5.0 Fast fill time, worth the $$

Fills my 285/75R17 tires from 18 to 38 psi very quickly! Installed in a 813 Fabrication mount in the bed of my Gladiator. It does take some beefy wire if installing far from the battery. It comes with dual 10AWG wires, each fused for 40A. I wired 6AWG back to the bed for this.

Question & Answers

Q: Will this mount under the hood of my 2021 Galdiator, and will it air up my 40's? Answer this question

A: I don’t know for sure how much space you have in the engine compartment but i was able to easily put the CKMTA12 twin compressor under my trucks backseat Ram (TRX) . It will easily air up 40’s In no time.  I air up 4 35’s at the same time with a multi line I made.  Takes less than 10 minutes to air up all 4 at the same time. Totally worth having!!! 

Answered by Frosty.TRX from Southern California on 10/08/2022

A: I mounted the ARB Twin compressor under the passenger seat of my JK. One to protect it from the elements since it's an expensive piece of hardware. I also added the one-liter air storage tank. And believe it or not it all fits. You have to purchase the additional under seat bracket. I can only tell you there is not much room under my hood to mount the compressor. they make a couple mounts. problem is now you have to work around the compressor every time you want to work on the engine. Good Luck.

Q: Does this come with the wire harness to hook it up or do I have to buy that separately  Answer this question

A: I hate to admit this but I don't remember. I don't believe so but I can't guarantee that. The reason being is I bought several items to make the installation under the driver's side fender possible. Even if you do it's worth the money as this is by far one of the most important upgrades you need.

Answered by Cody from Kentucky on 07/03/2022

A: Comes with the harness for power, switch and the manifold but you have to buy the manifold separate if you’re wanting to run air lockers. Grimm off road sells a more simplified harnesses

Answered by Joe w on 06/30/2022

Q: 2 questions; 1- would it be beneficial to use rubber grommets to help isolate vibration noise if yes what would you recommend. 2nd - Regarding mounting brackets does this come with mounting brackets if not what would for a 2018 Colorado ZR2. Answer this question

A: For my application, I did not use any rubber grommet. The unit is directly bolted to the custom tray in the engine bay. It did not come with any bracket, you have to search the webz for the ideal place in your truck, and if there trays/adapters available. If you have to do it other than the engine bay area, you have to run a longer heavier gauge wire. The OEM wire is just enough to run in or around the engine bay unless you have other power source. 

Answered by Reece from San Jose, CA on 02/23/2021

A: Probably, but would depend on your mounting solution. It doesn’t come with mounting brackets, but there are aftermarket manufacturers that make ARB compressor mounting brackets for specific vehicles, it looks like 589 Fab has one for the Colorado. 

Answered by Caleb on 02/20/2021

Q: Can you run air tools directly off this compressor or is an air tank needed? Answer this question

A: Run a tank to keep the power up or the compressor will just cycle the whole time

Answered by Rb88 from Md on 11/03/2020

A: You would need an air tank. And a decent sized one. Another option is to carry an electric ratchet and/or impact wrench. Or get a PowerTank if you are stuck on air tools.

Answered by Fetus114 from Los Angeles CA on 11/02/2020

Q: Sorry but I have 2 questions: 1. If I mount this under my '13 JKU between the muffler and gas tank will it fail to work underwater? 2. If I mount this inside my '13 JKU somewhere behind the rear seat will it make so much noise that I'll regret it? Thanks, Patrick Answer this question

A: Hey N3mo, either way would work fine without issues. I would personally mount inside or under the hood. Thanks for your question.
