So after speaking with Ford Parts and then ARB, I've found that the ARB portable single compressor tool box ( https://accessories.ford.com/products/arb-ford-performance-portable-air-compressor-kit ) is 1) Bronco Bucks (Ford Rewards points) redeemable for $405 + tax and 2) can be mounted like the on board one that's direct from ARB with addition of bracket (lost part number and cost), manifold that allows for separate locker and tire inflation ports PN 171503 $80.

For a locker of course it needs the locker itself and a wiring harness PN 180409 that is $30.

Hope this helps someone.

ARB doesn't make a compressor mount for the bronco... WE do though (the KR Off-Road mount)

The compressor mount is here: https://www.4x4truckleds.com/kr-off-road-arb-compressor-engine-bay-mount-for-2021-ford-bronco/

You'd have to remove the compressor from the portable case it comes in from Ford/ARB. But a twin compressor is a twin compressor at the end of the day.

The manifold is here, but you only need this if you have lockers and/or plan to have additional air ports for multiple things:

I've got the ARB single compressor in a toolbox from Ford - do I need anything other than your bracket to mount it? To you knowledge are there any differences in the compressor mounting?

Il'l look on Monday when Im back at the store. The Single and Twin compressors that come with the carrying box (portable kits) have the harness and switches pre-installed. I want to see if they left the FULL length of harness or cut it down to size. If they left the full length, then you can re-use it all. If they cut it down to size you may need to extend it.

You'll need to cut off the alligator clamps and put ring terminals on them to get power from your Bronco. And instead of the switch, you will use an upfitter wire to trigger it on/off (you CAN re-use the switch if you get our switch bracket kit also: https://www.4x4truckleds.com/kr-off...-coupler-switch-bracket-for-2021-ford-bronco/)

Otherwise you can unbolt the compressor from the box and bolt it to our mount.

Clever plug, @4x4TruckLEDs.com. Yes I have been told the same from ARB. It just needs a mount and to be permanently wired of course. To add a front locker or another port you need the $80ish manifold.

I might fab a bracket but a purpose built one might be a better idea.
