ARB compressor location

Post by morkz »

Hey

Where the best place to mount an ARB compressor in GU wagon, at the moment it will just be used to pump up tyres but it will be used for lockers eventually thats why i bought the compressor just for lockers.

Also some people say they over heat in the engine bay and clog up with crap.


1. engine bay
2. inside the cabin (where though)

well let me know whats best.

cheers

Under the drivers/passengers seat. Away from all sorts of crap, and works to run the air hose to both sides of the car.

jacks useless once you've lifted the truck

get a hi lift and secure it somewhere eg roofrack or spare wheel carrier

I have seen ARB fit them in many places, most common though on GU is in the engine bay corner near passenger side door, or under passenger seat.

In my old car i had it mounted in the engine bay, however it would get covered in mud and dust, so when i got the new car (GQ) i put it under the passeneger front seat, this way it stays nice and clean
