We decided early on we wanted to have an air compressor located somewhere onboard our project ramp truck. We also wanted be able to run other power tools without relying on an outside power source. This would require a generator.
After measuring and searching for some budget alternatives, we found a medium size compressor with an 8-gallon air storage …
A lot of the 4x4 crawler guys use an A/C compressor and air tanks bolted under the body. The biggest problem is the A/C units mostly are small displacement so it can take some time to build up pressure, but there is one BIG York they all love.
That's an awesome idea, both mounting the genny and the remote compressor.. I may have to borrow it when I finally get a support vehicle.
will you hard pipe the connection between the compressor and tank or use hose?
Plastic air lines like commercial trucks use would probably be the best to use. They're fairly easy to plumb and are suited to live under a truck.
