i have my arb compressor in between the air filter box and the brake master cyclinder, seemed a good spot at the time and fitted. bolted the mounting braket to the inner guard

Have you thought of putting an air tank in so that you commpressor does'nt work as hard?
I wouldnt put my commpressor anywhere that it would suck dust or mud that stuffs abrasive.
If you have thought of using a air tank get a fire extinguiser the water and DCP type are rated to about 140psi its written on it and the CO2 type about 300psi the added bonus is that all the connection you need are already built on them and you can fill them up at you servo before you go wheeling. That way if your commpressor F's up your lockers still work

bolted in the compresser today should have wired id up but got caught near the fridge and that was that. was a bit of fiddling but not to bad. think i will work on the tank next as i think it could be a good idea and save a bit of time..
