Looks to be non-branded but the same as ARB

Yeah ARB rip-off. They are even trying to list the ARB part # to confuse customers. I would stay far away from this if I were you.

'Glossy Auto Parts'
sounds legit

These knock-offs have been around for a while on amazon and ebay. It is surprising that ARB can't stop it. They are expensive for a knock-off, so it seems like a risky purchase.

ARB is aware of it. i'm not sure what they are doing to stop it, but these companies pop-up all the time with new names so it's tricky. It's also expensive to fight a company that disappears in court since they operate under fictitious names half the time and are not even based in the states a lot of the time.

Doesnt make sense then... would much rather pay the extra money just for the piece of mind and the warranty...

Do you know if ARB has the compressors made in China? Or has the parts made there and shipped elsewhere? Shipping tooling there is a dangerous game.
