Re: Remote air filers?
I think you're just asking where to mount these, right?
Lots of options, so it just depends on if you want them to be visible or hidden, then on your skills. You can mount it all in the bed by just drilling mounting holes, or you can mount it on the frame. We put the tank between the rails behind the rear axel and the compressor (only had 1) on the rear crossmember of my bro's C10.

Re: Remote air filers?
I mounted mine right in front of it. Looks really clean and will be easy to get to when changing the filters.

Re: Remote air filters?
Lol.......sorry, I didn't notice that I miss spelled it. But question two both of yall? The FILTERS....LOL wont get dirty under the truck like really fast? And funkytechmonkey on your pic, if I was to go the route you had yours couldn't I just delete the hose and screw the filter housing directly into the compressors its self?

Re: Remote air filers?
I guess you could... I had two pieces of extra hose laying around and the filter mount went right into the factory hole. Was like a 3 minute job to mount it there.
