Good catch - needs something!!

I have drain and i had put on a coalescent filter for about 6 months as well (a long with tank drain valve) ...... i would never get anything in the filter ......so that came off and i am sticking with simple drain valve..

Cant forget a tank drain valve......

No I ment trying to find a place to hide everything is the hard part... It sounds pretty good.. I wish I was able to mount it with the horns facing forward though

I never had a problem with water in the tank.. But its only 2 bolts.. Unbolt and flip it to drain

I got everything up there. spent all Saturday trying to find a spot for everything. got everything mounted and wired on Sunday. when i turned the truck on, the compressor never turned on. so i have to check tonight to make sure all my wiring is dont correctly, and is properly connected. im bummed i spent my weekend installing these and got nothing in the end...

Well post up the pics!!!!!

this is the compressor right in front of the spare tire.


here is the tank which is right next to the fuel tank. NOTE: i did not drill into the bed of the truck when i mounted the tank and compressor. there was a piece of metal, a heat shield i think, that was on the underside of the truck that i mounted everything to.
this picture also shows the smallest of the horns.


this is driver side. the tire shown is the rear tire. the horn is facing forward.


this is the biggest horn. passenger side. the hose runs from the tank, to this horn then to the other horns, but since the horns are spaced out, i do not think the other horns are getting enough air to fully go off. i will try to get a better picture of the hose running from the tank to the horn to show this. also, when i blow the horns, you can tell the only horn going off is the largest one.

you guys got questions ask. any solutions to my problem let me know.

How are u regulating the air to the horns? Larger horn takes more air.....are lines stepped down or multiple regulators? ......not familiar with yours, but my horn has a manifold that distributes the air correctly.....

I have quarter inch NPT compression fitting which a small plastic hose attached. idk how big the hose is but its small. and there is only one hose. the hose comes off of the tank to the biggest horn, then to the smallest (which is in the middle next to the tank) then goes to the medium sized horn (which is on the drivers side). Maybe i could get another quarter inch NPT compression fitting and hook it up to the medium sized horn, that way i have two hoses, and the biggest one and medium sized one will defiantly go off.

was asked a couple questions ... so i figured i would post some more photo's...

GW valve under dash under steering wheel


Bulk Head fitting is a 90' below floor ....straight up behind the plastic at the front door pillar.....




Pictures of the Horns tucked up in front of the rear wheel well .....angled down and back to the rear tires.
