So I have the ARB dual compressor suitcase with tank.

I am wondering what you guys think about mounting this fabtech rack and then bolting the suitcase down inside the fabtech rack.

would it be hard or not very clean to run power to this rack for the compressor?

Thoughts? Ideas?

I mounted mine to the back. Its a bit of a pain to drill holes and then tighten them down, had to pull the whole compressor out of the case. I like that its all enclosed out of the elements. Power wise, i ran the power cable all the way to the back and put the other end of the plug on it and it stays on a little hook till i need to use it. Then open it and plug it in. It works for me. However it is bulkier than just the compressor mounted somewhere but i like it.
