Today we smoothed out the front end added a 67 front bumper eliminating the turn signal....relocated to the headlights.....updated the taillights to Marquez billet...

Awesome congrats on the porterbuilt stuff. I have the same control arms and sway bar you ordered. Very nice pieces. I'm interested to see how the wheel sits in the wheel well too as I don't have the body on mine yet. You have made some really nice changes to the truck, I love it.

Well i mocked up my tank today ......i think i have decided to go behind the seat (see photos seat full forward and full back) since I am going with accu-air and the evo mount I can keep everything together anyway has anyone else done it this way and any comments are welcome.....thanks...

I wouldn't want a compressed air tank behind my seat and I wouldn't want to hear those compressors.

While the packaging looks great inside the cab, the noise will be horrible. You might want to reconsider this decision. My compressor is behind my rear bumper and it still annoys me.

Thanks for the input Im not set on an exact location just yet.....but tossing around some ideas my fuel tank is in the back so thats out.....I may see how it looks on the frame some where.....or maybe inside the bed .....

1stchevy · 08-22-2012, 12:48 PM

Somewhere on the frame would be ideal, it would be mounted in a place where the compressors get enough air to stay cool and you would still have an empty bed.

John next car show we go to iam parking on the opposite end from where you are parked

That truck is looking very nice sir cant wait to see your setup in person.

CC69Rat · 09-12-2012, 11:35 AM

Kinda like if you go out to pick up chicks with your buddy and he has the same shirt on that you do.

That's be funny to see these two trucks together.
