I have a Kraken system and just want to thank the Epic Adventure team. Their videos and product made my Jeep life so much easier. I couldn’t do the epic stuff I get to do without them. If you haven’t got their system in your Jeep you don’t know what you are missing.

Just received mine and installed it tonight. Can’t wait to use it!

I just received my Kraken and am blown away. First of all the packaging is top notch - the cardboard box, kit contents checklist, the sealed plastic bags containing the major components, and the Adventure Trail Gear custom cordura zippered pouch. Awesome. As I opened the box to check everything out it just screamed QUALITY. The laser cut brackets, fittings, hose quality, etc. I can't wait to install it. Impressed.

Just installed on my '22 JLR and released the Kraken! Awesomeness!!! Took me by myself about 2.5 hrs. Loved following the video for instructions and tips. My only issue was the rear seat floor mat fitting interferes with the mounting plate. Took me a few cuss words to figure out what the problem was. Noticed in the video that the 4dr rear mat attachment is further aft. No big deal, I simply cut the button off flush. Thank you, Ginger and company! It arrived nicely packed and perfect condition. Not even a stray beard hair.

@Epic Adventure Outfitters merry Christmas to you and your families.

The Kraken arrived last week, patiently waiting on the porch for me to get home and let it breathe. As in the other comments, it was beautiful! I didn't have time to do the full install, but immediately did all the prep work as shown in this video. With only 1 problem, the install went flawless and exactly as shown on here. Problem you ask - Our JT came with the factory mud (weather tech) style floor mats - It never occured to me that the back mat tucks up under the front seat past the seat bolts which doesn't work well with the Kraken plate and compressor. I ended up having to cut the front of the floor mat off so it would line up even with the plate. Not the end of the world (although my wife hasn't noticed yet), knowing beforehand wouldn't have stopped me from getting this system, but I might have thought about a better mat solution before I was pot committed. Unfortunately it's going to be another week before I get to try it all out, but I'm excited.

Super cool system! Will be ordering one once I pick up my Gladiator later this summer!

I just finished installing the Kraken system on my 2019 JLUR and it works great! If you're going to do onboard air, this is the system to do it with!! Super clean once completed and the instructional video was spot on. I paired mine with ARB's Pressure Control system. I find the onboard TPMS not as responsive as I would like. Air up or down with presets and auto-off once pressure is reached. Set it and forget it. You guys at Epic should concider creating an add-on kit for people that want to option ARB's Pressure Control system. It took me a week to source the right parts. I would much rather purchase an add-on kit from a trusted source. Think about it. 🙂 Thanks again for a great system!!

Our great mechanics from Moab Outfitters (Russ Bartholomew) in Springville Utah installed the Kraken on our 2016 JK Rubicon. They had to modify the under-seat mounting plate specifically manufactured for JL models. Other than that, everything fit to function. We will be testing it at the Moab Easter Jeep Safari this year. This time, I will not be the last person at the end of the trail to finish inflating our 37" tires. Stay tuned for further reviews.

Hello Manny, apologies for the mix-up. Our site uses Geolocation to determine if you're in the USA or Canada and then it's supposed to display and charge in the proper currency. The USA price should be around $323 and the Canadian price is $399. We'll look into why this happened to you before we launch the next batch. As for the shipping, sending product from Canada into the USA is costly (especially with the added duties). We're working hard to solve this problem. Thanks for your feedback, we greatly appreciate it. Cheers!

What brand are the deflator valves?

Anyone using this with AEV Borah wheels know if the air chucks fit on the valve stems as they are recessed?

What do you do when you're out and only have 1 tire to inflate? This system looks like you have to have lines connected on both sides to maintain pressure. Can you connect a single line to do a single tire when needed? Is there some sort of quick connect plug you can use to close the opposite side when not needed?

@EPIC-4WD

2 жыл бұрын

Good question! You leave the red plug in one side and then just hook-up the lines to the other side. Plug a tire into one line and away you go!

any upgrades/thoughts to make this set and forget (specify desired PSI and walk away and the compressor will stop when the desired PSI is reached ? )

Nothing at this time. If your Jeep is equipped, you can use the selectable tire fill alert system, which honks your horn at the desired PSI. I've done it a few times, but prefer to just look at the gauge on the dash 6 minutes in ;-)
