ARB/TJM air compressor & fuel filter bracket for 120/150

[rackxp]

Also, the Combo bracket will now suit the:

• TJM, and both ARB CKMA12 and CKMP12 compressors
• Racor 230 and Stanadyne FM100 fuel filters

The TJM and ARB CKMP12 (portable) compressor will require a custom bracket.
The Stanadyne FM100 will also require a custom bracket (orange in the pics below)

Hey amts, i have a CKMP12 and would like to fit this into my 150. How do i go about ordering the custom bracket?

Well after having this bracket sitting in the shed for over 2 years found it necessary to fit it over the weekend. Prior to buying AMTS's bracket I had fabricated a bracket to hold the Racor Filter using the same 2 holes on the front fender that AMTS's bracket uses. Was changing the filter on the weekend prior to a trip to El Questro this weekend and found the guard had cracked and my bracket was close to coming free with the encapsulated nuts pulling through thin metal of the fender. Time to fit AMTS's bracket. As the original nuts were now broken free of the inner front fender I had to remove part of the plastic in the wheel arch so I could get into the area of the inner guard where the Toyota nuts had decided to part ways from the guard. At first we thought the guard was double skinned in the area but we able get our hands up there where the holes were with a bit of effort. Fabricated a piece of aluminium plate that we could fit up in the space allowed in the inner guard and was able to get the plate, bolts and washers in the inner guard and bolts through the holes left from the nuts that had pulled through. Then fitted AMTS's bracket to the 2 bolts we got through as well as the 2 bolts in the wheel arch area. All good and as solid as a rock now. Filter fitted to AMTS's bracket and will fit compressor down the track when existing one throws in the towel.
Just like to say this is a great product and thanks to AMTS's for producing it even though it did take a bit longer to fit than normal due to my Toyota Nuts pulling out from the inner guard.

Only the MkII is currently produced due to low demand for the MkI.
The MkII fits the 2016 2.8L in a similar way to the other facelift 150, in that the relay box on the firewall needs to be removed and relocated.

Thanks amts.

Sorry if this is a silly question, but will either of the MKI or MKII brackets fit a 2016 2.8l TD Auto?

He said he did that so I don't know what he's on about then
Thanks heaps Amts... much better than lugging around the Bushranger Max Air Pro all the time!!

OK noted. The offset plate should be attached to the factory fuel filter first, then attach the assembly to the fuel filter bracket.

Oh, good point... I'll have a look into that one.

The only thing my mechanic wished for was threaded holes in the inner holes of the offset plate to avoid having to have kid/tiny hands to get the bolt up and in.
Otherwise he said it fitted perfectly.

Looks very neat. One thing to note is the orientation of the relay. I once had my spotties' relay horizontal. It soon stopped working due to moisture entering from the bottom of the relay. So consider moving it somewhere else where it can be in the vertical orientation. I drilled the mounting hole out to 8mm and mounted it on one of the bolts holding the compressor bkt to the guard.

Well, it's finally installed thanks to my mechanic

Sorry Amts... last Q, I think...

Is the Racor 230R still the one that fits?

Yes, correct.

[Snaga]

That will fit the Racor only.

Sweet, thanks amts

I'll need a pic of the bracket to be sure. Racor 230R will definitely fit. The FM100 requires an additional bkt on the original MK2 but will now fit without an additional bkt on the revised version.
