$143 DIY Overland Onboard Air Install - Jeep TJ

In most of my overlanding trips, I usually air down when hitting the trail, but that usually makes airing up a little more annoying, even though I have a compressor. In this project, I wanted to give my portable air compressor a permanent home under the hood so I wouldn't have to lug it in and out of the vehicle and connect it to the battery each time. In the engine bay of my Jeep TJ, there was a perfect spot where the washer fluid reservoir used to be and I put my air compressor into its place. It's been working perfectly ever since and I highly recommending going this route if you want to save some money. Happy wheeling! - Grant

If those rubber feet dont stand up to being hard mounted get a rubber hockey puck and a 1 inch hole saw . They held up in north Dakota winter over 5 years and 2 different compressors. I ran a short hose off the compressor and hard mounted a coupler to bumper by the winch. Rewired the switch to a toggle in the cab . Dont have to open the hood every time you air up . If you ever see a propane converted pick up in the junk yard look along the frame rails for two tankes that are around 8inches round and 30 inches long. They make excellent air tanks and fit real nice under jeeps. Just some thoughts from some of my air systems.if you ever think of using an AC compressor for onboard air look for the mid 70 dodge twin stage AC compressor. They put out 210 psi all day long. No need for air storage tanks. 👍

[@vittoamp]

You got me building my stock TJ into an overland build. Thank you for the inspiration. Please continue the videos!

[@ArkansasOffroad]

vittoamp You’re very welcome! Glad to hear you’re inspired!

[@markblandford9346]

I always enjoy your videos. I like the way you improvise, instead of always just going out and buying the latest mod, like some youtubers do. Looking forward to your next video, as always.

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Mark Blandford That’s the idea. I like coming up with my own solutions. Usually does the job just as well as the expensive stuff. Thanks for the support!

[@crippleshot4810]

The filter from the VIAIR compressor is made of metal and is the same size threads and dimensions. Available on the web site and fairly inexpensive. I have the same compressor as yours and my filter broke almost immediately so I replaced it with the VIAIR one. No problems since. It’s also chrome. Looks cool on the red pump.

[@stantheman9002]

With that compressor, I've seen people run a piece of air hose and put the air filter in the cab of the vehicle. It might be a fairly easy way for you to not have to worry about it breaking due to engine heat while also keeping it in a more dust free environment. I've been running the same compressor for about 4 years now with my only complaint being how hot it gets. Now I want to mount mine in my Tacoma for on board air.

[@ayayron7776]

Favorite Off-road channel please keep the videos coming

[@ArkansasOffroad]

AY AY Ron Wow, thank you!

[@TheAtvRider90]

I would run hard lines to the front and rear of the Jeep and have quick connects to connect a shorter and smaller coil hose to. This would save space in the Jeep and make airing up and down a little easier. Also, if possible, I would run the compressor to an interior switch so you don’t have to open the hood.

[@rickclement9439]

I have that same compressor and I did what you were wanting to do. I took the head of the compressor off Re-drilled and re-tapped it for the proper thread for Quick connect

[@CodyandKellie]

I have a small compressor that we have carried around with us for a long time, and always disliked the fact that it took of storage space. This is a great alternative! Will definitely be looking to do this in our rig. Also, thank you for the shout out!

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Yeah same here. I hated getting it out of my storage space, using it, and putting it up. Glad you like it! And no problem!

[@BrianDavisAwesome]

I've had this same compressor for about 10 years, I almost installed it in the same area in my TJ. But I just kept it in a bag. I carry it in my JK now. I saw a review on that compressor somewhere a few years ago and it was rated very well. Thanks for the video, now I am thinking about mounting it in the jk.

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Awesome!

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Also, I forgot to mention that this compressor does have an inline fuse already built in. It's about a foot down on the wire from the compressor. When I tucked the wire away, it was out of the shot so nobody could see it. Thanks to those for noticing that! - Grant

[@MosStephResell]

Arkansas Offroad thank you for doing this. Why did you need a fuse? I have a husky air compressor I can plug into my cigarette lighter and I was attempt this project

[@ArkansasOffroad]

@@MosStephResell It's a safety precaution. The fuse will break, killing the power to the compressor rather than if something goes wrong with the compressor the line being live still. And if I'm correct, your cigarette lighter should have its own fuse.

[@twistedlv]

@@MosStephResell Ideally you want the fuse right at the power source, in case you rub thru or nick a wire somehow. Cigarette lighter wiring is pretty small guage, and can get really hot when using something like a compressor. I always use the battery clamps when using my little Viair. Larger wire=less resistance.

[@MosStephResell]

Arkansas Offroad thanks for the reply. Specifically, I have a husky tire inflator and it has a fuse inside the inflator. I don’t have attachments to attach to the battery terminals, just one going into the cigarette lighter. I’m just gonna have to purchase the one you have or something similar that attaches to the battery terminals.

[@MosStephResell]

twistedlv thank you for this info. I have a husky tire inflator, I’m sure the wires are smaller like you said compared to the ones that attach to the terminals.

[@jeeper426]

for your air cleaner for the compressor, run a hose to the factory airbox from the inlet side of your compressor, that'll draw air through the filter in the airbox and keep debris out of the compressor, nice build man, pretty good idea, i've got a compressor i picked up a year or two ago from autozone that i was looking to do something similar with on a '91 XJ

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Good idea, thanks!

[@mr.bluegrass9723]

I'm empressed in your knowledge of designing and making it . congratulations

[@ArkansasOffroad]

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Thank you!

[@mariodesmo]

I did almost the exact same thing on my TJ about 10 years ago. Except I mounted my compressor on the passenger side. There is a couple of boss's on the engine block between the oil filter and alternator area, and they're already drilled and tapped. I simply mounted a similar "L" shaped mounting bracket to the block. One piece of advice, I installed an air tank and that was a complete waste. It took longer to air up with the tank since I was not only airing up the tires but also the tank so I removed it. It actually took me longer to air up when I had the air tank. I get similar air-up times with mine, about 1 minute per tire. I run 15psi on the trail, and about 26-28psi on the street depending on how the tires wear. Good Luck!

[@Logan-te3iq]

INSPIRATION: Inspiration comes from many things in life and it is amazing KZbin can connect people from around the world. Though we live in different states (I live in Washington State) you my friend inspired me to keep to the path - the 4x4 path. Its March 2020, I tuned into your videos about two and a half weeks ago (Feb.2020). Perfect timing to, I was starting to feel a little blah about my '99 tj. I've been known to say "a jeep is ever changing" it is the one vehicle that can change its look when ever the feeling hits you ($$$) ;) Keep posting, and I am looking into jumping onto the KZbin band-wagon this spring or summer.

[@ArkansasOffroad]

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Awesome!!

[@tangledline]

Nice. I have the same setup but with limited space in a TJ...I put mine in the corner behind the rollbar. I then wrapped the air hose That heavy duty coiled one wraps good around the roll bar itself.

I installed this today in the empty spot where the AC compressor would have gone. Thanks for the parts list and the idea. So glad i already had the compressor. My only complaint is the hose is stinky and I’m not sure I want it in the cab

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Awesome! Glad it worked out. Yeah it does have a smell.

[@wang576]

Nice and fun project, I installed 2 air compressor into my 18 4rnr as well, easy peasy, zip tie-men’s best friend 😁

Hey What did you do with the washer fluid tank?

[@ianmburke]

Awesome info especially the hose size vs inflation time

[@83SquareK20]

Appreciate your videos and the wealth of knowledge you share!

[@tylerm97]

Great video! The only thing I would say is you have to put a fuse if your compressor burns out or the positive lead grounds out....you will burn up that Beautiful Jeep!! 15-20 amp fuse will work fine. Even if you did a 30 amp fuse anything is better than no fuse!! I’ve personally seen 2 people burn up their rigs because they didn’t use fuses on their aftermarket parts.

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Good looking out! I do have a fuse already wired up. Thanks!

[@AndrewBrowner]

got a good deal on a 3000watt inverter so gonna run that with a 120v air compressor, might have to seperate the compressor head and tank for better packing in the jeep, i do alot of trade work almost as a hobby so having 120v power for tools and air for nailers in the jeep on offgrid locations will be useful!

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Nice!!

[@geoffersongeofferies477]

Another great idea and solid execution. I wish I had that much room under the hood of my JK.

[@MLXX2000]

Nice vid man! The Tj looks sick, I’ve got a YJ but you have me inspired to do this!

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Nice install i would suggest looming your wires tho as an added measure of protection. Things get hot under the hood of a jeep.

[@tombuckley4600]

Great video and nice install. Clean and classy, nice fit!

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Thanks!

[@AddictedToJeepsCom]

Awesome idea! I wish our JK had room under the hood! Hmmmm, maybe I can mount ours in the trunk of our Jeep, in that center cubby under the carpet....

[@KellyBarnes]

Awesome set up. You definitely want to get a cap for the air outlet, we have problems with mud daubers clogging up our air hoses, if left uncapped. 👍

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Yep, already did. Thanks!

[@daveh7945]

run a hose from the air filter on the the engine to the inlet on the compressor. that way you don't need to mess with the flimsy plastic filter. it shoulkd be some easy plumbing and maybe $20 in parts

[@Tyler91056]

Being that bracket you made was aluminum, you'll need to go ahead and replace the grinding wheel you used to take the edges off after you cut it. If it was a standard grinding wheel, it more than likely got loaded up with aluminum and could possibly fragment. So be careful if you use it again 👍

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Thanks for the heads up!!

[@Tyler91056]

@@ArkansasOffroad sure thing man! Love the videos and ideas you're sharing. Working on a TJ myself and your videos really open my imagination to what I can do for my build. I'm a machinist so I'm hoping that will come in handy. If you need any help with metalworking please do shoot me any questions. Would be more than happy to help.

[@theinventor5361]

Hey mate what did you do with your washer fluid bottle, did you relocate it?

[@garygomer7940]

Oh boy ... I don’t want to sound critical, but, you should always disconnect, and leave disconnected, the negative battery cable while you are attaching anything to the positive terminal of your battery to prevent “welding your wrench” to the metal of your vehicle. Great project man, I just might do the same with my rig. Thanks for sharing.

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Appreciate the feedback, and yes you're totally right. Should have disconnected first. Thanks!

[@waynemorrison9673]

Also buddy u might throw a fuse in that positive close to the battery

[@ArkansasOffroad]

@@waynemorrison9673 Yes, thanks for that! I failed to mention that the compressor does have an inline fuse already built in. It's about a foot from where the wire comes out of the compressor. I tucked it behind the lip of the fender and it was out of sight in the video.

[@waynemorrison9673]

Arkansas Offroad 👍🏻 that’s cool but the power in the wire won’t stop till it hits that pointwhere the fuse is at An if u rub a bare spot anywhere before the fuse then fire happens lol

@@waynemorrison9673 Good looking out! Thanks.

[@KyleSVT]

Great video bro!

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Thanks Kyle!

[@313Leeland]

Mounting the Air compressor under the hood has one big draw back Heat. The Air Compressor has an overheat protection for running too long, now mounted under the hood the compressor gets "pre heated" by the engine and cuts out sooner especially in hot climates.

[@caidhg]

If that pump's not fused you should add an in-line to it and you could put the hose around the pump

[@ArkansasOffroad]

I have an inline fuse hooked up. Thanks!

[@Andrew-dg7qm]

I like this idea. I’ve had the same compressor, probably longer than you, and I need gloves or a rag for the hot components. I need to do this...and hopefully the mount as well. I don’t mind taking the compressor out, and I have my air tools in the passenger grab bar bag, but anything I can do to make lower the hassle factor=👍

[@BerniesBastelBude]

I really admire your technical skills and I'm impressed what you can mount on a small TJ! If you would replace your softtop with a Bestop Supertop (what I have) it may add little bit more room in the back (for your dog).

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Thank you! Yes you're right. Not having a fast back top would give me some more room, but I do like the look. Plus my roof rack was built to the same angle as the fast back soft top.

[@famous140]

Right on...clean jeep bro!

[@Ryan_Tidwell]

Great video. Personal experience tells me you might not be as excited about the spring loaded tire chuck after you have used it a few times and it won't stay on anymore. I'd keep the screw on one just in case. I've gone through 4 of the HF tire chuck with lock on lever and they don't last for me. I have been looking for a location for my compressor for a while. I hope my install turns out as great as yours. Nice job.

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Appreciate the advice. I'll definitely keep the other screw on adapter just in case. Thanks!

[@zschlecht08]

As always love the vids man. Thanks for making them

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Thank you!

[@josepholiveri8546]

Nice video. Simple and to the point. I am concerned with you having water egress into the compressor electric motor. I think a simple plastic box would cure that issue. Also have you considered adding a pressure switch and possibly a small tank. I was thinking that a couple of feet of 1.25 -2.00 inch PVC mounted under the carriage then plumbed up to points near the front and rear bumpers would work. Just a thought... good job.

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Appreciate the ideas!

Great video, I've been watching you for sometime now. Have you thought about water getting in your engine compartment? I'm in Geogia, there is a lot of river crossing there. I dont think mounting in my engine would work. I am thinking in the back might be an area for me. I have the same pump and it's great.

[@rustybottoms8859]

Great job! Good use of space. I will definitely consider adding to my TJ. Question, is there a fuse of any kind on the power wire going from the battery to the compressor? Also just an idea, as I got more and more wires going to my positive terminal on the battery I went to a marine style battery end and eventually a power distribution block. Aka busbar. Keep up the low buck ideas. 👍

[@jeremyhollamon1343]

Great idea. Love your creativity. But question the reliability and longevity of that compressor now being under your hood getting all the elements all of them your engine heat Steam water freezing temperatures so on. I see this video is a year old. Would very much like your input on how it has held up for you in your state.

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Jeep has been sold but as far as I know, it's holding up well. You have to think too that the compressor itself gets super hot just in normal use anyway, so I wouldn't say that heat would be an issue. I have a couple local buddies who did this exact same thing in their rig and it's been working great still. It is near the fan, so at least it gets some air. Plus I had the hood louvers on my hood to let heat escape.

[@ctrlnull5308]

that is going to get very dirty with that tj engine fan. but super cool setup. i ended up just mounting an old pump from a used camaro to the back. fills up my 33's just fine

[@lefty5631]

I have the same exact compressor,that thing gets hot just put rag and water down when your running it

[@Cody_1776]

So what did you do with your windshield washer fluid container? Relocate? Eliminate? Another great video man, nicely done!

[@keithgabel755]

I am wondering the same thing as I can’t imagine not having mine to wash the windshield just whenever.

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Never had one in there since I’ve owned the Jeep. Honestly never needed it anyway.

[@JeepTJWheelin]

You just gave me a great idea. Going to be installing a Thor Cowl TJ cai. This allows for removing the entire air box housing. That's where my Viair compressor will be going. O///////O 🇺🇸 JEEP ON 🇺🇸 '41 - '06

Hey I know you changed your bumper into a stinger style bumper . Is there anyway you can show or tell us how you did it , I’m trying to do the same with my Jeep. Great vids keep it up dude !

[@ArkansasOffroad]

Thanks! I don't really have much more to explain really. In one of my videos I have a few pictures of the process when I cut it. Luckily, the end pieces I cut off weren't a part of the middle section. They were just welded on the outside, so there was no hole left over. The only holes that were left when I cut the end tubes off was the bottom sides, where I added a metal circle as a cap. Got those pieces welded into the hole and grinded it all smooth and painted.

[@michelleparrott2163]

As always nice diy and video! 🙂

[@Andrew-dg7qm]

Just an update on my installation. A few screws rattled loose on the road and I had to tie it up temporarily on the trail. Keep an eye on your fasteners and carry wrenches. They’re metric 0.8. I replaced with hex heads because the square head bits are hard to find and are harder to get to in the engine bay. Also was a pain to tighten because, the way they’re fitted, I had to take everything apart to replace a couple screws and reassemble the whole mount. And I would use a thicker gauge plate for the AC compressor mount location if I did it again. Thx!

[@noahnakielski58]

Do you have any issues with this draining your battery? And also could you hook up an air gun to this, I use one every once in a while to get dirt or water out of places.

[@cademidgett6947]

Why don't you buy one of the really small little K&N air filters to replace the plastic air filter? Would probably work rather well in my opinion and maybe fit below the little black hose touching the plastic filter.

[@JustinHoMi]

How’s that air compressor holding up? Most don’t like heat, and I imagine putting it under the hood is going to shorten it’s life by quite a bit.

Nah, I'm not concerned. If the water is truly that high, I'll have several bigger problems lol.
