Dirt Daily. Newbsock gets an ARB air compressor

Every 4x4 that goes off road could use an on board air system. Airing down your tires is the cheapest way to make your 4x4 work better (and ride better) off road, and airing back up is nice for street driving and tire longevity. On this episode I'll show you some insights on the ARB Twin Air Compressor I'm installing on my 2018 Jeep JL NewbSock.
to find the air compressor go here:

this is the portable compressor I carry in vehicles without onboard air:

The tool kit I installed is from Mopar part number 82219119AA or JP0006

the wire loom I used is from Painless Performance and available in different sizes.

That "wrenches on a carabiner" that we just casually glossed over is a brilliant trick! Stole that!

[@sosllc]

Thanks Fred for adding all the gear on my Newbsock. Oh, in case you didn't know, I'm the next owner of Newbsock😊. I would have added everything you have put on it so far . Keep up the great work.

[@ocjohnweber9698]

Fred, you may want to add a storage bottle to that setup. Helps quite a bit when you’re filling big tires or running an air tool.

[@derdely]

I really like the install Fred, love the videos as always. As far as the cover plate for your compressor compartment, maybe you should do some kind of vented metal plate? I would say expanded metal but that stuff can be kind of sharp.

[@4xFredWilliams]

thats a good idea,

[@leewaddell8561]

I like the tool kit...

[@jasonscharf97tj]

Awesome idea Fred looks good 👍

[@noberet]

Thank you for your courage!

[@kendalljohnson439]

Been wish listing this for a couple years on my TJ. Love seeing you install it.

[@dougstarwalt8984]

Nice content Fred. Every compressor install has positives and negatives (groan).

[@brentmcmillan646]

Great video Fred! I have to admit that a few times I was having flashbacks to the Micromachine commercials. LOL 😂

[@timpowell6901]

Great Job Fred!

[@taunovalo2964]

Hi Fred, D-H Dave is totally cool with you two fixing the Avalanche!

[@JustinFoster-xf5qu]

Great install Fred. I mounted in the same place on my JK. With all our gear packed in the back it’s actually quieter than under the hood. The one thing I did do was use the remote filter mounts so it would pull in cool air instead of hot air from the closed compartment.

[@BionMTG]

My JL came with that tool roll. I am 100% aware that for the money, you could get more for less, but it came with the roll, and i love that damn thing. I've fixed so many things / grabbed stuff from the pick and pull, and was super happy to get that roll with my rig. I mean, my jeep also came with onboard air, but I love your videos, and will always watch em! haha Thanks Fred!

[@1dave301]

Maybe space up the cover over the rear compartment to make sure enough cooling air moves around. Motors and compressed air make heat. maybe wooden block chunks.

[@whitewolfoverland117]

How do you plan to keep the compressor from overheating closed up in such a small space. I really like the idea, though, if that issue can be solved.

[@stephenbeard9882]

Especially if you’re letting your buddies air up with it too.

[@johnfitzgerald5158]

I like my passengers, so my compressors go under the hood.

[@karmafarbus160]

Oh good, it's only 600 bucks . I thought it was going to be expensive .

[@moto4641]

arent the diff lockers operated by air? how are they controlled/aired?

[@ghettobirdish]

but when are you ever going to run the compressor with the lid closed and all the tools packed up beside it? is a good spot just leave it how it is

[@upscaleshack]

Guessing MOPAR gave you the tool roll as a promotion? Because if you paid $540 for $50 worth of tools...wow.

[@DB-yj3qc]

I looked up the tool bag n tools, I would have liked the bag (roll) and a few of the tools. But not that much. 😮 😢

[@mitchellholroyd2837]

What are your thoughts on internal bead locks?

[@4xFredWilliams]

I have run them in the past, but don't really feel they are worth the added weight and complexity

[@mitchellholroyd2837]

@@4xFredWilliams I guess I didn't think about the weight 😕. But I never weighed my standard wheels against my deadlock wheels.

[@TerinasAdventures]

First! 🎉

[@foygill711]

ARB stands for always really broken. KIS keep it simple.

[@4xFredWilliams]

I don't know about that, I've had really good luck with my ARB parts.

[@foygill711]

@4xFredWilliams maybe they work on the west coast . Everyone I know here has chucked them in the garbage . Detroit or spool. Hell even Lincoln lockers are better.

[@MrTayloriron]

MORE FLAT FENDER! 😅

[@litfuses7765]

The real question we are all wondering: does Fred run carpet??

[@4xFredWilliams]

newbsock has carpet, but most of my other rigs do not.

[@tonyramirez3645]

Is that a legal knife in CA, semi fully automatic assault knife! 😆 🤣 😂

[@4xFredWilliams]

what are you a knife cop?😄

[@offroadingidiot]

How hot are the twin compressors supposed to get, mine brand new has always run so hot it literally runs to fill my small 1 gallon tank and it's so hit you can't touch it or get near it and it sounds different from the different compressor sides.

[@johnfitzgerald5158]

If it is anything like my single, it gets really freakin' hot. If it gets too hot, it will auto-shut off. Perhaps the dual doesn't work quite as hard. Still, I would never put it inside the cab or, for that matter, packed in a closed container with gear.
