    I bought the small ARB compressor to run my rear locker, I'm looking fro a place to install it. So far the location I've found to be most reasonable is the rear tool pocket in the bed. Airline will be very close to the differential, just will end up with lots of electrical wires run through the frame of the truck.

    Anyone have any pics of where they mounted their OBA compressor?

    I have a URD TCAI so when I get my OBA set up its going under the hood where the three bolts are welded to the inside of the fender.

    When i regear and go with lockers I plan on mounting the arb air compressor in the engine bay on the passenger fender. I used the drivers side fender for my winch solenoid box.
