The UNDERHOOD™ 150 air compressor system is the best choice for customers who have concerns with space and weight on their service or utility truck.
The powerful rotary screw air compressor is ideal for operating large-size air tools like post-pounders or jack hammers. This means that it replaces large utility-mount or portable tow-behind air compressors.
Truck Mounting Kits
Some applications are restricted to specific series and/or models. Please confirm compatible vehicles on VMAC’s Application list.

Commonly used air tools – UNDERHOOD™ 150 air compressors can be used for:
Free up to 80 cubic feet on your truck body
UNDERHOOD™ 150 air compressors free up to 80 cubic feet on the truck deck because the air compressor mounts in the engine compartment. In fact, no components get installed on the truck deck which ensures a clean and professional looking truck, and space for other equipment, tools or materials. Utility mount air compressors are large and take up value space on trucks.
Decrease truck GVW by up to 1,900 lb
UNDERHOOD™ 150 air compressors reduce truck GVW by as much as 1,900 lbs. Utility mount air compressors are heavy and add significantly to truck GVW. Choosing a lightweight UNDERHOOD™ air compressor means you’ll be able to add more tools and equipment to your truck, carry more materials, take advantage of better fuel economy, or even downsize your truck classification.
Avoid frustrating breakdowns and maintenance issues
UNDERHOOD™ 150 air compressors are powerful enough to replace engine-driven utility mount or portable tow-behind air compressors. This means less time and money is spent on fixing engine and chassis issues and more time on jobs making money.
Free up your hitch
UNDERHOOD™ 150 air compressors allow you to free up your truck hitch so it can be used for towing other equipment. By freeing up your hitch for other equipment, you can haul more of materials to the jobsite, make only one trip to the jobsite, or reduce the number of trucks you need on the jobsite.
