the compressors were mounted on the inside of the frame rail


but i'm gonna drive this truck in the winter and the comps will get trashed by the salt.

and the horns are going under the hood, facing forward, horns in the bed wont have the same effect if you cut me off, lol

any in box options will require the installation of 1 or more of these...


any out of box options, i will run the stainless leader hose directly to the box, hole drilled and rubber grommet to seal and protect the line

id put the,m in the box to protect them, run the cooling fan, possibly make some vents in the side of the box to release the heat?

I like the idea of having them inside the box.

any way to run a liquid cool? Maybe setup a antifreeze pump with an aux cooler? Would be a good way... But in The box for sure.

i think i found what i want, i was just throwing ideras around and i thought it would look dumb but i like it more than all the others i've put up




mounted on a plate, run the wires and stainless lines directly to the floor.
sure it takes up more space than the other ones, but screw that i wanna drag.
the box has too many questions to answer

yeah that would probably be best, that way, just make wheel wells to prevent the elements and not from popping up into the bed, and throw a color matched hard tonneau on the bed, that would look clean

oh the wheel tubs... those will be killer...
lol
round tubs, with a smaller tub next to it for the frame notch, and then a round notch across the bed with a "hump tub" for the diff, hard to describe but it'll be done right after the truck is bagged
