Yes that's for sure. The factory needs to adopt that practice!That trap door is a great idea! Especially if mounted in the bed for a fuel pump door

Thanks, I'm looking for a smaller door for that spot.
I had some free time today so I bent and dimpled up this bracket to mount the air compressor.
I still need to mount the switch and gauge but im waiting for my rock smasher tire inflation system.
with any luck I'll get the air tank mounted tomorrow.

What model viair is that? Have you used it?
It's a 450C, I have run it but that's it, nice and quiet.
Thanks, any chance you have a diy4x dash laying around.
Some more progress, was able to get the battery and air tank mount finished, painted and in place.
Completed the shield and tire rack and painted them also, along with the lid for the batteries.
Nice to be finishing some items.

The end of the tube that the air tank is mounted it will probably vibrate like guitar string over time and will weaken the metal. Might want to consider attaching that end to the frame also. Looks like that's a good place to mount it all though, plenty of space.
If you look at the first picture you will see that there is a brace right behind the last tank mount that runs to the frame.
Ah, I completely missed that.
Nicely done, that is some neat custom fab work
Back to work on the front bumper.
trimmed the rear of the front fender while I was at it.
Instead of just hacking it up I wanted to keep it factory looking.
since I cut the front I just had to cut the rear fender as well.

Damn I like the fender work!
Very impressive build, you've got some skills with fabbing!
Need more pics on the fender trim! Looks fantastic!
What views would you like and thanks for all the complements.
I'd like to see what exactly you cut out, and how you got that fender lip to match up so perfectly, doesn't look like you pie cut it... Did you just rotate that piece back some or what?
