    Is this all I need to install my arb lockers on my truck or I'm missing something. Just want to have all the parts I need before I bring it to a shop

    I think it comes down to having a place to mount the valves if you are using solenoids. The air tank isn't necessary for the operation of the air lockers, but I guess his recommendation was to have it to mount the valves to.

    You definitely need the air locker solenoid. That's what it's for. The other thing is an air tank but that's totally seperate and only necessary when you're running your compressor constantly. Aardvark 13 is mistaken the two things... Coldfuzion is right.

    Call a local shop and ASK THEM WHAT YOU NEED. Otherwise you may miss something or just not get the correct information.

    Sounds good. What about airing my tires with the same compressor. Do I need other parts for it??

    I had mine done and plumbed up by ECGS supply when they were doing my front and rear swaps and it was needed. The only other thing I forgot to mention is where you are mounting it you may need a bracket. I went with a slee offroad one for passenger side of the engine bay since driver side was taken up with electrical.

    Nope you add your quick chuck to the manifold and can hook your air hose there to fill your tires.

    Nope! You're good. You'll be able to do both.

    Don't you have the drivers side storage cubby in the bed? Consider the Expedition Essentials bedside mount. I love mine it's fantastic.

    I do. But I'm gonna need to purchase the extension harness right? Not sure if I want to spend another 3 to 400 for it. Lol I love that idea and was watching YouTube was nice clean and easy access.

    Yeah that would also be needed unless you wired one up yourself. It was kindve a pain in the ass but it's so damn clean I'm glad I did it (I even had to cut the compartment into my truck bed cause I didn't have one) . I really didn't want to need to go under the hood to use my compressor when I'm always at the back of the truck.

    Looks like you've already given it consideration! Enjoy the compressor it's a badass one.

    All I said is the air locker does not need an air tank(manifold). Yes solenoids are necessary, or you can use pneumatic switches. Air tank is not necessary except its a handy place to mount the solenoids if you buy arb solenoids..
