The Air Lift QuickShot Compressor System for Air Springs - Support Line and Reserve Tank # AL25690 can absolutely be mounted in the bed of your truck if desired. The cover over your bed whether a tonneau cover or a camper shell will keep the elements out of the system so that installation will work very well. The only parameters for installation are in the attached installation details that your mounting location will not have any issue with.
