Default Dual ARB Compressor - mounting?

Is there a thread or has anyone mounted the new dual ARB compressor? I have the single mounted under the hood but am hopeful there will be a new mount solution. Tips?

Default Solution?

Did you find a solution? I am looking at the regular ARB mount. It looks too small for the twin.

Any feedback would be appreciate it.

My jeep is in the garage as we speak while I try and figure out a clever way of mounting the dual....subscribed.

Seeing as how I have no welding or fab skills, it looks like I'm going to mount my dual compressor in the back of the jeep, inside of the rear wheel well. I'm not stoked about running that much power cable but I can't find another spot to fit the bill. Now I have to remove the inner fender liner and make sure it's safe to drill through so close to the fuel spout.

EVO just came out with a new mount for the single compressor. You may want to contact them to see if it can be used for a double or if they have a double coming out in the future.

Doesn't the twin come with the mount bracket? Had my eye on this compressor for awhile now...

It's super bad ass, and airs up tires in no time...it's just that there is nowhere to mount the pig in the engine bay. ARB does not have a mounting bracket available.

I'm almost positive they have one for the twin to be mounted in the engine compartment. Did you look at their website? It shows brackets in the parts description.

I just called ARB USA and they verified they do not have a mounting bracket for Jk's. Seth in sales told me they mount them under seat in the cab
