- Here is a description of my research on the ARB Pump and Locker install. This is the ARB CKMA pump. The larger pump allows for tire fill and Locker operation.

I've been running this location now for 9 months now with no issues. Excellent idea!
I mounted my ARB in the same location. It's been working great for a couple years now. Thanks for sharing
Did the same setup, thanks for the tip! I ordered my JL with the aux switch package, the hot legs of which come bundled beside the battery from the factory. Couldn't be easier, love it.
Great economical idea. 813 Fabrication sells a mounting plate that locates the compressor in just about the same spot. I think it’s about $125 and comes with heat shielding material. The creativity of Jeep people is amazing.
I’ve been struggling to find a spot. Thanks for this. I live in an area where they salt roads in the winter so have been skeptic of fender week. I don’t want inside because of noise. I like this idea.
Glad I could help!
“There’s a lot of space between the radiator and the engine. It will keep you compressor cool.” … and you engine hot! You last mounting location is great, and really makes sense.
Not sure how I missed this. Im doing this immediately. Thx
That's a perfect location. Very nice. I agree that engine looks better without the plastic shroud over the intake. I like to SEE the motor.
The Grimm off-road bracket comes with a heat sheild for there bracket that mounts in the drivers side wheel well.
There are definitely good products out since I posted this... but mine is still free and very functional.
Thank you for your videos!
I put mine in this location on my 2022 JLU with the 3.6L E-Torgue. Very tight fit between the mount and the hood but still the best place I could come up with for the install as I do not want it in the cabin. On my engine, there is a hard metal tube that prevents the manifold from being lowered as shown in the video, but the manifold can be shifted far enough to the right to allow the hood to shut. You may end up with a slight indentation in the hood insulation though. Also, you'll have to run the air chuck and the solenoids parallel to the ground though rather than pointing up towards the hood.
Saw this video, jumped off the couch, and did it, BOOM. Brilliant!
Thanks Mathew.
I have been searching for a good spot to mount my air compressor on a 1999 jeep Cherokee. I recently upgraded to an alternator from a 4.7 v8 and it has an extra leg on the back, in a similar location as where you put your compressor... I think that might be a good spot as well! Thanks for the idea!
Perfect mount man....I how ever kept engine cover and just cut that corner of engine cover... thanks 🙏
I do like how my engine cover looks was thinking the same think about to cut it them i saw your comment 🤣🤣
@3:48 a trigger six shooter JL bracket for their control box can be set there upside down and it fits perfectly.
@tewltalk I’m getting ready to do this. How has it held up since you initially did this? Seems like a great idea I’m just interested in your long term thoughts.
I have read that some are getting interference on the insulation. You may have mounted it with a spacer or the wrong hardware. There is no interference on the filter if you install it directly to the engine cover bracket.
I saw the bracket Our Bills999 mentioned and thought it was the perfect twin compressor mounting solution for my 2022 JLU. Sadly, while the 813 Fab bracket works with a strait 3.6L, it does not work if you have the 3.6L E-Torque. After much research and investigation, I'm going to go with ARB's single compressor and mount it in the location you suggested. Two and a half years after the original posting and your video is still helpful! Thanks!
This is awesome, I’m just going to buy all the parts for the re gear and lockers and drive to your house.
I am waiting for Covid to lift so I can access my local shop. I will have many more videos of the underside of the Jeep Gladiator in the near future. Looking to do side work as well to make some money for more parts. The best axle guy I had years ago worked out of his home garage.
@@c130aviator love your videos, can’t wait to see the diff install.
Epic idea! 1 year in - how’s it going? Still love the idea? Any gotchas to look out for?
I really wanted the duel pump but I don’t think it’s going to fit in the sweet spot under hood. Thanks for the video.
I really do like this location. How is the compressor holding up and how long does it take to pump up your 39’s? Oh and can it pump them up in one duty cycle? I am being told I need the twin compressor for the larger tires.
Hello, is there an install video to this? Although it kinda looks straight forward to install as i give myself a visual installation in my head i would also like to see the install process.
I have a 2013 SVT Raptor running 35s the only thing worries me to install the dual compressor in the engine bay were I have many good locations and accessibility is the heat produced by the engine taking into consideration I live in a hot dusty climate/area. I would appreciate if any of you can share with me if the dual compressor would experience any fatigue or damage caused by the engine heat?
One location I feel perfect for my application is the truck’s bed right hand side secured by an aluminum plate to the bed’s side noting that I have a fiberglass bed cover by leer which isolates the bed from the environment but I need to add at least 10 feet of cable to connect the compressor to the battery the power switch will be installed next to the compressor in the bed on the same foundation plate.
Please advise me what I should do?
Thanks
Are you mounting this over the 3.6L V6 eTorque Engine? I know the layout in that area is slightly different with the eTorque versus the standard V6. Curious if you also wired the switch to one of the auxiliary switches (I have Aux 1 and Aux 2 currently free in the cab) or if you mounted the switch that comes with the compressor somewhere else.
Really good info. Now, this optimum location is just relevant for the 3.6 liter engine because I think the 2.0 liter engine layout (and engine cover) is a little different, no?
Correct
Great idea, thanks!
Thanks, Ill assume the dislikes are guys who mounted it in the easy bake oven under the brake booster.
@@c130aviator yea, when I saw people mounting it there I scratched my head.
@@c130aviator hahaha
TewlTalk 😂 I’ve been doing videos for about a year now and I too wonder about the dislikes I get… how am I supposed to make better content if I don’t know the reason for the 👎🏼. Fortunately they are not many, but the amount of effort it takes to push the thumb down than to not push it thumb at all makes me laugh. I would honestly rather a tasty comment than a thumb down… Anyway… To my question… I see you have a single ARB pump, would you reckon the dual system work in this location? I’ve been on the fence about where to locate mine as well… I’m considering the 813 designs I keep coming across that attaches to the bed ACC. rail, which is a pretty smart design. I may do like brad I’d trail recon and locate it in a leitner box when I do my rack. Keep up the great work. I know the amount of time for RND it takes to put together an informative segment. 🤙🏼
Found your video by sheer luck and I’m glad I did because this looks simple and straightforward, but more importantly cheap! How has it been since your install?
I installed mine in this location, mounted directly to the plate but still some slight rubbing on the hood insultation. Nothing I'm too worried about. Haven't hooked up all the wiring yet, wanted to see if I noticed any increased engine noise from the cover being removed. I did not notice a difference in noise. I did however notice that the ARB gets VERY hot after driving around only a few minutes. Have you had any trouble airing up after a trail ride due to the ARB overheating? Do you need to let it cool off for a while before using with it mounted here? Thanks for the videos!
No issues.
Love this mounting place. Do you have a video of the installation? I bought the compressor and could use help on the install. Are you and your gladiator in instagram?
Great video! I am looking to buy an ARB compressor and ARB lockers. Which ARB compressor is this, so I make sure I get the one that will fit in this location.
Its the ckma12 was the pump
Thanks for the info. But I have a TJ.
Will this fit under the hood of the Jeep Gladiator Diesel?
Great idea! took the time to wire mine in very nicely in the Wayalife location, but I like this idea better and might relocate mine. One question though, after removing the cover do you notice any additional engine noise while driving?
No, its still very quiet and not noticeable. Thanks for checking in.
TewlTalk Done and it works great. Thanks for the awesome idea!
Where did you get the 90 degree brass elbow from? That connects to the air chuck?
Found it Home depo has it (brass pipe street elbow 1/4 in MIP X 1/4 in FIP)
Does this work on the Jeep JL 2.0L turbo engine? I don't think the engine covers are the same. Let me know your thoughts
Can I do this in my jl 2019 2.0 sahara? How do you installed that bracket? Hope you have the actual video when you installed it..
There is no install video. Its a very easy bracket to bolt on. It wouldnt be worth the time to make a video.
That driver side top of the engine compartment has several mounts, but I wouldn’t put it in the engine bay to engine with. I agree that you want your investment to last so my location is the MORE bracket(next upgrade).
I will say that is an awesome location you found. Do you think an twin air compressor would fit there too?
No, its a tight fit. Buy this pump has plenty of capacity. For larger tires get a power tank. It will air up a 40 in a minute.
TewlTalk I thought about the power tank option also, but since I don’t have a trailer, and have the trektop from bestop I’m limited to how much stuff I take with me on the trail. I’d like to have a trailer in the future when I’m back in the mainland USA for longer trips and then I’ll probably have a power tank and have the compressor for the air lockers.
Any way to show the install? Is there anything else you need to buy?
What kind of magic trick does it take to get a bit on the existing stud(on the side closer to the middle of the engine? I cannot get a nut between the compressor and mounting bracket.
I removed the pump from the bracket first.
what about under pass front seat?
This is brilliant. Thanks for the tip. Are any additional parts required to install this? Do you happen to know if there is enough room in that part to install the larger ARB Twin?
I was going to ask the same thing, do you have a how to of this install?
@@Veloruche I heard back from him in the Facebook Wrangler JL Group. He said the Twin won't fit there. I am ok going with the smaller one so I am moving forward with the install.
Not that I know of
I dont, its two bolts after removing the engine cover, no extra parts needed. Everything comes with the pump. Good luck, its very straight forward.
I haven’t looked closely into this yet, but was there a way to retain/modify the engine cover with this install?
None that I could work and feel good about
Worst place to mount the compressor is anywhere under the hood. Regular temps of 150 cannot be good. Behind and under the passenger seat is where I mounted mine
You've been reading forums. I called ARB and have about 15 years in the offroad industry. This location is fine. What is not good, is next to the exhaust and behind the driver fender. The directions are clear about what you can and can't do. Just have to be careful in who you get your info from. Have a blessed day.
@@c130aviator I don’t really do forums much, but I think you’re right about me getting the under the seat location from there. My first Jeep was a 1984 CJ7 , I bought it new. My current LJ is 15 years old, and I also have a JK. I’m not exactly new at this. Thanks for the kind words.
You have to route wires inside for a switch, yet you ignore the under seat placement
What size was the fitting that screwed into the manifold?
Arb lists it as quarter inch for some fittings. The manifold is unique but can be found on their website for the pump install in pdf form.
1.30 protecting it from heat, why put a compressor where there is heat??
Great video. My bracket has a stud on the right side. I assume your truck does too. Did you use it?
Great question, I used the stud with a nut and washer under the hood that was out of sight. I believe you can use the nut and washer from the ARB kit but I did not try. The other side I just used ARBs hardware.
Just got the compressor delivered and the stud is too long and contacts the body of the compressor. I’ll work with it and see what I can do.
Good to know, you can adjust and move the pump around and clear it without modification. There is long slots avaliable to adjust placement. I also disassembled the entire bracket to install. Its fairly straightforward.
Got it.
I would also like to know if the cover that was removed from the engine to install the compressor can be cut or in some way modified so that it can still be in place to reduce the engine sound.
You could cut off the corner where the mount for the arb is positioned. Could be good option.
will this work with the dual ARB compressor??
Sadly no
Brandon I can’t find the CDMA pump I only see ckma
Thank you, good catch. It is the CKMA12.
TewlTalk thanks
TewlTalk i ordered one yesterday with hose and all attachments
I believe it is too hot for the compressor long term to be mounted in the engine bay.
That could be the case for many.
12 years ago I mounted my compressor in front of the brake booster under the hood on my JK. Didn’t like it because it was literally right over the exhaust manifold and gets a lot of heat. But I left it there just out of laziness at first.
That same pump is still there and working to this day. Don’t ask me how - but apparently ARB compressors are pretty tolerant of heat. I’ve had the air chuck so hot I couldn’t touch it for more than a couple of seconds - but the damn this just keeps working.
will it fit the bigger duel pump?
No. I think its too big
Have you had any complications due to this install?
No it has been perfect
Can you still remove the oil dip stick?
Great question. Yes.
Thanks
My injectors are louder than any of the other mechanisms in the engine.
Would there be enough room for a Dual ARB?
I see you already answered NO on a different post. Is there not room under the passenger seat?
There are companies making mounts for under the seat. I cant speak to them, but these pumps are loud, I have had a few of them over the last 20 years. I wouldnt want it in the cab.
Ever stick your hand between your alternator and your radiator? I can assure you there is nothing "Cold" about that location......
