VIAIR 10009 Installed

I received the Viair 10009 for my birthday a few weeks ago and finally had time to install it yesterday. I like how it turned out.




Have a great day!

Randy

That looks really nice. I'll bet that works excellent with dual pumps and that large of a tank.

where did you mount your system ??

Looks like a nice clean mount.
I can't pick out the location it is mounted on my small cell phone screen.

Thank you all for the nice comments, I mounted the two compressors and the tank on a piece of 3/8" plate, then I attached 4 mounting brackets to the frame with bolt holes in the brackets and the plate. I then bolted the plate to the brackets and it is very stable and neat. I mounted the system in front of the rear wheels in the huge open space on the passenger side of the truck, lots of room. I mounted the gauge and switch in the console, i can still have the tray in there and see the gauge and operate the switch from the drivers seat without removing the tray. I put it in the console because I have an aversion to drilling any holes in the dash, even if its at the bottom of the dash below the stearing wheel. I just cringe when I think about doing that. Just my wierdness showing I guess...lol. I will add more pictures today.

Thanks again for the kind words.

Randy

With an on board compressor he can run several options like air horns, air bags or re-inflate tires after a day on the outer banks (really soft sand, not like Texas sand). The double compressor will allow him to re-inflate tires much quicker. Also, he can use air tools if he needs. Once again, having two compressors makes any use of tools quicker because you don't have to wait as long for the tank to come up to pressure.

I would like to see more pictures of the mounting location, if you have them.
It looks like a nice clean install.

Mine is currently mounted to the outside of the frame rail on the passenger side. If I decide to add a set of AMP Powersteps I will have to move where mine is located.

Here are some additional pictures:

As you can see it is mounted on the outside of the frame just in front of the leaf springs.




These are pictures as I see the gauge and switch from the driver's seat.




And since I was under the truck and still paranoid about the theft of my wheels a few month ago, I installed some mercury switches and added them to my Viper alarm.


Have a great Sunday!

Randy
