The Kraken Pressure Control Upgrade Kit is available here:

The Ginger takes us through an installation of the EPIC Kraken Tire Inflation System for your 2018+ Jeep Wrangler JL or your 2020+ Jeep Gladiator JT. Good News - The Kraken now works with the 2024 Jeep power seats!
Release the Kraken! Don't be a chump and air-up your tires one at a time... air-up all 4 tires at once with our EPIC Kraken Air-Inflation System. Lovingly crafted in-house, extensively tested and frequently requested - this kit is ready for prime time.
The EPIC MFG team has put together a CAD-designed mounting system that holds the ARB Twin Compressor under your Jeep passenger seat while plumbing air to both sides of the vehicle for easy, simultaneous, 4-tire inflation.
Kit Contents:
Passenger seat mounting plate.
Driver seat mounting bracket.
4 air lines, fittings, ring terminals, custom wiring harness and cross-over tubes. Everything you need to install.
An air line carry bag with a fancy Kraken branding from our friends at Adventure Trail Gear.
A nifty, high-quality 3M reflective Kraken decal to show your friends you know what's up.
Pressure Control Upgrade Kit Sold Separately.
Using only the very best hardware, the mounting plates/brackets are aluminum, anodized black and laser-etched. Fittings and tubes are of superb quality. There simply is not a better 4-tire inflation system available. Ask your mom - she knows.
You will need an ARB Twin Compressor (CKMTA12) - sold separately - which will come with the power wiring harness and the power switch.
This is a no-drill installation and we've made the electrical component of the install super simple with our own plug & play power switch wiring harness (included in the kit).
Please Note:
Right now, this kit only works for Jeep Wrangler JL (2018+, 4 door or 2 door models) and the Jeep Gladiator (2020+). This kit will not work in a Jeep Wrangler JK or any other vehicle.
The kit is designed specifically for the ARB Twin Compressor (CKMTA12). It may be possible to use another pump, but that's up to you.
Install Time: 2-3 hours

I watch these videos just for the big man funny AF !!

[@storminnft1368]

Was a nice add when you put filters on ARB and the shop guy started smokers coughing 😂

[@fiftyshadesofurban]

18:11 For mine I am glad they give that extra precaution because I broke one of the detents and one of my wires freely comes out until I put that black thing on. Then it stays put :)

[@fiftyshadesofurban]

24:03 I noticed this in mine. Your original guide doesn't include this part about cutting the floor mat. I just let the floor mat hang on top of the compressor LOL.

[@porkrindrob]

This is fancy, I like it. Ordered one

[@apettit7]

I bought the Kraken for my '18 JLUR shortly after it came out. Easy install. Works great!

[@EPIC-4WD]

Awesome! Thank you for your support! We appreciate you! Cheers from the team at EPIC!

I've got the same kinda setup on my ram, except the compresser is under the hood and I made a water proof box for the control box, I noticed the pressure control kit really slows down the inflation, I think it restricts airflow plus it stops frequently to check the pressure, I set up a bypass air line so when I'm inflating I can get the air right from the conpresser, it's alot faster, to fill 4 37's from 10 to 45psi it takes about 15 min, I'd probably get a headache listening to that noisy conpresser under my seat,

[@briencrotty2322]

This looks like an absolutely amazing system!!! Does it also deflate to a set pressure if you have the pressure control module?

[@djp1234]

still needs a deflate option and a pressure gauge.

[@jhaze66]

Hoping to win one of these. My current air up system is NOT Epic

[@iONsJeepingAdventures]

Might want to redirect the heat for winter bashing the blowing directly onto the ARB and the wiring could cause a issue cuz not everyone has common sense

[@mattbrew11]

Great video! Few questions: 1) has this been tested with the Armorlite flooring system? 2) can this be hooked up to my S pod or factory aux switches somehow? If so what changes? 3) has this been tested with the desert does it seat jackers or seat slammers? 4) can the pressures be set so the front tires go up/down different than the rears? The diesel seems to like about 2lbs more on and off road up front based on wear patterns and tire squish aired down Thanks!

[@EPIC-4WD]

Wow, lots of questions! Probably better if you just give us a call to discuss in the near year. Briefly: Armorlite - sure, SPod - sure, Seat jackers - as long as it doesn't lower the seat too much, All tires are connected - so just pull the air chucks off the rear tires sooner. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@mitchellbarnow1709]

Did you use the instructions on your first install or are you mechanically gifted? I am very impressed with your competency and your teaching abilities! Thank you for sharing this great product.

[@EPIC-4WD]

It's our product, manufactured by EPIC, thus we've made sure this install video and our written instructions are top-shelf ;-) Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@mitchellbarnow1709]

@@EPIC-4WD Now I think that you are even more awesome to have designed and had manufactured this great product!

[@noahdeneault6123]

I see on amazon the ARB brand name compressor goes for nearly double the cost of a non-band name, they look identical, any idea if those would work?

[@JoMonki]

So what is on the wheel end? Is there a different adapter there? Or does it need to be screwed on? Is it possible for you guys to do a more shot for shot instruction on setting up before trail and after?

[@EPIC-4WD]

We have quite few videos on our channel showing the usage. For reference, here's one from Shaun: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppm5c5abmpx3jposi=F45BXIPEwIqvmV5G

[@user-ob7xt8qf5x]

Only the switch cover is in the component, is the switch purchased separately?

[@This_is_My_Story]

I just received and installed my Kraken system but installed it the same way on your other video coming up the front drain plug. Does that mean I need to reroute to the back drain plug like in this video? I didn’t relocate the wires under the seat either as the other video didn’t require me to reroute the wiring is this something for the 2024 as I have the 2023 ?

[@EPIC-4WD]

Thanks for commenting - I believe from your description, that the way you have installed it is fine. However, if you could reach out to our tech department at [e-mail] with your concerns/description, we'll have one of our team respond to you on Monday morning. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@robertgarcia6385]

Do you offer this for the ram Ecodiesel

[@EPIC-4WD]

Currently the Kraken is only designed for the Jeep Wrangler JL or the Jeep Gladiator JT. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

I have a front camera but I don’t have the big pile of wires/ bracket 2023 gladiator rubicon Do I need to relocate anything .
