I have searched over and over but cant find a pic, can anyone post one of where they mounted a tank under the xb.

thanks in advance,
chris

 

I dont have a pic but I had my 3 gallon mounted on the floor pan in between the evap and the rear bumper.. Fit ok there and the tank lined up with the bottom of the bumper even with the feet on the tank

 

i have a pic or two just gots to dig them up

 

I also have pics. Just that they are stuck in my camera!
Will post as soon as I get them out.

 

the same ^ ive got a 5 gal tank aqueezed up there w/residential earthquake strapping (kinda ghetto) but it works for the time being

 

Great thread, I'm also interested in pics.

 

As promised, here are pictures of my air tank and related equipment. Check out my post on where I found a location for mounting a air horn!

is that a 3 gallon tank? do you have a pic of it all the way down from behind? does any of it hang down farther than the body?

 

I think that it is a 3 gal tank.
It barely hangs below the rear bumper. I'll post a picture tomorrow.

 

Nice pics TurboTighe, can't wait to see more.

 

that's just what i wanted to see i never thought about building a bracket and not mounting the legs of the tank to the bumpy uneven floor

thanks,chris

 

Meant to take more pics, but for now here is the shot from the rear with my bags all of the way up. As you may see from my reflection on the bumper, the shot was taken from bumper height.


For got mention that I also have a nitrogen tank mounted on my roll bar that (when empty of nitrogen) provides me with additional air capacity.

 

Very cool setup. You did a good job of getting all that under the car. What PSI are u regulating the nitrogen at?

 

I've got mine mounted on the inside, and my sub box built around the tank. The only problems i've had is my compressor taking a long time to fill the tank when it gets below freezing outside

 

Regulated at around 200psi. A LOT more responsive than with the compressor.
Sucks that it costs $21 to fill the tank. Doesn't seem to last long when you play with it!

ShortBus05 - Did you cut your rear area floor?
Do exhaust fumes get into the car?

 

a small hole had to be drilled for the steel braided line to go into the tank, but it was just big enough for the line to fit in. I've had no problems with exhaust gettin in the car, but then again that may be because my tank is 90% enclosed by my sub box

 

$21??!?!?! damn we pay around $35 here in hawaii

 

I was directed to use this thread for air setups for show, innovative placement etc. Any cool show setups for xB's?

 

Nice thread. I'm wondering how i'm going to fit my 5 gal under my car ... maybe i should loose the spare tire and put the tank there idk ....

 

My cool setup yo..... All my valves are behind the tank, the 2 compressors in front of the tank.
