That's what I did. The connector in the back can be used for the compressor or inverter, when needed.

or you could even add a flush mount surface outlets if you wanted to get fancy/ even with your air hose connectors using connectors of this sort mounted in a weather proof outlet box or housing.

re photo : are those # 6 copper looks heavy duty?

ronjenx

They are #4 copper stranded cables.

jeepmojo

where did you get your connectors ? If you can recall . im sure they are available
in most automotive parts store but for # 4 cu might be harder to find them

I have seen them at various auto parts stores, and on line.

first impression is pretty high quality kit . I know its not the ultimate compressor out , however it looks really nice and most likely it work well for the amount of use ill give it. And the price was perfect for what i was willing to spend . Ill do like ronjenx did and eliminate having to open the hood every time you need to use it.
it seems logical and a good idea. The hose is very pliable and long instead of the coil type. that seem to fail pretty quickly in cold temps
prob will attach a jerry can tray to the passenger side of the rear of my 2 door over the wheel well seeing i dont carry a rear seat, so it wont bounce around . Or bolt with a wingnut on inside of can to the tub rail.

I am planning to add a compressor to my daughters jeep and I was thinking the Harbor Freight one mounted upside down inside of the tire carrier. She already has the MORryde hinge and support set up on hers and it looks like a good spot semi out of the elements. Here is the carrier we will be adding this year as she is going to 37's.

The pump should fit perfect inside of it. I already have a 2G wire running to the rear seat as there is an amp for the stereo. It has a distribution block so I could easily run a 4G wire to the gate to power the compressor. At $49 even if it was replaced every couple of years it would be no big loss.

I have the carrier and the room is tight in there. If you've got measurements on the pump then I'll check to see if it fits. I'm hanging a 37" on the back now.

I don't, But I have to drive right past Harbor Freight tomorrow so I will stop and get some. From the looks of the mount it should stay relatively dry.
