Need some air tank pictures

Doing my Air Rid install and I am looking for some ideas on how and where to mount the air tanks off the frame?

I have a blazer tank going in so behind the diff is out.

I would like to be able to mount my two tanks, two compressors and two batteries.

I was thinking of where the stock dual tanks were, but I am not sure if there is enough room. I don't have the cab on the frame right now so it's kinda hard to know where it will all fit....

Thanks for the help

I would show you mine but it won't help. That Blazer tank pretty much dictates your options. Your going to have to mount them beside the frame in front or behind the tire
