I gotta say thanks for this thread, especially ge2's pics. I've been banging my head trying to figure out the stupid wiring for the HO compressor (why is this there, what is that for, where does the locker connect to the tank....). ARB packed the wiring diagram for the non HO compressor (which doesn't show much anyways) and their website has absolutly no info. I finally found a wiring diagram for the HO thanks to google. But those pics finally made it make sense.

This should not be difficult. ARB if you are reading this, INCLUDING INSTRUCTIONS for at least a bare bones install. I've built multi million dollar computer systems but can't figure out how to hook up a stupid pump!

Grumble.

We now stock a bracket to mount the compressor under the hood.

It runs $85.

Reddavid - If you are still having trouble give me a call I can walk you through the install or get you the correct install instructions.

Is that the one that mounts right next to the brake master? I was thinking about going with that one but would rather get it from you.

Does anyone have a pic of the "2 Track Minds" one installed? Or the one Northridge Dave is talking about? Are these the same? All I could see on their store/site is pics of the bracket itself.

Your kidding right? Take a phillips screwdriver and remove the right hand tail (brake) light.

More pics attached. Hope these help

My ARB HO compressor is mounted under the drivers seat. It stays clean and is easy to reach the quick disconect to air up. The switches worked out great in the daystar lower panel.
