    Not bad when the seat is up. I turned it on without the back seats there and it is just like any other small air compressor.

    Awesome, thanks for the pictures! I'm still using the E-locker/Atrac for now but I've been wanting to mount this same compressor for airing up and eventually running lockers when I swap over to arb's. I'd like to mount mine inside too, a lot of jeep guys do it under the seat but I like the placement of yours a little better I think...

    I will trade my truck to live in Maui. By far, one of my favorite places.

    Wait are you going to run disconnects "through" your bumpers? As in you can just hook up your hose to the bumper and bingo you got air?

    Now that is the way to do it. Looks like I will be ditching the PowerTank route.

    I'm assuming the panel for the backseat won't fit back there with the air compresser? If it doesn't do you have any planes to modify the panel to make it fit?

    Never mind. You have a DC

    Maybe he's referring to that black plastic storage tray that sits back there from factory?

    I'm not sure with the DC. You have the storage space behind your seats right? In my AC I just have a plastic panel that covers the metal back where you mounted your Air compressor and the space behind the panel seems like it would be too thin to mount the Air compressor.

    I guess a better way to word this is can you put you entire back seat back together with that aircompressor there? If so, what does it look like?

    he would be able to put the seat back on just not the plastic cubby hole that was there before. i took mine out and but 2 10 in subs behind my seat. on the dc without the plastic panel there is tons of room. and with the plastic panel gone and the seats up you cant even tell its gone

    Oh ok, the black plastic inserts. Yea, I removed those like a month after buying the truck in 2006. There is so much unused space back there. All of my tools and extra gear fit behind my back seats without those plastic inserts in there. Same thing goes for the plastic under the rear seats. Those are long gone as well.

    Clearly I've done no research on the ARB's because my e-locker has been a champion thus far! Thanks for the info though. Did you squeeze this same compressor under your hood? If so where? Thanks for the input.

    Moved my HAM and CB antennas. I had to move them because they were getting in the way of when I put stuff up on the roof racks. CB antenna is now my old firestik firefly using the fire ring coax mounted on the front bumper. HAM antenna is still the Larsen 2/70 mounted to the left of the hood in the corner.

    Also added a Demello sticker to the hood for +12 HP :cool:
