    Well got the horn tank and 2 compressors mounted to a metal plate that has a hole in the center. I can lift or lower my entire set up with it. There is some other security in place to keep it from being lowered and someone walking off with it. Here are some pix.

    Plate by it's self.

    All parts that will be mounted on plate.

    Horn and compressors mounted.

    Wiring ground and compressor power to pressure switch.

    Everything mounted.

    It is flipped over and ready to go under the truck.

    And .... Under the truck!

    Pop off valve and quick connect. When in position it is located right beside the end of the leaf spring pointed toward the side of the truck.

    Let me know what y'all think.
