not sure how big it is, but its a Viair 275c and the tank is 1.5 gallons. i think im going to mount it in the bed right behind the cab, and fab up a little box out of sheet metal to protect it. and the horns will either be mounted in the front bumper or under the bed

actually its been working just fine. it takes several blasts to make the compressor come on. sometimes i think its broken cause its takes so much to make it come on. lol i love them, im thinking about adding another horn too. i wanna get some pictures of the setup but the weather has been horrible for the past week. hopefully it will clear up enough tomorrow to get some decent pics

Buckles, tell your stinkin TX weather to stop coming over here! We've had rain pretty bad the past few days and its all coming from across the "pond", even killed the power in town for 3 hours. Stop lights and restaurants were all out.
