How did you set up your air tanks and compressors?

Are they accessible through the bed?

Bed lifts?

I want to see them all, good ideas and those that you regret for whatever reason.

Nice Idea, How did you determine where the lift rams were to be placed?

Is it just a standard hinge? is the entire bed floor removable if you need to work on the system?

The gas shock placement had to do with height on opening and smooth operation on closing.

The hinge system is the same as a hard tonneau cover, but modified slightly for my application.

Yes, the floor is completely removable and I have used it as a picnic table once. One end stayed on the truck and I had two makeshift legs for the other side. I slid it out to where I needed it and had a good ol time at a truck meet.

I wanted an air ride set up on big red, until I was quoted starting price of 9k in Australia
