I set up my on-board air system and am very happy but would like a little more pressure for using a blow tip to clean sand and a bit faster on the fill of all 4 tires. I use the 4 tire hose system from EZ-Flate
I am looking to add a tank to my on-board air compressor. Where have you mounted the tank?

Mounted twin compressor and the tank underneath the body next to gas tank, and ran the intakes via remote hoses to filters mounted inside the vehicle under rear passenger seat. No issues after wheeling in all kinds of weather and environments.

Glad to see ya using our compressor mount. I don't recall seeing an order for you coming in though?

Gluck finding a spot for a tank. NOT a lot of places for it. I'd see about making a bracket for the frame rail. That's how Kleinn does it. They make these u-brackets that slip onto various frame rails for their onboard air compressor/air horn systems. Nothing for the Broncos though that i've seen. But if you took some metal and bent it in a U shape you could through-bolt it using existing holes in the frame to hold it up and then leave 4 studs on the bottom for some bolts to go into (through the compressor mount).

Tricky on the broncos though, there's just not a lot of room

Do you have a picture you can share? Did you run metal hoses?

Plenty of spots for a tank if you’re creative and don’t limit yourself to ARB. Turns out, air is pretty bendy. Can fit in all kinds of shapes. Relocate your muffler and you’ll have more options. We went a different route and put a winch in place of the muffler instead, but despite that we have 5.6 gallons of compressed air storage. Seats still work as designed and the dogs love sitting up higher in the back to look out the window.
