Where's your Arb locker compressor?
As per the title. I am thinking that I might prefer the compressor outside the cab on Eric. There is room behind the battery box, but I don't know if the compressor is water resistant, on whether there is a mounting box, or whether to make a box.

Your ideas welcome!

Ive a ViAir one not for a locker but with a separate tank mounted under the drivers side floor underneath

I had an arb but it wasnt up to the duty I needed. There is no reason you could not mount outside the car as it is very noisy.

You can route the air intake to inside the cab so it is dry and clean
