Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Default final pictures of build........

well, it's finally done (for now). only thing i am not sure about is the location of the viair tank. i'm afraid it is too vulnerable where it sits. i am either going to get the shop to fab me up some sort of skid for it, or i may buy one from a vendor (suggestions welcomed). other than that, i am pretty happy with the way it turned out.

Looks sweet dood... I dont blame you for not liking where the air tank is. Id move it today. Another thing i dont care for is the location of the jack. Its too high for my taste, wait, let me restate that....... i really like the way it looks, but you want be able to see shit out the rearview.

Nice setup. I think the tank would be ok if you ran a skid plate between the evap skid and the bar running across the frame in that shot. How is the noise from the compressor? Would you recommend that location?

i kinda thought the rearview was an afterthought once you put the 37 on there anyway??? i will see what it is like when driving, and if i don't like it i will take it off. thanks for the heads up though. hey, why don't you fab me up a sweet ass skid for that tank??? i know you've got the skills.

There is a skid on the market that mounts that evap and air tank. Got one myself. Can't mention them here as they are not a sponsor, but it's perfect for ya. It won't last long where it is.

Id have to see your machine to take some measurements. How long is the tank? From the pics, it looks like you could bolt a tank skid through those 2 holes in the front side of the evap skid (or just drill some new holes in the evap skid) and bolt it through that cross member in the front. Probably would have to some bends in the plate to get around the tank, cuz it looks like it hangs down further than the evap skid. I may be able to do that, i have one of these......



and one of these.....



and a coupla other things....
