This guy did:

Air lift wireless one in floor storage

Mounted my compressor and manifold in the floor storage compartment. I used a piece of peg board to mount everything to then slide in the bin. Wanted to keep the compressor out of the NY salt and element's. I'll mount in truck this weekend and hook up to the timber Grove air bags that should be...

Thanks, but he actually mounted the compressor. I was wondering if anyone put a tank in.

Dang you're right, my bad. I misread your post.

I imagine it would be the same process as installing a compressor. Find a tank that fits in the bin, run your hoses into it from the underside of the truck.

Finding a tank that will fit seems to be the difficult part.

I am going to be adding an Extra Sanden AC Compressor to my Ecodiesel to
make On-Board Air for my Nathan Airchime K5LA Train Horns and Tool Ports.
The air tanks on my 2008 Big Horn were from Airlift and mounted to the Frame Rails.
I will be looking for a place for the Air Tank, but may end up mounting it in the Bed
on top of the 72 Gal Aux Fuel Tank if I can't find a place under the Truck. The RAM
Bins would be too small for the Horns as they need 120cf/Min.

Would probably have to get something custom made if you want to put it in the underfloor Ram bins. They aren't that big and are an odd shape.

Found a few videos. One in Rambox

One on the bins

This company builds the mount.

I had a Viair 380c Compressor it took 23 minutes to fill my 9 Gallon tank from 0 to 200 PSI.
I switched to a York 210 AC Compressor on my Hemi Engine and it would do the Same thing in
3 minutes at idle. I had to put a cold air kit on and remove the Air Box. The Brackets I designed
and had laser cut. There is also a Hybrid Serpentine and V belt pulley on the Alternator.
