Yeah, not sure if ever go 10 psi even in sand on the stock sized tires for these trucks… and I’m not afraid of lower pressure than most.

Easy fix.
This is my old rig (approx 8yrs ago) before I got beadlocks. Please laugh at me lighting it and jumping back but busting my butt. I uploaded it just for yall here since my IG is private I couldn’t share

Fire cracker works better and a bit safer.

This is 10 psi, too low for the stock size even in sand. Pic doesn’t quite do it justice. Less than 3” from rim to ground and would put a lot of pressure on the bead.
I didn’t get a pic, but 25 looked like a great sand pressure but maybe 20 of you were really desperate. 30 would hold the bead better and still provide a lot of increase sand/ice traction. 40 is still as low as I plan to run for rocks on a 70 series sidewall.

Speaking of air up/down and I’m sure this has been asked before on some forum but can anyone recommend a good portable air comp that can handle truck tires? Valor seems like a decent option.

there are a ton of options out there now. just google off-road 12v air compressor. Viair has been around for a long time and is a great compressor. i have one in my tool box now and handles 35s just fine, Not near as fast as some but does the trick. My jeep i have a dual compressor and 5gal tank onboard but filling 38in tires.
