Looking to mount an ARB compressor on your Subaru Outback Wilderness? Well, once you're done searching high and low for a practical place, come back and check out the brand new Outback Wilderness ARB Compact Air Compressor Mount from CATuned Off-road!
This modular design allows you to safely and securely tuck your ARB single compressor away inside the engine bay of your Outback Wilderness. The easy access makes airing up after a long day on the trail simple with a quick pop of your hood.
The complete system comes with a pre-installed switch on the compressor mount keeping all the vital components of your ARB air compressor and switches out of the elements and free of any direct heating from the engine.
Adding the ARB compressor mount to your Outback Wilderness is a breeze using the factory mounting locations where your shock towers come through the body. Making this compressor mount easy to reach when it's time to hit the pavement.
The install was really simple, except for hooking up the switch. You need to use the “isolation switch” wires and not “switch 1” as suggested.
The wiring harness is a confusing mess, but otherwise its a very functional piece of kit. If you buy it make sure you hook the switch upto the isolation plugs instead of switch one/two.
Great set, easy to install and works just as it should. I think I received the incorrect air fitting, as I didn’t get the blue w/red release and elbow. But it still fits without hitting the hood. Would recommend.
Sliders are top quality, and install was fairly simple. I would highly recommend purchasing a quality rivet nut tool though. The tool that comes in the kit became damaged during install and caused one of the rivet nuts to spin and the tool got stuck, and I (thankfully) was able to use vice grips to get enough purchase on the top of the nut to get the tool removed. Also, when I purchased an actual tool, it sped up the install time by a factor of about 3.
Aside from that one hiccup with the included tool, everything was great! Bolts all lined up with a little love from some vice grips. I think they are the best looking Subaru sliders on the market , and they are super solid. I would purchase these again in a heartbeat.
Additionally, Adventure Rig Shop was very prompt in replying to all my questions and emails leading up to this purchase. Quality customer service. Highly recommended!
Lonseal Lonridge is the industry standard for quality and aesthetics. I got a great deal on the pre-cut floor for my Sprinter 170 at Adventure Rig Shop. Highly recommend
This is a solid built product but the small differences between the 5th gen outback and the 6th gen is just enough that it won't fit the 5th gen Outback. I modified a few parts to have a better fitment but at the end of the day it wasn't going to work out. Was thoroughly excited to have a practical storage shelf in my rig, but thats ok. The team at Adventure Rig were very helpful in delaing with this issue and helped issue a refund and would hope they can make a storage shelf for the 5th Gen Outback or more items for the 5th Gen.
Quite happy with the bar. Solid and well built, and it literally took me ten minutes to install.
Perfectly formed for the Outback. Highly recommended.
Ordered this along with my brush-bar. Decent quality except one part was mal-formed when created (the spot for the nut capture was dented in prior to powder-coating). I emailed them to ask for a replacement. They said sure. I've emailed them now a bunch of times, never got my replacement. So my lights are sitting in a damn box. And I'll be damned if I send them more money for another potentially useless bracket.
