ARB onboard air mounting
Hello everyone,
Wanting to mount the ARB onboard air unit that has double compressors for lockers, tools, and to air up and down etc.
My issue, I have a 1998 xj that came with ABS. I no longer have ABS since I replaced the rear end with a cherokee dana44. But the unit is still intact in my engine bay, where normally I would mount the ARB compressor. So enough babble... lets get right to the point..
Anyone running the ARB onboard air unit? if so where did you mount it?
I am not really a fan of mounting under the back seat or anywhere in the cab for that matter.. As I have seen them blow back gear oil and make a mess when not maintained properly.
M.O.R.E makes a mount for TJ's that mounts it over the intake manifold. I wonder if that would fit in the XJ? I will call them tomorrow and ask.
In the meantime, if anyone has succesfully mounted the new larger ARB on board air unit in their XJ I would love to hear about it. Especially if you fit it inside the engine bay, and have the ABS unit getting in the way of everything...
Thanks for taking the time to read this non the less... any help or ideas I receive will be much appreciated!
Attached is screenshot taken from the MORE site showing the TJ intake mani mount for this unit.

Still waiting to get in touch with M.O.R.E to see if their TJ 4.0 bracket will work..

Beginning to lean towards the cowl intake idea. That would clear up more than enough room for it.
