What about tucked way up where the old evap used to be? Then just run an outlet somewhere more convenient to use to connect the hose when wanting to air up. Does it need to be out of the elements? That might be a deal breaker then.
I don't currently use an arb nor do I have my JL yet. So take it for what it is.
Just working on post count really. Kind of screwed since there is no wine thread here. Lol.
It'd be a bad idea to put it there as water would ruin it. Trust me, I've tried doing something like this on Moby back in the day.
I bet they try to sneak it in right here:
I have the ARB dual compressor under my hood on JK. Didnt want to wait for months for product to come out so I saved my almost $400 just fro the pump and got the smitty built 5.6 CFM one.. Its highewr rated then the ARB dual.
That's the first time I've heard 'smittybuilt' and 'higher rated' in the same sentence, lol, but regardless glad to hear you got it going. Where did you mount it at?

I have seen people mount one under their passenger seat on the JK
It definitely looked tight under the hood. I may be stuck with under the seat(wife won't like that), or maybe convert it to a portable setup with some heavy gauge clips or a heavy gage 12v plug like a portable winch.
I didn't think underneath would be an option, but good to hear sage advice on that idea as I was curious.
Not that I am getting one........
I run an arb twin inside. It's not that bad. My wife is usually in there with 3 kids and we're aired up in less than 10 minutes. Another thread came up about this on wayalife, so I asked her about the compressor noise. She said it wasn't bad at all. Plus, a lot of times while airing up, we're all outside mingling and talking and nobody is inside the Jeep dealing with the noise.
I have the ARB twin portable compressor. It's quick and easy to hook up

Maybe they will make a sway bar disconnect to suit your needs too.
