Also, got a photo of the oil catch can you're using and who sells them?
Sorry I thought I'd taken a picture of it. I'll take one today. This is the one I bought ADD W1.com ADD W1™ Official Site | High-Performance Auto Parts It was smaller than some of the other ones I'd looked at & with the dipstick you didn't have to pull the can to see how much oil is there.
Here are some pictures.

It's a York compressor that is made by Off Road Only specifically for use as air compressor. You can use a York off a car's A/C system but it needs to be modified to not blow a ton of oil into your OBA system.
The brackets were made by Kilby Air but they aren't in business anymore and only made a limited number of the brackets. The company that bought Kilby is CU Off-Road and they might still have the plans for the brackets. C U Off Road - Home If not you could make your own bracket with a little work.

The kit came with the alternator pulley but I don't think it came with the belt. But it wasn't an issue to measure it find a blet that fit. You can get the pulley from CU Off-Road but will have to build your own bracket.
Started working on the Jeep today and had a few hiccups along the way. I'd cut 2 of the O-rings when installing the fuel rail so I had a mess.
At what fuel costs now days this wasn't what I wanted to see.
Used the MPVI2 and made a copy of the PCM to send to Ryan @ FRP.
Still have the check engine light due to the transmission but have my fingers crossed that once I can run it long enough to run the transmission thru the gears so I can check fluid levels as that might be the issue.
Got my FRP sticker installed on my garage refrigerator.
I've got a check valve that I have been thinking about installing to see if it'll help with cold starts. But here it is after sitting for about an hour.
