    Judging by the message he sent he doesn't want to be open/us there.

    If there's no YES tomorrow, in my book, that's a No.

    If it's a No, I won't go back till after he sells the place. That's straight up bull shit.

    Depends on the amount of rain. Right now it's looking like .14". That's dew, not rain.

    That's at least a leaning towards yes and not no.

    This is how I'm looking to mount mine...on the bedside between fender and bed. Lots of space up there and with the cubby in place, it all but seals the compressor off from the elements.

    Yeah to me that is the end all be all of places to mount. How do you plan on getting it up there / drilling the holes?

    I'd much rather it be under the hood but I have the damn abs controller on the passenger fender. There looks like there could be some space but it would be very tight.

    Like you, the bedside is a last ditch. I'm thinking I'd like to have a backing plate made so the weight of the compressor isn't fully on the plastic bedsides. Also, looks like plenty of room, when cubby is removed, to reach up from under the truck to hold it in place while a second person threads the nuts and bolts from inside the bed through the cubby. Haven't given it much more thought than that since I'm not in too much of a rush yet to install it since lockers aren't planned for install until early summer.

    Worst place for a compressor is probably under the hood. All those heat cycles can't be good for it.

    That said my micro ARB for my lockers is under my hood

    Meh, heat isn't good for it but nobody has had any real issues because of it being under the hood. And when its on i'll have the hood open anyway.

    Behind the rear seat is a pretty good spot for it. Only downside is the gear oil smell and mess.

    Let me know when you find BSP fittings. I looked around for a while but not much luck.

    Don't mind the smell and a quick wipe every few months and I'm good.
    Haha! I wish I had a RCSB with the 4.0 or maybe a 5.3.
