    I'm toying with the idea of carrying a big bottle of nitrogen to cater to a variety of tasks such as shifting the lenco, driving logic devices, various cylinders, tires, and certain pit tools. Any up/down side to doing so instead of using either CO2 or compressed air? Perhaps a drop of lube from time to time is required due to the dryness of nitrogen?.........

    Pressure is pressure, it will work fine. A lot of the tire people are now mounting car tires with it. We used it for Alky dragster tires in the early days, mostly because we didn't have a compressor in the trailer.
    We actually found it to be a plus at night when you have to keep adding to the tires in staging. It almost stopped that.
