Mount an ARB CKMA12 or CKSA12 compressor securely in your Jeep JL, JLU, or JT with this firewall-mounted steel bracket and heat shield.

Finding a clean location for an onboard air compressor can be a challenge on a Jeep JL or Jeep JT. Many mounting locations take up valuable cargo space, interfere with other accessories, or leave the compressor exposed to trail debris and engine bay clutter.

The Motobilt ARB Air Locker Compressor Mount provides a secure mounting solution for ARB CKMA12 and CKSA12 air compressors by utilizing factory threaded studs located on the driver side firewall below the brake booster. This location keeps the compressor tucked away while maintaining easy access to air fittings and electrical connections. The mount positions the compressor behind the inner fender area, helping create a clean and organized engine bay layout.

Built from steel and designed around real-world Jeep builds, this mount securely supports the compressor while minimizing vibration and movement. An included aluminum heat shield helps deflect heat from the exhaust header, improving the operating environment for the compressor. Integrated zip tie slots allow builders to route wiring and air lines cleanly for a professional installation.

Whether you're adding onboard air for ARB Air Lockers, tire inflation, or general trail use, this mount provides a practical solution that integrates cleanly into the Jeep JL, Jeep JLU, and Jeep JT platform. Designed by builders who understand vehicle packaging and serviceability, this mount keeps your compressor secure without sacrificing valuable space elsewhere on the vehicle.
