noob questions...bagging 97 swb

[fightclub1817]

So this is my first bagged project and I've done alot of research on this site and have found alot of answers...still have some questions.
Advice needed on where to locate my tank and compressor...as well as valves. I kinda wanted to hide them but was unclear as to if it was a good idea to mount my compressor to the frame...does this mean I cant drive in the rain? Also is it better to put the solenoids all together in one spot or nearest the bags they go to?
Please excuse my ignorance and I hope I didnt overlook these answers in the stickys above.
Thanks

Chris

:fail: it finally occured to me that after all my "research" i overlooked all the pictures of compressors in the beds of pickups....duh...:bhb:

Viair makes pretty bad ass mounting brakets that will work with every model of compressors they have :http://grunionfabrication.com/viair-compressor-mounting-bracket-p-2272.html
Do not mount them in the bed you have a full size not a mini truck!!
Everything on that truck will fit where the spare tire is.
Everyone starts somewhere just make you sure you take your time and do it right

You can mount the compressors on the outside of the frame rails behind the rear wheels with the brackets from viair or make your own. tanks will fit in the spare tire spot along with valves. like tukin 24s said, take your time do it right. Good luck.
