Looking for some ideas and wanted to see how you set up your air management, that is the layout of your tanks, compressors, valves, etc.

Let's see what your great minds have designed.

Who was the vendor that came up with something like a drop down battery box? They aren't producing it yet, but it sure was slick.

Accuair all hidden under the cab and i have a drop down battery box on the other side.

dznucks · 11-02-2012, 07:07 AM

I mounted all my Accuair components in a box. Compressor is in the same location on passenger side. Two three gallon tanks mounted on the frame rails. The supply side of the system is all 1/2" hard lines supplying both inputs to the valve block, the feed side is 3/8" plastic lines.

Yessir. We actually have a couple sets in stock!

tk-mpl · 02-26-2013, 05:45 PM

My system is a mess compared to these. I need something smaller to go under the truck. Any suggestions for a stepside with a rear mounted fuel tank. I would like to upgrade to dual compressors to have a faster recovery time anyway.

Will these work with ridetech kits?

SBC · 11-02-2012, 11:42 AM

I don't know for sure. They are designed to be used with a 3 gallon tank... and I have mocked it up with the aluminum ridetech tanks, but not sure if the air pod would fit as a unit.

jimmydean · 11-02-2012, 11:58 AM

Mine will be similar to this only mounted to the frame rather than the bridge. I am not using the Accuair mount because my tank is too big. But it will be similar.
