I own a Durango and posted an idea of placing the controls in the overhead console area for what I think is where a garage door opener would go. Not sure if your trucks are the same as the durango nor on the siza of ranchos controls and if they would fit. But I think this might take away from the cool/pimp factor of being able to adjust the shocks on the fly and having the controls in the cab an visible for all to see. Tha seemed to be the big downside for me.

Jaggy,
Do a search for in cab Rancho, etc... You'll find the info I posted from my experience. It was on my Jeep, but might give you some insight.

Thanks for the posts guys.
I tackled this project on Sunday...
2000blackd I looked at puting it in the overhead console, I currently have a radar detecter installed there. the controller is a little big and the amount of wires and air tubes would have been a mess to run through the head liner.
I have a manual trans and opted to put the controller at the lowest point on the dash behind the stick shift. I looks good and can be reached while driving. I put the air compressor infront of the airbox. It works very well and looks clean.
I spent a little extra time thinking of all the places i could conceal the compressor and the controller, that is why i was curriouse where others had installed.
If anyone wants to see pics let me know and I can email...no web page yet.

Jaggy,
I have been looking at doing the 9000X/controller install on my '99 Durango. Could you send me some pics to see where you put the controller and compressor, just curious to see how they look...
