Hot? Who told you that?

Just chuck a leg of lamb in next to your compressor, you'll have dinner in no time!

I had my ARB compressor mounted under the bonnet of my V8 Rangie for about 9 years. It is now mounted behind the cab of the 130 and still going as strong as ever.

Don't forget the engine driven 'air on board' option here... Find an old AC pump, mount it, fit up an air line and flick the switch...
