    I don't know, but you can ask the owner as he's a member here.

    I don't know how to tag someone who has an @ in their name so here's their profile:

    Judging from your other products I don't doubt yours will be better if you build it. I'd even be willing to buy one if you put it in your store. That ARB Twin is high on my to do list.

    I have been doing some research and i like the expedition essentials mount.

    I did want to get info on the arb mount before i pulled the trigger. Cant even find a photo of it actually mounted in a tacoma to see how they differ.

    The mount OP posted could definitely be interesting depending on how/where it mounts.

    I'm hoping to start working on my install this weekend so I'll probably have more info/pics later. My plan at least for now is just fitting it completely into the large cubby; we'll see how everything goes once I start. It's only a a single and not the twin. I'll make a more in depth process on the build but my plan is to have a box to the right of the compressor for the fuse & relay then another box mounted behind the wheel for the bus bar.

    Test fitting

    Just installed mine today. Need to do wiring still. Thinking about a fuse box somewhere back there. Here is what it looks like.

    I used a product that I sell, Cubby Caps, link is in my signature. They make a huge difference in what gets into the cubby from driving

    Working on it trying to get everything wired up since the stock harness isn't enough to make it to the back of the bed. I've fit it enough to know that it'll fit in the large cubby without a problem. As can be seen by my living room it's been a process/learning experience getting it done right.

    Haha yah I tried a couple times and it was close depending on if it was shifted to one side or the other a bit. I was mainly worried how the clearance would be affected with the Mobtown doors since those are what I'm going to use and I haven't ordered them yet.

    Installed an Expedition Essentials cubby with the ARB single a while back. Have taken it on a few trips, and it is great.

    Best part is how fast you can air up. Push the dash mounted switch, plug in your hose and go.

    The top is open, it gets a little dusty like everything else does when your in the dirt for a few days straight, but nothing crazy.

    That's how mine ended up working in that position.
    I am going to put a fuse box in the back and run the switch next to the compressor.

    I have been running the Expedition essentials bed mount kit for over 6 months now and I live in the land of rain and mud.....NW Washington. Not a single issue. I went a little overboard and added a tank and all.


    If you are interested, here is a write up I did on the setup. I have added the Switch-Pros 9100 since the write up
