^^^ive been told not to set any viair at an angle only way to install them is up or down. no sides & no weird angles like at a 60 degree angle or some shit.. reason why is the head dosnt get any oil & there for makes it harder for it to run properly this positioning leads to premature wear & tear and eventually kills your compressor...

I've got my tank, compressor and valves for the rear in the fron of the bed under the false floor. Then I have the valves for the front under the cab close to the frame. I like the looks of having everything hidden. I like the idea of putting everything under the bed as well. the only thing that scared me about that is if the compressor quits and the truck is on the ground. With my raised floor I can simply remove it and get to the tank and the compressor.

^^^ you've got a good point there, i hadn't thougth about the problems i would encounter if i placed everything under the bed floor and the system failed. i also like a clean look but i'm not messing with the bed floor, so if something were to fail, i'd be stuck in a bad situation. decisions, decisions...
