OBA -> On Board Air Mega Thread & BS

Just like @THE CALICO did. Those 4 bolts above the cubby are holding the compressor to the other side of the composite bed hidden behind the fender.

NICE! Us access cab guys need to be clever and make use of all the unused space in our trucks

 

Haha yes. This is why we are cooler than those DCSB folk...

 

...yes, but not the DCLB

 

I don't have a quick connect in the cab of mine and don't miss/need one. @dakotasyota He nailed it on the placement.

Looks good! Is that your quick connect in the bottom left of the cubby?

Yeah it keeps it interesting!

 

Yeah that's it. Love this setup!

 

Where did you end up putting your switch? To the left of the steering wheel?

 

any body have any good pics on where they can fit an arb twin compressor in the engine bay of a 2015 tacoma trd 4x4 off road with tow package?? please and thank you

 

So another question I'm stretched to my limits.

VIAIR Quarter Duty Onboard Air System

This is a 120 psi tank. a 25% compressor and is rated for 150 psi and 10 minutes of continous use. The tank takes 2 min 30 sec to fill.

Is there any reason this could not inflate tires. There is several mentions of not being suitable for tire inflation on the viair Web site. But the internet says fine for 31s (on Amazon) I had 31s run the same psi as my 33s now. It doesn't make sense to me why it could not be used for inflation. Any ideas as to why?

The viair portable compressor is labeled for 33s is also a 25 % compressor. Any thoughts?

 

I've seen people mount the single in the engine bay but not the twin. At least not without modifying the stock mounting locations of several components.

 

yeah i tried mocking up like 3 templates today, got close to fitting in the left hand corner behind the intake tube, but it still stands up to tall and hits the hood when closed.... maybe if i add 1 inch hood spacers like how honda peeps do

ps: totally kidding about the spacers even tho it would work hahaha

 

It will take to long to fill 33's back to 34psi that's why they don't recommend it. My 450 takes about 10mins to fill my 33's back from 15psi I would spend a little more and get a better compressor. If I had the money I would run two 450's

 

Not sure if this is a 2015, but here is one I've seen that looks pretty sweet. Link to thread HERE

 

That's pretty slick.

 

Yeah that would be perfect except I have the factory air pump in that spot alond with some other ballist looking thing

 

This is what I'm dealing with lol

 

There is always the bed side cubby hole. Or behind the seat

 

Not the ARB compressor but an idea for it.

 

I mounted a tank slightly bigger than that right under the pocket to the underside of the bed. That way I could still use the pocket.
