Ok.....

I bought a Hornblasters airhorn kit and the box showed up yesterday (yea me!). I was originally going to mount the air compressor using this mount (it installs the compressor up by the master cylinder and it seems like a great spot)



Then I had planned to mount the tank between the radiator and the belts using this mount. It attaches to a cross beam that runs under the radiator, seemed like a perfect spot!



The challenge was where the hell was I goint to put the horns. For those of you that dont know the horns are BIG. My problem was solved when DavidWM71 posted on another thread his horn install which put them four in a row all pointing down between the radiator and the fanbelts:



My problem is if I mount the horns here I cant put the air tank there.....

So.....

I need a new place to put the airtank.....anyone have another spot that has worked for them??? I have spent hours trying to find any other spot and have come up with nadda.

I am counting on my JK forum brothers here!!!

 

I have Kilby on board air. You could get their evap relocation brackets then mount the air tank where it was. That is where my air tank is located. Good luck.

 

River Raider has a evap plus air tank skid. However, it requires either a lift or a smaller diameter driveshaft to fit.

 

I used exhaust clamps to mount mine to the diagonal rear bar of the stock "cage". Very stable, out of the way, and easy to access.

EDIT: compressor is by brake reservoir, tank is mounted to cage. Horns are mounted where evap is stock, going to skid or move them soon.

 

I put my compressor where the stock Jack was and put a 5 gallon tank where the muffler used to be and covered it with a muffler skid from Treks.

 

I saw that, although the way the tank is mounted you would never be able to drain it without removing the whole housing. Seems like they messed up on that one. Also I am not sure if I can run the line from the compressor to the tank that big of a distance. Does anyone know if it matters how far the hose runs?

 

Rear bar of the stock cage? Not sure where you mean.

 

I plumbed and wired an air horn valve (http://www.hornblasters.com/products...rome-air-valve) to the drain line so I can drain the tank remotely.

 

Best place I've found IMO.

 

I've been meaning to get pics of all my projects up, but just haven't had the chance due to life getting in the way.

Anyway, the tank is mounted to the top of the rearmost longitudinal bar (the one across the cargo area window). The exhaust clamp bolts around the bar and the flat part of the saddle points up. Then I just drilled some extra holes in the tank mounting brackets and bolted it on.
