Thank you bandi for the 5th gen ARB compressor mount

I have the Slee mount as well. I chose that one because it dose not block my options for a second battery, if I decide to do that.

I just want to inflate my 265 KO2s to 37psi after offroading at ~15PSI.

Will a single ARB work or should I just get a double? Also, is there any reason to run a switch to the cab for these? If I'm using the compressor I'll be under the hood anyway...but I'm not sure how I'd wire up a switch on the compressor itself anyway.

It will take a lot longer.... as for the switch, it comes with everything you need.... I swapped the ARB switch for a AOB push button...

OP - I also have a twin with the bandi mount....

The single will work just fine. It's more powerful than my portable Masterflow and I can air up to 34 psi in about 2 minutes a tire. In terms of the wiring it is not that difficult (and that is coming from a non-mechanically inclined person). You would wire in a similar way to my light bar install described in this link.

Also if you look at the post I made above @MTN4RNR goes through the wiring including how to use an add-a-fuse in his install. If you go this route, it sounds like we are in the same area, pm me and maybe we can meet up and I'll help the best I can with the install.

How hard was it going from the ARB switch to the AOB switch. I want to do AOB switches.. Thanks..

Also thanks to everyone for the replies. I'm going to order the Slee tomorrow..

My dual ARB is currently mounted in the passenger side firewall "hole" that the Bandi mount uses. I fabricated my own as I was in a rush but I would have bought the Bandi otherwise.

I bought the Slee compressor bracket though as I'm currently using it for my onboard charger and it makes a great shelf in the driver side firewall hole. However, I will most likely be relocating the compressor to it. Between wanting to eventually wire up dual batteries, and also have the option to relocate the washer reservoir should I decide to install a full bumper, the passenger side pockets are already overbooked. This is exactly why I got the Slee bracket for the onboard charger though: options and future-proofing. Now I just have to figure out where the charger will get displaced to...

I'm rocking the Bandiworld mount, my second actually, as I asked Leroy to custom fab me one with the ability to securly mount my manifold kit, which is used for my front air locker.

Awesome mounts, but kind of a bear to wrestle into place and bolt down. I was going to run an air tank before 1. I realized how hard it was installing without a tank. And 2. Even ARB told me the tank wasn't worth it unless I was running air tools...which I don't plan on ever doing.

An air tank will save you like 5-10 seconds before you can start filling up a tire...not worth the effort.

Liquidmantis · 01-15-2017, 03:36 PM

Yeah, a tiny 1 gal or even 2 gal tank will give you a quick burst but filling tires (and even sustained tool usage) is all about CFM.

My dual is in my rear quarter panel.

Super easy..... basically cutting off the female connectors and attaching them to the AOB switch harness. I've had the switch always hot as well as ignition controlled. Can choose which one you prefer.

I was thinking about getting the SLEE mount for my ARB compressor. Based on their install instructions it looks like it uses two of the mounting points that the @RagoFabrication relay holder uses. Does anyone know if these two play nice together or if I have to choose one or the other?

Concon40 · 06-04-2017, 12:31 PM

has anyone mounted the single in the rear cargo area? Seems like it would be nicer to hang out under the rear hatch if the weather was bad. I'd love to see some photos of rear mounts
