These are two air cooled 50% air cooled compressors. If ARB wants to call the Twin 100% in marketing materials and you want to believe that then go ahead.

Did you intentionally pick a PDF that only included their 50% duty cycle compressor or was that an accident? Their CKMTA12 has a 100% duty cycle.

great job, how did you mount it? and have you experienced any problems?

After seeing the air compressor install behind the drivers side taillight I had to try it with my harbor freight air compressor! Good news, the Pittsburgh air compressor does fit.

i don’t completely remember anymore. It was a bolt that I ran through either an existing hole in the base plate or a new hole in the base plate I drilled attached to an oversized washer to catch the body panel behind the taillight.
I have had no issues with this. I still run it this way I use it on occasion and typically can take my 35s from 18psi to 30 on all 4 before it overheats. It also would overheat not installed due to being a low cost harbor freight compressor.
