Looks good Davo!! I know who to look for when my tires need some air.
 






you got it Billy! i got your new cell # as well
 






alright...cool!
 






Do you guys know if you can fab up an air tank? I was thinking of something non-conventional like having a shop fab up one that I could fit over the wheel well in the rear and hide it inside the panel. Other thought was have one fabbed up to fit snuggly under rear of vehicle where spare tire was and high enough not to get punctured.

I was hoping to run some coil hose to ports at front and rear of vehicle underneath for easy access. Want to keep it well hidden and maintain all my truck interior rear space clean and clear.
 






i guess you could if you had 2 metal bowls and a metal tube. you would have to find a pretty good welder to make it air tight but it could be done. cheak of the prices and if it is over 60 dollars just buy on. if less fab up one.
 






Bowl and tubes would make it round, I was thinking maybe squarish shape and having it made out of aluminum.
 






It's definately feasable, but you'd better make sure those welds are as strong as possible, because the pressure in the tank can break weak welds like nothing. The last thing anybody wants is an air tank explosion in their truck. :eek:
