Some people convert the a/c compressor to run air tools and you don't lose any space.

You can go one step more too if you looking to have a tank too...You could make a custom front/rear bumper out of square tubing and pressure weld that with fittings. I would just be careful of hitting the bumper against another solid object tho haha And that A/C compressor mod can be done for less than 40$ fyi.

I like my AC and so I put an electric pump under the rear seat and then worked a tank system in next to it.

Move your battery to the passenger side and install a York Compresor.

Or google Oasis.
