    Thanks!
    Keith. Pretty much down to you I will be fitting an ARB type locker into the rear of mine soon. It comes complete with a compressor solenoids, loom and switches.
    Having given some thought to fitting a second compressor with all the loom involved I am thinking it would be a whole lot simpler to T off the air tank and fit a generic 12v air solenoid which I could easily wire up to a nice switch.
    So a few more questions. Where did you T from. What type of solenoid did you use. Did you fit some sort of pressure reducer, if so what type. Pics of your fitment please

    It feels good to have inspired someone else! Cheers! I have tapped into the air tank, run a ball valve off a 90 degree elbow and then a t piece from there, one line to the engine bay for pumping up tyres, etc, one line to the compartment where the emergency fuel release is then I put another t piece in, one line to upper luggage area for pumping tyres and the other for the locker solenoid. I have not reduced the air pressure to the solenoid at all.

    I'll take pics and put up the parts list when I'm next home from work! The solenoid used is the one supplied by Ashcroft when I purchased the locker ($700 cheaper to my door than the arb air locker).

    On the topic of switch location, I have no room on the dash so I chose the spot you can see in the vid. I have bumped it once, but that does not matter as the air supply to the locker stays isolated until I head off road, simply a matter of keeping an eye in the switch when hopping in and out!

    Cheers
    Keithy
