I would have to look at mine. You can run a hose from there to the inside of the compartment in front of the wheel and install your air fitting. There is enough pressure there when the engine is running to inflate your tires.
Don - Oh how I wish that CC or CCI would maintain a "book" or some form of repository of all these "things" that we hear of 3d or 4th party that CC recommends to use. That would be at the top of my Xmas Wish list and do hope that CCI gets and reads of copy of my comment. I'd even add to it if there was some repository that I could direct such to. Ron
