Hi Leroy, sent you a PM a couple of day ago, but haven't heard back. I know you get busy so I am posting to the forum in case someone else knows the answers. Cheers!

I want to get one of your mounts, but I want to buy one that allows me to make future mods. Eventually I will relocate the air pump using the Shrockworks kit when I go to dual battery and then relocate the washer reservoir if I get a front bumper. But first I want to see if your mount will accommodate one of those cheapo Masterflow MF1050 compressors (rebranded under many other names). Eventually I will upgrade to one of those dual ARB air compressors.
I have a few questions for you?
1) What is the vertical clearance between your mount that accommodates both the Shrockworks air pump/washer reservoir relocation kits and the 5th gen 4Runner hood when closed?
2) Is there any difference in clearance between the above mount and one of the mounts that works with only the air pump relocated (i.e. washer reservoir left in stock location) or are they same?
Thanks\
Yep, saw your message... I was busy packing and sending my youngest son off to serve in FEMA Corps for a year.. He flew off this morning...
I'LL COPY MY REPLY HERE BELOW:
Interesting amount of options your looking for, but unfortunately although not impossible, it could be a lot of work....
I do make an option for the ARB to go on top of the... (#4) Shrockworks smog pump kit...
or on top of the...
(#5) Shrockworks smog pump/water reservoir...
I could possible make an adapter at an additional cost (+$25) to go on top of (#5) so that you could use that generic pump laying on its side, however the one you listed has a side air line which would conflict vertically with the hood if mounted on top of one made for the Shrockworks kits.. or even flipped, the line would face downward and be inaccessible... plus i don't have a actual width of the pump to know if it would even fit (no data on web site of real width, it only lists 7.87" which includes the air line/chuck)...
I'm actually doing a similar setup this weekend for someone, although using a Viair 400p. The customer sent me their Viair pump to fab to exactly as there are not enough online specs to build from digitally, and it has a end located air line....
So your questions...
My #4 and #5 compressor mounting plate are positioned vertically within less then a 1/4" off the top of the smog pump, i.e the position of my compressor mounting plate.
This is the same vertical position for either #4 or #5 mounts, however due to height limitations with the hood, #5 is actually offset towards the engine as to clear the shrockworks water reservoir.
Basically, with #4 and #5, and similar to the other versions, the height is limited, even with the ARB the air port on the compressor needs to be rotated to the side 45* and use a 90* fiting to run the air line out to an air chuck location (absolute wits end sells nifty mounting points BTW)...
Now, you were asking for a standalone of version #5 that would install without the shrockworks mount in place, so that can be done, although at an additional cost (+$25) for an adapter to do so...
I mean for a temporary cheap option, as I use my ARM twin/single pumps for fab'g only, so I use the Viair 88p portable in a canvas bag (amazon - Bucket Boss 69000 Cable Bag)... actually, Viair has a full rage of compressor with varying size/air CFM outputs to select from....
I have a outdated version arb mounting plate ($75) which positioned way lower vertically than all my current models, I could pull it from its packaging and see if it would need the dimensions of masteflow height and let ya know...
Let me know....
