There seems to be a lot of discussion randomly in other threads, I feel it would benefit the site to have all info in one thread. Plus, I need some advice/input.

I will be running a notch and helpers in a few months as I don't like the 4" without it, and the helpers will come in handy from time to time. What do you recommend, and why? I do not want to use a schrader valve rigged some where, I prefer onboard, and like the idea of the wireless, unless I get an esky handle and wire them up.
 
Not a whole lot of knowledge here, as I'm learning and looking to buy soon aswell
Just for reference for anybody new to helpers, the mcgaughys notch and mcgaughys helper bag kit bolt together
 
I've heard a lot of good things about viair as far as compressors, I think that's what peytons running on his setup iirc
 
Peyton is running two compressors.

I searched for a thread similar to this BC like you guys I'm pretty much clueless. I talked to Peyton and this is what he said I would need..

Tank compressor
Helper kit
1/4 in line
Dump valve
Fill valve
Gauge pod
Either 2 single needles or 1 dual gauge

I would be going with McG notch and helpers. So any pics of gauges or where to mount compressors would be helpful.
 
I know his compressors and tank are mounted in the spare tire area, and his gauges are in a pod in the overhead console
 
Yupp you must have ninja'd that shit while I was typing lol
45 shipped isn't bad at all I thought they would be higher
