ARB Dual Compressor Install Complete

[Mikerkelly]

This weekend (with the help of a couple of buddies) the ARB twin compressor got mounted and wired in my Bronco.

I used the JCR engine bay mount, wired it to Aux switch 6, and ran a hose to a remote hose coupler into a hole we drilled in the capable bumper.

Now when I need to air up I just plug a hose into the connector on my front bumper and flip the Aux switch. No need to pop the hood. (I stole the idea from the Justin B McBride).

I have the same setup but my remote hook up isn't as flush as yours, it's sitting on the nut, how did you mount yours flush? Here is mine mounted to the rear bumper.

I don't have any pictures, but I used the quick connect from this kit.

If you notice this one has a wider black nut that comes in more flush with the rubber housing. I have a 2nd one that I think came with the compressor and it looks more like the one you have which I think is meant more for connecting straight to the compressor.

Do you remember what length steel braided hose you used? I'm probably going to do this as well.

I used a 1m hose but there isn't much slack. I can move it enough to get the air filter cover off so it was good enough for me.

Will cause major issues with no slack. Sell that

I installed the 1.5m hose. All good.

Very cool set up. I just got my kit yesterday from Ford and planning on doing this project this weekend. Great idea with the bumper mod!
