Note the 4th pic down on the right. Horizontal storage appears to be acceptable, provided you stand it upright for use.

Sounds to me like you need a quality CTIS. The military use a Central Tire Inflation System on many of their vehicles. There are probably even commercial available kits out there too.

It's a major modification though so I'm sure it's just a pipe dream.

Think about it though: Approach the trail head & just set the desired psi on the dash. The system automatically airs down all tires to the desired pressure ... AND ... maintains that pressure under all wheeling conditions. Approach the trail end & just readjust the psi for road use & the system has you aired back up as soon as rubber meets asphalt.

This quote from the web page combined with Marlin's observation worries me though:

The light aluminum Floor Brkt. holds the CO2 tank at the perfect angle to expel vapor yet provide a super low center of gravity for maximum stability.

I keep mine standing up, never tried horizontal. I will say that it does vent off in the summer, and it smells like cigarette smoke, so no storing inside long term in the heat.

I don't plan on keeping the tank in there all the time anyway, but it will be HOT when we're out on the beach. Not trying to have everyone pass out while driving...
