Well I'm considering making up an air system for my truck and I'm wondering if anyone here has mounted an air tank somewhere under their truck? I haven't had a chance to go under and do any measuring yet to find a spot so I thought I'd throw it out here and see if anyone has done it already, if so, where did you mount the tank and what size? If I can't find anywhere underneath to fit a tank I'll have to wait until I get a toolbox and mount one inside I suppose.

Thanks :favorites13:

I've got mine mounted in the front of the box. When I had it on the frame I had issues with it rusting and getting water damage.

I'll try and remember to get a pic tomorrow.

Remove the spare tire and you'll have plenty of room.

Removing the spare isn't an option, the spare tire would be much more use to me than the air tank if one of my tires gets wrecked when I'm out camping or hunting.

That's a good idea, any chance you have any pictures of your setup?

Sorry for the delay. Here is where my air tank and compressor are mounted.
