Both. Rock Jock and a basic air pump. You don't need on board air, just spend a little more time. Or ViaAir has some great portable pumps that are stout and don't break the bank.

Both combined.

Both combined.

Obviously, but my wallet only allows for one at the moment.

Agreed. Onboard air is inflexible, permanently attached to your Jeep, and too expensive for what you get. Portable small compressor with decent PSI does just as well, or better, and costs less. If you’ve spent every dollar you can think of on all other upgrades, go for it. If you still have extra cash buring a hole in your pocket. And sway bar disconnects are a much bigger improvement in my opinion.

Another vote for a Viair portable versus on board air. If you need to pick one, start there IMO.

And I’m partial to battery powered portable compressors, as you don’t need to open the hood and hook up to your battery. I personally use the Milwaukee m18 2 gallon compressor. Approximately the same fill rate as an arb since you have the integrated tank. 150psi.

Do you have a rubicon?

I’d say airing down gives the bigger advantage. You can live without an Antirock, airing down is a necessity for many terrains.

Then go with JKS + Viair outboard compressor.

Metalcloak has a slick disco system for the front of a JT/JL. $100. Then a compressor of your choice, the fast smittybilt is $165, a ViAir 440p is $350.. pick whatever fits your budget.

I have a portable viar its great. I had antirock on my Tj but with the JT i will be going with the Apex swaybar disconnects instead.
