Adding a 12 volt power outlet

Plywood is a sensible solution for the floor. I went with the AAL floor because I have the compressor mounted below it and needed air circulation — otherwise I would have preferred plywood.
It took a bit of work but that piece turned out well and fits perfectly. I also made copies of goose gear rear seat 60/40 delete.

The JL 392 has a much smaller storage area under the rear floor as much of the muffler is up there. The air compressor is under the passenger seat.

You got the 392!! Wow. Don’t think I could have resisted that when I bought mine, but the diesel and 392 weren’t available yet. Probably just as well… but they sure are cool.

How loud is the ARB compressor when running?
 

It's a stupid fun machine. I let myself make a once in a lifetime financial misguided decision. Love it!


In my case irrelevant. It's not like it runs when I'm driving or even sitting in the vehicle.
Was thinking about getting one for my truck, but may want to install it outside of the cab as it would also run my rear air bags I'm going to install. So was curious how loud it was compared to other compressors.

Where? I do too but with the diesel there is not much room under the hood.

Well there are spots under the bed of the truck, and a few smaller spaces in the engine compartment of the 6.2l gas truck. Unsure of the diesel truck however. Also wasn't sure if the price of the ARB compressor was worth it as far as sound, vibration, and cfm compared to other brands.

I have air bags in the Jeep and I don't even have the compressor plumbed for them because they so rarely need air adjustment. I guess it would be different if you frequently haul heavy loads and change the pressure of the bags.

I bought the twin ARB because of it’s inflation speed, which makes a big difference on 37” tires, and the reputation for durability. I didn’t even consider vibration or how loud it might be. They definitely vibrate, and they generate a lot of heat.
 

I looked at the Dometic fridges, but couldn't get past the cost. I went with a BougeRV fridge/freezer. Has a battery for when no power and will run on 12 volt or 120 AC.
I went with BougeRV also.
Actually used it in the truck bed during that 115*F heat wave here in Nevada. Used it for about 8 hours, connected to a battery box I have in the bed. I was shocked it worked well and still kept temps below 30F with it being opened frequently. (Temp was set to 0 F and its about 2 years old now)
