Installation Steps

1

The compressor kit is designed to be installed under the rear passenger side seat. Pull the lower seat cushions forward. Identify panel 1 and panel 2 as shown above.


2

Use a T25 Torx bit to remove the two upper screws and the single front center screw holding panel 1. Remove the flooring then use a 10mm socket/wrench to remove the two nuts holding panel 1 to the floor board. Completely remove panel 1.


3

Use a T50 Torx bit to remove the two rear bolts holding Panel 2. Due to the seat frame crossbar, the removal of these two bolts will require a mini ratchet driver and bit.

Detach the two wire harness clips at the rear center of Panel 2 and then remove the panel from under the seat frame as shown above.


4

Use a T40 Torx bit to remove the door sill anchor then pull the door weather stripping off of the lower half of the door opening. Pull up on the lower door sill molding and remove.

4a. Use a 10mm socket/wrench to remove the side panel bolt.


5

Use a T45 Torx bit to remove the two upper tie down anchors of the rear passenger side wheel well panel. Remove the three lower plugs and then use a 10mm socket/wrench to remove the three lower nuts.


6

Pull straight back on the upper part of the wheel well panel (1) and then pull straight back on the lower part (2). Then carefully pull on the front part of the wheel well panel (3) that goes behind the side of the seat back. Completely remove wheel well panel.


7

Locate the four factory 8mm studs under the passenger seat. Use a 19mm socket/wrench to install the four supplied compressor stands onto the studs. Torque to 20 ft lbs. Install the 2 supplied M8x1.25 studs onto the two top compressor stands. Leave approx. 1/2” of stud protruding from compressor stands. Use Blue Loctite on all mounting hardware.


8

Install the compressor assembly onto the compressor stands starting with the top studs. Install the two supplied M8x1.25 flange nuts to the top studs. Hand Tighten Only Apply Blue Loctite to all mounting hardware.


9

Use a 4mm allen wrench to loosen the two motor mount screws then rotate the compressor counter-clockwise. This will allow for easy access to lower mounting bolts.


10

Install the two supplied M8x1.25x15mm flange bolts. Torque to 20 ft lbs. Rotate the compressor back to original position and tighten the motor mount screws. Torque to 2.2 ft lbs. Torque the top two compressor plate M8 flange nuts to 20 ft lbs. Apply Blue Loctite to all mounting hardware.


11

Locate the fuse box and remove the cover.


12

Use a 13mm socket/wrench to remove the driver side cable nut. Install the compressor 12V power cable to stud. Re-install nut. Torque to 18 ft lbs.


13

Use a 10mm wrench/socket to remove the ground cable nut. Install the compressor ground cable. Re-install nut. Torque to 6 ft lbs.


14

The compressor 12V key hot wire is pre-wired with a 10 amp mini fuse. Route the 12V key hot wire under the seat base panels from the compressor to the factory fuse box as shown. Use the supplied zip ties to securely fasten the wire. Avoid the parking brake cables. Locate the empty fuse slot as shown above.


15

Insert the fuse into the slot as shown. For the circuit to be protected, the fuse MUST be installed as shown.
