ARB Air Compressors: Single or Double Compressor?

[Rockabillyroy]

12v

the wiring is laid out in a diagram. But if you're just doing air (no lockers) and have your own aux switches, it's even easier.

you wire the compressor directly to the battery. The wire that would normally go to the power switch goes to your aux switch.

if you're not running air lockers and not using the included rocker switch, you can toss the entire rats nest of a harness and wire the purple to your aux. You just snip everything but the purple and connect that to your aux..
If you want to keep you harness intact for just in case, you can get a delphi metri pack connector and just use the one pin that lines up to the purple.

here's some photos showing how simple the wiring can be.

I went with a kit from innovativeatproduct kit. It's a great kit, comes with everything you need to mount and use with very clear instructions. Have been running it for about a year and would absolutely recommend it.

I went with the ARB single and used the ACM bracket and installation guide.

But if you really want to get creative John did a really good video

I'm going with the Kraken bracket.

The kraken looks like a copy of the innovative at unit minus the blow-off valve and gauge. It does have pretty brackets though.

Haven't really looked at that. Hmmmm

 

[ttn333]

Never seen that one. Hmmmm

The blow off valve is very useful to relieve pressure when you're done and to equalize all 4 tires. The gauge, well that's useful too for obvious reason.

I have gone with the ARB single.

I used the mount below. Excellent option but only for the RHD model at this point. I would put more inquiries to them (as they are Australian made and good quality, manufactured about eight kilometres from me).

They said they are getting a lot inquiries from the US, so a LHD version isn't out of the question.

This is the one I was looking at once my little smittybuilt kicks the bucket. All 4 at once seems worth the added cost/space of the dual compressor.

I'd only go ARB and I have both dual and singles on diff Jeeps. They both work great.
