where is your ARB compressor
« on: May 29, 2009, 02:53:31 »
Hi, am soon fitting a pair of ARB lockers to the disco and was wondering where people have fitted their compressor in disco. Im probably going for the larger compressor so I can do tires as well.
The Disco is a D1 300 V8 by the way.

Cheers all

Andy

When I had lockers in ASBO, I mounted the compressor behind the rear trim in the back, with an airline out
pipe to a connector in the rear wing.

On mY RRC it's in the back quarter.

Think about where you are likely to get stuck with water filing the cabin, so avoid low down just inside the back door say, then avoid having it next to your earholes as they aren't quiet.

Cheers all !
was thinking of an under the passenger seat but think I will take out one of the rear dickie seats and box it in there. there's just no room under the bonnet any more, got the second battery going in plus the snorkel pipe, the LPG evaporator is moving again to free off the top passenger wing for the coil packs its all getting very cramped.

I have heard of people putting theirs under the bonnet - most these people have then moved them inside and high up!

Mine is a defendfer and its on my rollcage behind the passenger seat at about shoulder height, held on with exhaust clamps. Its not on often so the noise isnt a worry for me.
