Question for ARB Dual compressor Owners

[82SC]

for those that mounted it in the drivers side where the SLEE mount goes....

How much clearance do you think you have between the top and the hood when closed?

 

[grinchy]

very little

 

[empty80]

Almost none. Don’t leave the QD in a vertical position. You can see that dent in the picture below.

The outlet can be clocked to get that fitting at an angle to lower it and provide more clearance.

hmmmm

Anyone have a height of the unit from the bracket up....

Trying to see if I can add an accessory on that bracket that is 6" high

Not much extra room...but its been 100% perfect for 5 years in mine, including extreme heat & long, slow wheeling in Moab Summers. No issues whatsoever.

I run like this. Presses maybe 1/4" into insulation. You just need to be sure everything's cooled down enough before closing hood.

My quick disconnect is straight up. It has left an impression in the liner/padding under the hood (LX), but not the hood itself. No issues.

I have my dual set up how @sleeoffroad said to do it, with the tire port relocated. It’s close, but I put chalk on top on my compressor and bombed down a very rough trail. Never could see a chalk imprint on the hood liner, so it is perfect for my truck at least.

Whenever I put a compressor in a 200, I lead off with, “just get the Slee mount.”

Teflon tape, 1/4" pipe nipples and ninety's and you're in.

 

[sleeoffroad]

This is how we do them.

 

[82SC]

Yeah I'm just waiting for you to get more stock!!! Any ETA?

 

[Cruisin911]

Mine is installed like @Vestal. It impacted the fire/sound blanket on the hood. I simply cut out a 4x4 rectangle. Lots of miles, trails, and washboard. No issues.

FWIW - make sure you install it correctly.......

I am reading you posts as if you are considering using the mount bracket to hold something else other than the compressor. The Compressor is 4.1" tall from mount plate to top exclusive of piping, you can see from other comments that the air line if not canted sticks up and estimated 1" farther and imprints into the hood liner. I don't think you would be able to fit a 6" tall item on the bracket.

Yeah I hope so.
Slee mounts just came back in stock so ordered one.
Im planning on mounting a airlift compressor and wireless manifold for airbags on the unit. And in the future upgrade to the ARB so it can do airbags and tires.
