I was thinking a braket to rear of cage somewhere. A way to secure/lock it would be nice since I run no doors or top for 6months a year =-)

That looks like the old air tanks we used to have at the firehouse until we switched to MSA, where did you pick that up at, I never thought of using an old air tank from the fd before, we got rid of so many, damn.

Hmm…What are the dimensions on that? If you were referring to my bottle being small as in cute.Are you keeping your rear seat? I forget do you have a seat in rear?

Mopar – That's exactly what it is.  But this one isn't one of the old steel bottles. I forgot what it's made of, carbon fiber maybe?.  It is a 4000 psi bottle, not the old 2000 psi.  Although, it hasn't been hydro'd since 2005, so I definitely won't be putting it up to 4k.  Eventually I want to do an on-board air pump, so it will only be filled to 125psi or so, but I could fill it all the way if I wanted to.  I still need to find fittings and regulators for it, so it isn't something that will be going in anytime soon.  I was able to get it for free, so I wasn't going to pass up picking it up.  I was (and still am) working on getting others.  Would probably be the old steel ones, but I will post up if I am successful.

Yes drunk, I was calling yours cute because it's small Wink  I haven't measured it, but I couldn't beat the price.  I do have a seat in the back.  Not sure if I'm going to keep it in or take it out.  It does come in handy sometimes though.  On the other hand, the gf's daughter has a pink car seat that really clashes with my gray interior!

I am not sure if that will work for an oba set up since with oba tank there is an in and out. Correct me if I am wrong. If you dont have a back seat you could easily mount in back with a giant tool box. The only advantage I see with a bigger bottle(besides free) Is not having to fill it as often. But with a 10lb one filling a 33inch tire a ridiculous amount of times a bigger one isnt neccesary. If I was to build one I would look at 5lb bottle for its smaller size it would take up even less space. I was also tinkering with the oba system using an ac pump. I even snagged one in the junkyard. But my 4 little squirrels are pissed off as it is. I am considering electric fan conversion to limit drag on motor. When I saw rocketmans set up(co2) then it hit me I could have the air if needed with out pull on my motor or a 2g winch. When this set up came up on gljt classified, I started checking prices on parts to build and It was about the same so I went ahead and pulled rigger on the deal.
