Air Compessor Mounting
So I am now installing my compressors along the frame rail of my 65. I am putting it on the rear section of frame outside.
I notice VIAIR has a mounting bracket....  however that is quite open. How durable are the pumps (VIAIR)? I am worried about rocks maybe coming off the rear tires etc and possibly breaking something. I build this messing around yesterday but it is completely overkill. [IMG]  [/IMG]thoughts? |

Re: Air Compessor Mounting
I like the look of that! Much more durable than what I did. I mounted my compressors behind the back tires and I was worried about the tires throwing water/rocks/dirt/etc. so I built some "splash shields" to keep them protected. I read that the compressors are pretty durable, but a little protection probably won't hurt. - Matt

Re: Air Compessor Mounting
That is a pretty good idea too... not sure why I didnt think about mounting the compressor straight to the frame....
I have one more compressor to mount....... |
