Air tank ideas.... ---1 gallon or so? Anyone have any clever ideas?

[mbryson]

Just looking for a smallish sized air tank I can hide in my Jeep. Bonus points if it will fit under the rear or front seats or something. Who's got what?

I'm on the hunt as well. I will be looking for something to throw on before safari so I will chime back in if I find something. As well as keeping watch on this thread for others' ideas...

I'd probably use 1-3 20oz paintball co2 cylinders or a couple of fire extinguisher cylinders.

Buy some pipe and two weld caps, then weld then together. You can weld a couple bungs for inlets anywhere in the mix

I built this air tank bracket for the back of my truck and never used it. Got the ranks from nps years ago. I think they were going to be fire extinguishers. Anyways I have an extra tank or if anyone wants to buy the whole thing let me know. I can get some measurements also.

Probably at work under a truck

I built some rocksliders to hold air 2x4" ---3/16 thick on my old YJ and didn't lose any inside space.

Dont need big tires to have fun.

Swalldog, I'll snag that extra tank from you. Are you home tomorrow night?

I have a 1? 1.5? gallon Viair tank you can have. You're not hiding it anywhere though, it's a big fat thing.

I'll take it if nobody else wants it!

I have something like that mounted under the tub in the back.

You can use the small portable oxygen tanks..

Those have funny thread in the neck. EVCO has the adapter to convert them to NPT.

Just bought this accidentally. It was in my Amazon checkout when I bought something else We'll see how it works

Oh I wish I had all the space you guys with real frames have...

I ended up getting one of these 2.5L tanks. It is about the size of a football and mounted on my crosmember right in front of the balancer on the engine.

(and apparently air tanks are like electronics the smaller the more expensive...)

For size, next to 2 gallon pancake compressor tank...

at that size, I'd just use a big aluminum water bottle...

Yeah I'm home tonight at 7:30. Anytime after that is just fine.
