Air tank locations?

[jurfie]

JESUS they are proud of that one. It is a 600 dollar viair kit but where is the grand of markup. Just the skid plate?

Let's see...

Included in the kit:

• twin Viair 444c compressors and 2.5 gallon air tank ($667.61 on Amazon)
• JLU On Board Air Skid ($474.99 on their website)
• JL Fuel Door Air Fitting Kit ($99.99 on their website)
• Remote Inlet/Air Filter Bracket ($20.21 on Amazon)

Total package price = $1,262.80...I guess the remaining $537.19 (less the profit margin) goes to LiteBrite?

Lol. I knew I'd seen another one which was more reasonable.

FWIW UpDownAir now has a Gladiator-specific four tire inflation system. https://updownair.com/product/4-tire-inflation-system-jeep-gladiator-jt-engine-bay-passenger-side/

Thanks for posting this - I hadn't seen it before. Looks really interesting!

my current setup. I snipped the pic from a video as I forgot to take a pic myself of the air compressor mounted. I used a bolt already in the engine bay to mount the air connection. No air tank yet. I bought the ARB mount from Eddie, it works great.

What did you do TO your Gladiator today?

Installed the new UpDown Air JT system with the twin ARB under-seat option just the other day. Completely bolt-on with the supplied brackets. Makes quick work of airing down and back up, and automatically balances the pressure among the tires when you leave them connected for a few minutes. Not sure I'd have much use for a tank unless it was big enough to supply a suitable air tool throughout a tire change, but I am considering it.

The 10 lb. CO2 tank and regulator I bought and put together cost about $160 and will not only inflate plenty of tires/trips but will also run air tools - no problem.

I wonder how this bracket works in comparison. I don't seem to find much on it though.

Bringing this back to life as I have the same question. I have the engine bay ARB air compressor mount and I'm thinking of where to mount a 1 gallon tank. I pick up my JT in 2 weeks, but until then, any ideas?

I put my 1 gallon tank under the brake booster.

I really like this idea. What mount and tank did you use? I can’t find either on the web.

The bracket that's welded to the bottom of the tank can be mounted to some studs underneath the brake booster.

Thank you so much.

ARB has a bracket for that...
