Overview
The Rubicon Express ARB air line kit, part number RE1592, is a 12-foot stainless steel air line for connecting an air locker to its original ARB fittings. Rubicon Express says ordinary plastic air lines can melt or break, and offers stainless steel line as the alternative.
The kit includes the parts needed to connect to the original fittings, and the installation suits anyone comfortable working with air lines. Confirm the locker has its original ARB fittings before ordering.
- Stainless steel line, 12 feet long
- Stainless construction in place of plastic air line
- Connects to original ARB fittings
- Includes the parts needed for the connection
Routing the air line
A 12-foot run is long enough for many routes but should be measured before cutting, since the line needs slack to flex with the axle without pulling on the fittings. Route it away from exhaust, sharp edges and moving suspension parts, and secure it with clips so it does not sag into mud or rocks.
Stainless line resists heat and abrasion better than plastic, but the fittings remain the weak point. Seal each connection, check for leaks with the system pressurized, and re-check after the first few trail trips. Keep the compressor and tank plumbing clean so debris does not reach the locker.
- Measure the route with slack before cutting
- Keep the line clear of exhaust and moving parts
- Check every fitting for leaks under pressure
