We had just picked up our trailer from winter storage, had stopped at a stop sign snd as soon as we pulled away it sounded like we had blown a tire. We pulled over and walked around and everything appeared just fine. We started the car and this started rattling SO bad!!! So it must have been something with that that blew...any thoughts?

The noise that sounded like we blew a tire is what most worries us...there was a pop sound and then a sound like air coming out of something. Did we pop an air bag? Or could it be a hose that the air was coming out of? It still kicks on like it should and kicks off so I am assuming it "comes to pressure".
Its possible that an airbag blew, but you would have noticeable sag in the rear, and your compressor would be running constantly. I have heard stories of how loud the airbags are when they explode; they apparently sound like a gunshot.

Looking at that pic, the fitting for the air line towards the bottom looks like it blew out of the compressor housing.
You're right I didnt catch that, good eyes.
