I just hooked up a bag controller to what was there and plumed the lines

I've done several over the years. Mouny the compressor under the passengers seat. Cut the brackets off the tank and mount is using long zip ties and put it right in front of the passenger seat.

I put three 1 gallon tanks under the passenger seat and then the compressor under the drivers seat with hard lines connecting everything. I haven't put in the adjustable ride height though. I did have to raise the passenger seat about an inch for the tanks to fit though.

I mounted mine up front, I do have a hood but maybe would look ok.

I have a similar setup I installed.  I highly recommend to put some heat shield between your seat and the compressor, they get hot!

Never really thought about the heat. But I turn mine on and off with each use. If I get the adjustable ride height set up I'll figure out something for a heat shield.

Hello,  I use a small 1/2 gallon tank under the passenger seat (I don’t routinely air out, so it’s enough- the end of the tank has an air chuck I can access from the top between the side rail and seat), and mounted the compressor right in front of it. The valve box is under the driver’s seat.  My friend made me up a nifty mount for the controller.  He welded a bar that we bent to the bolt that holds the tach- this keeps it from getting sand blasted.  I used 3/8 inch lines and fittings to air down and up faster- 1/4 inch works great though too.    I use the Funco cooler up front to hold things - and I like the nostalgia of it.  Hope this helps.
