    pinstripes. lots of pinstripes.
    I went with the EE bedside mount, but need to work out how I'm going to run quick disconnects to the front and back bumpers. Oh, and I need a sale on the compressors or go with the smaller single. But that's no fun.

    Hell I should have waited on a sale. I went full price and I know it will take me quite awhile to get the value out of it. But my daughter loves how quickly I can blow up her inflatable pool.

    Placing a compressor on the grill is probably the worst place for it. I would definitely keep an eye on it and clean the filters regularly.

    So far it has worked out. I do not offroad a ton, but have planned on more than likely moving it in the future.

    As with everything, it does until it doesn’t. Good luck.

    Just to chime in. I put my ARB single on my switch pros using the ARB adapter for SP. something to keep in mind is that I believe switch 7&8 are rated for higher amps than 1-6 so it would be a good idea to wire the ARB up to 7 or 8

    Great call. I also used the adapter and mounted on 8.

    The ARB wire on the Switchpro is the trigger to the relay. The twin compressor pulls 50 amps under load which goes straight to the motors, bypassing the switch.

    Switches 1-4 are rated for 20A, 5-8 are 35A.

    Thanks for the answers on the ground wire, makes sense of course, , sometimes i second guess myself even when i know the answer, old age i guess.
    anyway at this point on my install.
    i mounted the arb twin behind the seat, fit great, ran the wires and ss hose under the rear seat to the small storage hole, stripped it and mounted the manifold. then used ss bulkhead fittings to route the lines out of the cab and under the truck next to the frame rail.
    still not complete, at my age it takes me some time lol.
    do not judge my rear speaker, that is 100% temporary,,,one thing at a time.
