Driving with the lockers on and that things whining would get old real quick. I have had this style hose and fittings on my 2003 TJ since 2005 without a single issue.ĭue to its size and capability it seems to whine quite a lot though. I used rubber Goodyear push lock hose and fittings. I ran the hose directly from the compressor to the quick connect that I mounted under my trailer hitch. We have been working on several 2 year old JK's where the exhaust bolts and shock studs are breaking off. I did not want to put it under the truck my thought was that this would be best solution for my needs.

With the road treatments they have been using here in MD. I am mostly using the compressor to fill the trucks rear tires from my comfortable unloaded PSI of 65psi to 80 psi for towing and for inflating flat tires on vehicles that I tow and with my air bags so I am not really planning to air up 4 large tires at the same time however I would not hesitate to do this.

I have not done any further temp testing. I found the heads to be the hottest surface. After inflating a single 37' tire with my truck setup and a JK with the under hood setup the head and ambient air temps were within a few degrees between setups.

at ARB before mounting it there and they said as long as the fan can draw air it would be fine to mount it there. The storage cubbies seem like the 'best' place to put it, other than the heat issue. How did you run your hose? My stainless line coming off of the compressor, running to the quick connection on my JK gets really hot ( actually had a wheeling buddy pop his rubber lead hose on his). My trepidation about putting line there is the heat coming off the unit, especially the lead line.
