Who's installed an on board air system? Where did you put the compressor?

Viair portable. Take it in whatever rig you want, or take it over to another rig in the group to help a buddy out

I have used a Smity Built for several years. Good investment. Just tales up room in the back (2 dr). On board will be more convenient. Get a long enough hose to help others.

I just received the ARB twin and KR bracket mentioned in the post. Plan to install tomorrow. Will just use in engine bay until I get motivated to run hose to rear hitch.
Also picked up the Morrflate 4 wheel system, super happy with that setup.

certainly see the advantage of portable one, I just wanted something out of sight and there when ya need it. One less item to remember to bring!

My guess is ya would have to give up A/C and turn that into the Air compressor...not much room under the hood...

Got dual Vlair compressors above and a little in front of the rear axle, use the Aux 1 to turn it on and it is plumbed under the little door in cargo area to get to tools to change spare tire.

Yes! Check out this post.
Love the ARB and Morrflate! All the Jeep’s in Moab last week were jealous!

In past trucks I've always installed Viair compressors in the bed, but in the Bronco I went with the dual ARB under the hood. 20220422_150257.jpg20220422_150250.jpg
