Thread: Where to mount an ARB compressor in a Defender?

under your passenger seat box

thats where mine is, and i run the air nozzle through the front of the box :wink: :wink:


if you would like a pic i could e-mail it to you

I put mine in with the battery under the passenger seat.

I don't have dual batteries etc, so no issue.

Under the passenger seat is already taken up with two batteries, and a redarc isolator. I do have a Black Widow roller drawr in the back also, so would one of the storage compartments be ideal?, This would mean moving two (usually wet, and muddy) golden retrievers to access.
Thanks,

I have mine under the drivers seat due to having dual batteries under passenger seat.Just cut a hole in the front of the box and mounted up a fitting to plug the air hose into....

I had the same problem when I had the compressor and wanted to fit a ARB diff lock. my machainc recommended I put it under the driver’s wing bolted through the guard,(up nice and high). I hve had no problems with mine in the yaer it has been there.

Mine is under the passenger side rear seat, just open the door and it is there. Very easy to route all the wires from there as well, plus it stays cool when working and repairs etc are very easily done.

Mine is mounted under the drivers seat, also have an accumulator fitted under the seat. I have a hose connection on the front bar. Need to put an outlet at the rear as my hose does not reach the caravan.

Mine is under the left rear passenger seat. It was installed in that position by ARB.
