ThorsLightning uses a molle cage to mount their NAPA/MaxiTrac-based 2 cylinder compressor. I have their package, and am very happy with it. They also have an adapter plate so their "Refuge" molle cage will accommodate the ARB 2-cylinder.
The "Refuge" cage for the 4-Door (they have a somewhat different one for the 2-door), $230:

The adapter plate so the "Refuge" cage can accommodate the ARB 2-cylinder, $20:

Nice-looking solution, Copperhead73, but this is another one that might be a bit simpler and more affordable for some people.

looks like the bracket will chatter on the c pillar, no?

The hole on the top right connects a bolt to the C-pillar. I'm not having rattles, buy a rubber washer might be worth adding.

I run a similar mount but built a bracket off the back of the roll bar and have an access door to store the hoses from my moreflate

Neat window install. Maybe I'll put my compressor on one side, and my coffee-serve setup on the other!

How well is that bracket secured to the roll bar. I would hate to have that compressor flying towards the back of my head if I ended up in a collision. I really like that location and would like to do the same thing

there is absolutely no way it's coming off. none.

If we are thinking of the same company, I think its American Adventure Lab: https://americanadventurelab.com/product/ford-bronco-tailgate-compressor-mount-bundle/

Pretty neat setup

I’ve been eyeing this setup as well. Anyone installed one yet??

Yep! Pretty solid so far. Waiting on AAL's wiring harness to arrive so I can power it up.
