I'll be making my sliders air tanks with outlets in each corner

I've heard that's illegal... do you know if that's true?

Can't see how it's any different to an air tank??

compressed air is a no no in case of collision. Better off buying a tested tank and bolting it to the chassis rail.
Had that idea years ago and was warned off it , ended up making the side steps into water tank instead even with
76 x 50 RHS by 1.8 mt long,,,not much water,

how are you going to test them , and what happens if it goes pear shaped

Compressed air test.
But it's my bus so I'll take that risk.
They won't be pressurized most the time anyway, only when needed.
Same as you don't run the air compressor all the time..

Do you have any pressure tickets? Not questioning your welding, just saying that if you do I see absolutely no reason why it could be called illegal.
