Found something under passenger seat

I found something under my passenger seat too. Anyone know what it is or what it does?

Something that kids kick, when riding in your backseat???

That compressor's to fill the ballast tanks* with air if your Wrangler goes beyond its rated depth, right?



Seriously, if you don't have rear passengers, that is dead space. Nice application for otherwise unused space. It looks like you used the seat mount bolts to mount the compressor's bracket. Great idea! It just occurred to me that IF you ever might have rear seat passengers, you could install some sort of sheet metal guard/foot rest/whatever to protect the compressor.

I'm not familiar with the ARB compressor. (I bought a VIAIR 300P compressor in a bag, still unused.) Are air hose fittings behind what look like they might be protective caps, the round ones with "ARB" imprinted? If so, as an alternative maybe you could plumb a fixed air line to some under-the-hood location for attaching a tire filling hose? Hmmm.

Mr. Thunder, I like what you did!

*-We seem to have numerous engineers/technically-minded people on this forum with a lot of creative energy in Jeep products. Some of them are employed in that market, others are obviously bored with their day jobs and we get the happy results!

While thinking about my joking about ballast tanks above, I wondered about vehicular water wings. Ok, to remove the smirks, let's call them supplemental flotation chambers. There have been some videos posted with Wranglers going ever so slightly too deep during a crossing, it loses wheel traction, and the vehicle floats away before sinking. Supplemental preventative flotation chambers and/or emergency inflatable flotation might save vehicles from going under. Obviously this would be needed only by people crossing deep water, and likely ropes fore and aft to help the crossing. Wouldn't be cheap, either, so would be special needs product.

Maybe somebody will look at my nutty idea and come up with a practical corollary.

Someone got ID'd for beer, then ripped the band off and chucked it under the seat.

Just run an air line to your intake and BOOM! instant supercharger.

Not in my Jeep, but I recently bought a new, used Mercedes CLS, and I found a razor blade under the driver seat!

I wonder what the previous owner was doing??

“...Must have been a Friday Evening when they built yours.”

According to my door sticker, mine was actually completed on a Friday, 8pm. But my fit/finish has been fine, no “Friday” issues that I know of. So I get a laugh out of it when someone makes the Friday joke because I really have one!

Cool. I’ll be sure to drop it in the mail. No need for your address, I know where you live.

Ain’t that the truth.
