Is your truck all the way layed out? Looks good did not think about doing anything like that.

dnd1978 · 01-30-2009, 02:33 PM

I do not have a good pic of the back while its layed out

The solenoids fit between and under the 2 front cross sills.

You guy's aren't worried about how close everything is to the mufflers?

I was thinking the same thing, even with heat shields those solenoid valves wont last.

hey guys have a quick question about the battery mount on frame rails. On the Stepside bed applications. I have moved my gas tank between my frame rails in rear and I have put my air tanks and compressor on outside of frame rails in rear. Where would be a good place to put my battery? There is not enough room for the CPP drop out tray because the stepside beds come into much. Any help or ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks
