Very nice! is that the Viair system?

I guess you don't have any future winch plans? I have had my eye on one of those systems (someday...), but I don't know where I will stash the tank, since I have a winch in that spot.

Tell us how quickly you refill your tires after your deflated wheeling...we need the feild test report.

:bigok:

Thanks!!!

yeah its the viair heavy duty system, nah no real winch plans, i have been tossing around the idea for over a year when i ordered my bumper but i decided against it for now, alot of my friends that have them dont use them a whole lot, and i dont really do a whole lot of rock crawling so i figured id use the money elsewhere.

ill give you a report after i go wheelin on sunday with some of the other guys on the forum!!
 
Just noticed your Yellow Top Optima battery...you suck! lol! :)

Now your going to be stuck airing up your buddies too!! (sort of what happens when you have a winch also! :) )

You need to come to CO this summer for the big run we are planning...show off your rig, and get on some of those rocks. YEAH!!
 
That's really cool man. I like how you stashed the tank in the bumper, really smart since you don't really care for a winch. If I get the truck I want, maybe I'll put the tank there as well. Good work and don't forget to tell us about your next run!
 
Man Josh, that is one clean setup! I really like it, you can tell you thought about that one for a while. Now I understand why you haven't had any time to post slider pictures. :) Keep up the good work!
 
wholey signatures Batman :biggrin2:

Id be scared to put the tank there, I hope you dont keep it filled driving through town. It is a CLEAN install... Im guessing your not planning on ever adding a winch ?

There just aint much room for a tank on these rigs :mad:

That would suffice nicely. A link to one of your build threads would be more than enough to depict your truck without a full sized picture. It would help us out so we don't have to scroll through 2 pages for each of your posts.

You're build is coming along nicely though, keep up the great work.

Agreed. Only thought I have is to place it where the spare is, but that means moving the spare to the rear or the top.
 
nice looking mounting

that gauge setup looks quite nicely done.

Nice attention to detail sir. Looks professionally done.

nice pics thanks for sharing em
 
Hey [MENTION=1422]the_josh[/MENTION],

I know Im reviving this thread from the grave, but thats what happens when you search! Anyways I am installing the same setup as you and was wondering if you had put a train horn setup with your OBA and if so how you did it. Thanks again for posting this up as this is exactly what I needed to ensure the 2.5 gallon tank would fit in the shrockworks bumper!

Hey mike I didn't do a train horn, not really a fan of them. But my onboard air system is completely different Now. I pretty much changed everything about it. It not have 2 viair 470 compressors and a 5 gallon air tank in the rear next to my on board hot water shower system
