Great video...I'm interested in this for my 22 F350 but I live in NH and I'm concerned about the winter months we have and this being able to with stand the salt and slush ??
Nice rig! How did you connect the compressor to the upfitter switch from the relay? I have a 2016 F350 diesel. There are 2 , 25 amp and 2, 10 amps. I’m trying to use one of the aux switches to turn the compressor on and off..
Good evening, I know you only produced a limited number of your mounts and have since sold out, just checking to see if you had planned to make another production run? I am sure you have been inundated with requests, it is a very cool system.
Very nice. Do the rear wheels throw any debris onto the compressor or dust shield? I'm picturing riding my bike as a kid and the rear tire shooting water onto my backside of my pants.
👍👍👍 I don’t know why so many people mountain air compressor in a dirty wet environment. I just don’t understand that I’m using. 4 VIAIR air compressors for my airhorns, and for my ability to air up a flat tire for me or somebody else. All of my equipment is not in the weather and it’s not in the water or the mud in the dirt. It takes me only seconds to remove one of the. 4 VIAIR air compressors if they fail for any reason or get worn out I don’t have to crawl underneath my truck to take something out that’s no longer working. I believe you prolong the life of anything if you keep it out of the dirt, the water and the heat from the freeway, if you do not mounted underneath of the truck. Keep in mind I own a 2022 Nissan frontier crew cab I have a 2.5 gallon air tank and I have. 4 VIAIR air compressors and a quarter inch manifold that route the air pressure to where I wanted to go and none of my equipment. All the electrical is in the dirt water or mud. Who wants to crawl underneath of a truck to service there? Air system not me
Most folks with real work trucks need their entire bed for hauling and capacity. Placing tanks and pumps in the bed eats up that precious space. Interior is out of the question due to excessive noise the pumps make. With a Frontier you probably don’t have to worry about these issues and therefore have plenty of room to mount in your passenger seat.
Thank you much for your input. I’ve always wanted an air compressor system for my pick up truck that has rapid recovery capability. The reason I put the system together is because there’s so many people out there on the freeway. They do not pay attention to what they’re doing. Usually they’re playing with the phone while driving down the road not staying in their own lane we all know what happens when your car gets wrecked. The value is diminished dramatically number one and number two it winds up in the shop to get repaired. It’s going to be there for a long period of time so I make sure that I have the ability to give them a loud wake up call to stay where they belong and away from my truck Also, it does not take me long to have 150 psi. I have run it up to 250 psi just to pressurize the system to make sure that it’s got no leaks Sometimes I use it to help others who have a flat tire and when I opened up the toolbox to connect my hose to inflate the tire, they are impressed with what they see The airhorns are in the grill you can’t see them unless you really look for them and I have them facing towards the ground. That way if I drive my truck through a car wash no water is going up inside of the airhorns I added another airline that goes up underneath the back of my truck so if I want, I can add a second set of air horns on the rear of my truck I’m sick of the stupidity on the freeway. That’s why I built the system that I put together .
Hey really nice setup man! I have a question about installing the air chuck at the rear bumper. I get there's the air chuck in front but what screws on to the rear side of it that squishes it tight against the metal there?
Definitely going to consider this setup for my vehicle. Love the way the horn is wired too, would have never thought of that myself! Would it be possible to wire the air pump to the ignition or is the startup and compressor too much of a draw to have simultaneously?
Of course! This is the way the compressor kit is intended to be wired. It comes with a relay and sufficient wiring to wire the constant/load directly to the battery and the relay trigger off an IGN circuit.
So I know your install is on a truck and all hardware is under the truck bed. Can the compressor and tank be mounted within a car’s trunk? Or are there safety concerns ? Thanks .
Hey thank for the watching! The whole unit will hang from the frame inserts without the self-tapping screws in place. I have now made 20 of these and I have tried this repeatedly. All the weight hangs down vertically from the inserts, the screws just keep the inserts from sliding out as that weight can shift from side-to-side in corners/bumps/etc.
I don't see a regulator in your install. I have the same horn running off a 1.5 gallon tank and two Viair 444c compressors. With my air regulated down to 85 psi I can get a lot more usage from my system before the compressors have to kick on and re-energize the tank. The regulator is only on the output that feeds the horn.
I have a 2008 F250 Super Duty. I understand you have these mount kits available. I am looking at the medium duty ViAir system. I would be interested in buying the kit.
Not sure what I'm doing wrong with the wiring. Followed your instructions with wiring the relay without any luck. Regarding the solenoid, 85 or 86 goes to one of the solenoid wires and other solenoid wire is grounded, correct? Thanks!
@@xcntrk75 yes sir. The diagram on my relay is identical to your relay in the video. When I activate upfitter 1, I hear a high pitched sound from the relay and my factory horn still sounds when pushed. Maybe the relay is bad. Two wires from the solenoid, one connected to 87 and is the second solenoid wire grounded? Thanks a lot for your time.
I see people asking if your selling the bracket and am I to understand your selling the whole kit ? If so I'm very interested could you message me please, Thank you
Very clean install! Would you be willing to share or post the drawing template for the tray, mount and dust shield? Looking to put the same system in and yours turned out very clean. Looks like the F350 has the same frame block outs and should work.
Need 3/8" or 1/2" line straight off the tank to a regulator then to the coupler...then a guy could. But not for long on a 2.5 tank. And that's a low volume pump. Use Milton type V couplers for better flow/volume
Two things! First, you honk at little old ladies in the crosswalk when the light changes? Second, a 40 amp fuse on 30 amp device is LESS protection, Einstein.
A man after my own heart. OCD, and everything needs to look as factory as possible. Very nicely done, sir.
can you share some links for the parts you used? would you be interested in making/selling the mounting kit?
Thank you for your outstanding job, highly appreciate it, have a great day.
Very professional setup 👍
Excellent work! Love the setup. Good job
Impressive. Nice job!
Great setup!
Nice setup bro 😎
Great work.
Great video
Clean install!
Couldn’t have done it better myself. One thing I would have tried to do was mount the compressor right side up. Good work
Nice fabrication
👍
I wish I could find a bracket like this for sale or the CAD for it. Great fit and strong way to mount!
I have The Chief on my car . I love it!
Are you still selling the mounts?
Awesome install and video. Very clean.
Very nice fab work. Also interested in your mounts. Please let me know what your charging for them. Thank you!!

on the horn relay - did you just ground the black and one of the two relay wires?
Good evening, I know you only produced a limited number of your mounts and have since sold out, just checking to see if you had planned to make another production run? I am sure you have been inundated with requests, it is a very cool system.
did you run 1/4" air lines? for the chief? where did you mount your gauge?
Great video, very good method of set up, how much did you get the kit
Very nice. Do the rear wheels throw any debris onto the compressor or dust shield? I'm picturing riding my bike as a kid and the rear tire shooting water onto my backside of my pants.
Nice install. The splash guard on the bottom was a nice touch. How has the system held up to snow, moisture and dirt?

How much for the bracket? What is the viair kit part number?
How did your wire the solenoid?
Great video. I’ve sent a pm requesting pricing.
So no pressure gauge installed? You would have to use a manifold
How much for the brackets, I'm interested. Thank you
Hey really nice setup man! I have a question about installing the air chuck at the rear bumper. I get there's the air chuck in front but what screws on to the rear side of it that squishes it tight against the metal there?
There's a fitting that goes into the air-chuck, it has a shoulder and I sandwiched the plate where mounted between the chuck and that shoulder.
How do I contact you to get the mount?
Definitely going to consider this setup for my vehicle. Love the way the horn is wired too, would have never thought of that myself! Would it be possible to wire the air pump to the ignition or is the startup and compressor too much of a draw to have simultaneously?
Of course! This is the way the compressor kit is intended to be wired. It comes with a relay and sufficient wiring to wire the constant/load directly to the battery and the relay trigger off an IGN circuit.
Are you still selling these? If not how about the drawings so I can get it cut?
Would you be willing to share that file? I have the same truck and system.
So I know your install is on a truck and all hardware is under the truck bed. Can the compressor and tank be mounted within a car’s trunk? Or are there safety concerns ? Thanks .
Trunk is better location since no real water issues
2021 F350, interested in this kit
Great video, nice details. The unit really isn't supported by the inserts, it's supported by the two bolts.
Hey thank for the watching! The whole unit will hang from the frame inserts without the self-tapping screws in place. I have now made 20 of these and I have tried this repeatedly. All the weight hangs down vertically from the inserts, the screws just keep the inserts from sliding out as that weight can shift from side-to-side in corners/bumps/etc.
@@xcntrk75 i believe he is referring to the bolts that attached to the 2x4 inserts - you welded the nuts in place.
I don't see a regulator in your install. I have the same horn running off a 1.5 gallon tank and two Viair 444c compressors. With my air regulated down to 85 psi I can get a lot more usage from my system before the compressors have to kick on and re-energize the tank.

Hi there. This product is available but the installation system currently only fits 2017+ Super Duty.
Nice clean install. I wish you were my neighbor when I installed my Godfather air-horn. Putting a manifold together for those 6 trumpets was a pain,.
Not sure what I'm doing wrong with the wiring. Followed your instructions with wiring the relay without any luck. Regarding the solenoid, 85 or 86 goes to one of the solenoid wires and other solenoid wire is grounded, correct? Thanks!
Follow the diagram on the relay housing. Sometimes different vendors switch the pin numbers around.
@@xcntrk75 yes sir. The diagram on my relay is identical to your relay in the video. When I activate upfitter 1, I hear a high pitched sound from the relay and my factory horn still sounds when pushed. Maybe the relay is bad.
Two wires from the solenoid, one connected to 87 and is the second solenoid wire grounded?
Thanks a lot for your time.
Do you have any more of your mounts available?
Unfortunately no
I see people asking if your selling the bracket and am I to understand your selling the whole kit ? If so I'm very interested could you message me please,
Thank you
Very nice install! Can you tell us where you found the rear air chuck cover??
I had it kicking around. You can get them at trailer part stores.
@@xcntrk75 Great, Thanks
Very clean install! Would you be willing to share or post the drawing template for the tray, mount and dust shield? Looking to put the same system in and yours turned out very clean. Looks like the F350 has the same frame block outs and should work.

I’d like to buy a mount
The radio station in the background sounds familiar 😂
Great job, are you interested in selling me the same mounting kit.
You're clearly a fabricator if you have a bender for 1/4" and a dimple die.

Are you still making the mounts?
Still producing, first batch due next week.
@@xcntrk75 great let know when they are ready
@@xcntrk75 I am also interested in the mount for this system. I have a 2021 Ford F450 coming this month and want to install exactly like you have.

I just saw that you are selling these brackets. I would be interested, please let me know how to purchase.
Only made a limited batch, all sold out. Thanks for your interest.
Do you have a blueprint for this that you would be willing to share
Can you run power tools from that set up?
