Recently bought a manifold for my ARB air compressor. The Main goal of having this manifold is to allow an in-cab air pressure gauge to connect to the air compressor. The thing is, it came with (6) 1/4 NPT ports all on one side and 3/8 NPT on each end. I do not yet have lockers, and at this point, all I want to do is be able to connect my in-cab air pressure gauge.

Are there solid fitting that I can safety install to fill the holes in the manifold that I'm not using?

If there aren't any solid fittings, are there any fittings that can be suggested that will still do the job of filling the hole and close the manifold so air doesn't escape?

 

Yes, there are plugs you can get to plug the unused holes. Some hardware stores will carry them. Most plumbing houses will have them. Ask for exactly what you mentioned in your post, 1/4" NPT and 3/8" NPT plugs.

 

Thanks, found the plugs.

Does anyone have a picture of their ARB compressor connected to a manifold? I'd also
Like to know how to connect/mount everything. Thanks for the help!

 

i dont have an arb, im running a dule Viair set up w/ a manifold. ill grab some pics tomorrow when its light out.

 

That would be awesome! But go enjoy your Easter! I can wait :-)

 

Which ARB do you have? I'll be installing dual this weekend with the same manifold.

I also have a few extra 1/4 plugs I can ship you if you want. Let me know. Could probably get them out tomorrow morning.

 

I have the high output ARB one. I have all the plugs now, just need to know how I'm
Hooking it up to the compressor. Thanks for the thought though! :-)

This Jeep is slowly teaching me more and more about mechanics lol

 

Check out www.jeepswag.com

They have all the fittings you need and shipping is really quick. I ordered quite a bit of my line and fittings from them.

 

Jeepswag's component pictures are all "broken" for me
