electric compressor for OBA

[LGR]

I'm looking to put an electric compressor in my XJ with onboard air. I can't figure out how to stuff a belt driven one in there without losing my AC(a must have!)

Pros and Cons on electric compressors?

I was looking at the VIAIR450C. Anyone have it and run it for onboard air? I don't plan on running on using the air all the time, just when i need to, so it won't be really heavily used.

I think the kilby website lists some mounting brackets for a York compressor made to fit with ac depending on your year of vehicle. Check them out. It might be a much cheaper way to go if you can fit one.

Yeah, i really don't want to get that involved, That write up looks like too much for me to handle.

Kilby doesn't have a bracket for an 00' XJ.
