The 480C Compressors are suited for exterior mounting. They are moisture and dust resistant and can be mounted under your truck....

So you are golden....

In my experience I haven't had any problems, I just make sure to check the filter(s) every now and then....

thanks guys, it cleared up and it was awesome driving the truck finally. Still got some little shit to fix up. I have a rug covering the half finished floor pan. lol Also need shocks and I do believe I cut through my speedo cable because the miles aren't turning over and the speed isn't working. How hard is that to install??

Ya, being exposed is fine, what I did was clear caulked the area where the wires come out just to keep any debris/dirt from coming in.

Never changed a Speedo but shouldn't be to hard especially with your bed off .
