Where is a recommended location for the compressor? We live in rural community so gravel roads are traveled. Installing on 2011 Dodge 3500 with diesel motor.

I installed the compressor under the driver side on the frame of 2012 Ford F250. But I made a cover over it just to protect it from the elements. The cover is open on the back side.It works well.

I place it in the motor area of the truck. Did not take up very much room and compressor came with extra filter.

I'm sorry I can't answer your question. I bought this for my son as he tows a camper which is a bumper pull and he was having such bouncing in the truck but this one was not the right one for his truck so we had to return it and he's not sure about getting another one. His friend gave him some bumpers that go by the shocks which help the bouncing. Good luck.

I have my installed underneath the dash board. Simple to get to and it works great.

The compressor doesn't have a battery. It runs off the 12 volt port (cigarette lighter) in your vehicle.

I used my air compressor. Too bad they didn't come with tires that never go flat. I might switch mine with those. Harbor Freight if you have them near you has tires that never go flat and you don't have to inflate.

Hey buddy I mud my jeep and drive through water and it hasn't failed yet. Just mount the compressor somewhere dry!

This thing is overkill for that. But yes, if you have a huge place to mount it. I run my entire shop off of this thing. You might be more interested in something smaller rated at 2000-3000 to do what your wanting. I actually run a small pancake compressor off of a good 1000 and it does fine but I can only run one tool at a time off of that. If you get much larger you will definitely notice the load on your vehicle. I hope this helps!

I couldn't say because there is no indication either on the compressor or the instruction leaflet. Sorry!

My answer is to find the best permanent place for the outside unit. It's always best to leave the sealed system connected unless there is no option except to move it. And, I agree with other answers. The unit is designed for lubrication of the compressor to be in its upright position.

I mounted the air compressor under the truck just behind the cab. I have not had any problems in the last year.

You can find this from Northern tool, Amazon and tooltopia. It is a must. Ingersoll Rand will only honor the waranty on the compressor if you use their start up kit. Go on Factoryauthorizedoutlet.com for the best price and the proper kit. You can find everything from air tools, compressors and anything else. Hope this helps

Not exactly sure what you mean. If your talking about a mobile compressor like something you would take off roading I dont see why it wouldnt work just fine. No air is released until you squeeze the handle. On the other hand are you saying your compressor is continuous and has no relief?

Ive seen it mounted on a scion small suv thing. Mine is mounted in place of my spare tire. Do mind having the air compressor mounted inside in the rear of the truck space? If you can, it wont be a problem at all I imagine. The shop that installed mine charged 80 bucks an hour, and took roughly 4-5 hours. Wired it to my horn, with a cut off switch that turns it back to a normal horn. Hope this helps.

Are you using it as a air drain or moisture drain? Moisture drain requires installation at the lowest part of the tank. Multiple fitting will allow you to mount it to most any compressor.

compressor needs good amperage, might need at least a motorcycle battery, at walmart approx $45

Nope, nothing. Wouldn't you think it would? Anyway, great little compressor. Just plan a trip or two to the hardware store before you can actually use it.

The compressor needs to be mounted in a dry clean location per directions. I mounted it on my frame rail out in the elements and have had no problems. It has been wet, icy, sandy and muddy. As far as mounting it under the hood, this compressor is not huge but it's not small either. Room may be an issue but if it fits do it. Just steer clear of the exhaust.

if you have a separate potential relay and a start capacitor with bleed off resistor, then you have the best solution. make sure capacitor is matched to your compressor requirements,
