i went with this system and thus far it is working well.

It is a 2.5 gallon tank and I have it and the compressor mounted on the passenger side on the ourside of the frame rail. Plenty of room and able to be mounted properly.

I have a long bed and mounted my 4.? gal air tank behind my fender right infront of my Right Rear Wheel. Looks really clean and is protected very well.

I have seen many clever air-tanks, over the years.

Rollbars, pipe or tube bumpers, tube frames, tube cross-members, any hollow steel that can be plugged air-tight and have an air fitting threaded in.

I have even seen fake stacks that were air-tanks.

A few days ago, I saw a very long square-tube framed trailer, that the entire frame, both sides, was one big air-tank.

One back wheel had a front spindle/hub from a Dana 60 4x4, that drove a cam operated pitman-arm, that, in turn, drove the fly-wheel of a good-sized compressor, complete with a pop-off valve.

When he wanted to build air, he locked the hub.

When he had the frame/air-tank full, he un-locked the hub.

The only draw-back to his system was the tire had to roll to work the compressor.

I my 2 gallon tank on my frame on the inside just back of the drivers seat.I drilled and tapped the frame where i couldn't get my hand in behind to put a nut on.
