You might check Greg Smith Equipment. I've had one for 5 or so years mainly for doing motorcycle tire changes (but my own cars too) and the only thing that I've had to replace has been the air regulator.

I was on the very verge of doing this. They are local-ish to me and I had already made plans to take the trailer down to pick up the equipment when my buddy was able to snag a used coates machine for free and guess what needs to be replaced on the coates machine?.. Yup, the air regulator.

To the OP, the Greg Smith is one of the best options for affordable quality and support.
