Default Help routing ARB air lines?

Hey guys,

I am getting ARBs installed front/rear in the next month.

I plan on installing my compressor in the back of my jeep on top of the rear wheel well.

I am having a hard time planning my air line route, and how I should get inside the body for the rear locker.

Any tips would be appreciated.

Hi

I have mine on the drivers side rear wheel arch.

The is an access where the rear window wash/wiper stuff comes through the carpet.

If you lie on your back and look up into the tub, behind the rear lights, there is a black foam rubber insert. Pull it out to see in there. It's not attached, just squished in there.

Regards
Paul

There is a grommet on the driver side ontop of rear quarter panel behind roll bar that leads to the space behind the drivers tail light. route the hose out the bottom of the rear quarter panel, no need to drill anything if you don't want. You could also go through the rear drain plug.

My air lines (for a whole air springs system) went through the console between the front seats down through the floor. There's an opening, no need to drill the floor.

I had heat & abrasion protective sleeves over the air lines. This is especially important where the line is exposed to engine bay heat or the exhaust.
