I installed an ARB air compressor under my hood and have been very pleased. I didn't want to have to pop the hood when I aired up, though, so I came up with this easy mod that provides an air outlet on my front bumper. Now I can plug my air hose into the outlet, switch on the compressor using the switch in my cab, and air up easily. The ARB air hose easily reaches all four tires from this location. I thought this might give others some ideas on how to do something similar. I've had this setup on my truck for about seven years, and it works great.
All you need are a few air fittings, some pipe thread tape, some hose clamps, and a few feet of appropriately-sized air hose to run air from your compressor to the new air outlet. I bought all of this stuff at Ace Hardware for about 20 bucks, including the brass elbow fitting that's on the front bumper that the new outlet screws into (look in your store's plumbing section for the elbow). Secure the hose with zip ties to keep it from moving around and rubbing on the body. It's an easy and inexpensive mod. I added stainless steel braiding around the air hose, but that's not absolutely necessary, and can be hard to find.
