Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Okay, That is just one sweet setup. I know I will never have that slick a system but man that makes me drool.

No heat issues. I didn't use up any storage space since this is unused empty space behind the talilight. It is a very tight space. I had to remove the top mounting base plate of the compressor in order to squeeze the compressor into the hole behind the taillight. Once it was inside the space I reinstalled the top mount. I eyeballed where I wanted to mount it. Then I removed the top mount again pulled it back out and made a template to mark my holes. I used an angle drill for the holes. It was very tight! I had a friend help with tightening two of the screws because one person has to hold the screwdriver from the access hole below while the other wrenches through the taillight hole.
Patience is required, but well worth the effort.

I am looking at getting the warn power plant, but I am worried it is going to stick up too much in front of my grill. Thoughts? I have the Shrockworks mid bumper.

Came with a quick connect 30' air hose w/gauge. Airs up 35's from 8 to 30 psi rather quickly, and all for $50.
That's the same one I'm using. They do work very good for the price!

I am using co2 for my air for now. I work at a beverage distrubution warehouse so I have easy access to tanks and co2! Works pretty good but I would still like to have a compressor and tank someday!

Hey guys,

Just trying to decide on a few things. I have stock rubi. tires (about 32") and I'm debating on going with MV50 portable air vs. onboard ARB under hood system. I'm leaning towards ARB system and mounting the switch under the hood as well.

Anyone have experience with ARB....Is it worth doing, are there any issues.

What do you guys think?
