Default York OnBoard Air w/3.6

Has anyone used a York Compressor w/their 3.6 yet? Been searching around and haven't found any posts on how to do it cheaply.

Only thing I've found is the Offroad Only kit which is quite expensive $500 +
York compressor bracket kit for Jeep Wrangler JK 2012-13, ORO Direct

While the electric pumps don't put out as much air they seem more attractive when looking at the price above...

The link provided is just a bracket kit! At $500 that would be a bargain compared to what a good electric compressor tank set up would run. Or even compare that to a nice power tank set up. The York compressor Kit is close to $1900.

Viair makes a really nice kit for a JK 2 gallon tank 1020 pressors mounts under the hood between the radiator in the engine. That's just under $600

True, I knew that ORO had the $1,800 kit but I was looking at the ORO bracket and seeing if there is another option out there (besides the cost, I thought the design of the 3.6 ORO kit is kinda dicey / potentially warranty voiding since it runs off the harmonic balancer).

But I've seen the ARB and Viair compressors where it's just the compressor, no tank and they're relatively inexpensive ($200-$400 total). I believe Viair makes a decent 100% duty cycle compressor, not sure about the ARB's duty cycle but I basically wanted to see if anyone else is running a 2012/2013 with a York and see if they've set it up differently than the ORO kits.
