Air Management Mounting ?
How is everyone mounting their compressors, valves, tank, lines, ect. Im doing full air ride and want the cleanest setup possible. I plan on using a valve block type setup, but havnt decided on one or two compressors, and one or two tanks. It will all be hidden underneath, i dont want anything mounted in the bed. So i need some ideas to make it as clean and functional as possible.
Pictures? Suggestions? Ideas? |

Re: Air Management Mounting ?
No prob. FYI I used "tank mounting" as search criteria. I knew that topic had been covered more than Air Management.
Feel free to discuss your plans and post pics when you can.

What are they using for hard line, i did do a search for that, and found arguments on copper, hydraulic line, ect. I also see where people say you cant go wrong with DOT, but the hard line is so dang clean looking.

I used 3/8 stainless with JIC fittings. It was NOT cheap.

Re: Air Management Mounting ?
I would use dot line, the stuff last forever and is quick easy and cheap you can go with black and it will blend in with your frame or colored so it will match other stuff. I used angle iron for mounting everything, its strong so your tanks are secure and its cheap. you want to mount your pumps to somthing solid "not sheet metal" so you minimise vibration and definitely use the rubber mounts that come with the pumps. if your like me and use your air ride like its a video game then you want two pumps and more air compacity, If you want to lift it up to ride height and leave it, then go with one!
