APEX CRS Universal Mounting Bracket for Air System Installs
The APEX DESIGN USA Compact Reel System (CRS) Universal Mounting Bracket is a compressor accessory mount for customers fitting an APEX CRS into an off-road, overlanding or performance vehicle air setup. It is designed to support the Compact Reel System rather than replace the reel itself, giving installers a dedicated mounting option for a cleaner CRS installation.
If you are building a tyre inflation and deflation system, the mounting point matters. A reel system that is awkward to position can be harder to access on trips, especially when you need air quickly after trail driving, towing or touring. This bracket helps create a practical mounting solution for the CRS where your vehicle build has suitable space and support.
What This CRS Mounting Bracket Helps Solve
Many custom air systems are built around available space rather than a factory mounting point. The CRS Universal Mounting Bracket gives APEX CRS owners a universal mounting option for a variety of applications, helping avoid improvised installations when adding portable or onboard air equipment.
It is especially useful when you already run, or plan to run, the APEX DESIGN USA Compact Reel System (CRS) and need the bracket that is sold separately from the reel system.
Who This Compressor Accessory Mount Is For
Choose this bracket if your build is centred on organised, accessible air equipment rather than loose hose storage or temporary positioning.
- CRS owners who need the separate universal mounting bracket.
- Off-road and overlanding drivers setting up tyre inflation equipment.
- Performance or 4x4 vehicle owners building a neat compressor accessory layout.
- Custom installers who need a universal APEX CRS mounting solution.
- Ford Raptor air-system builds where the installer has checked mounting space and clearances.
Compatibility and Fitment Notes
This APEX DESIGN USA bracket is intended for the APEX Compact Reel System (CRS). Vehicle fitment is universal, so it is not a vehicle-specific bolt-on kit for a single make, model or trim. The final mounting location, access and any vehicle-side fixing method need to be checked against your individual build.
The CRS reel system itself is not included with the bracket. If you are starting from scratch, order the CRS separately and then use this bracket as part of the installation plan.

Complete the APEX Air System
For a CRS install, the bracket is only one part of the air-system layout. Depending on your chosen hose route and connection style, you may also want to compare the APEX DESIGN USA Banjo Fitting for CRS to 3/8 inch braided air hose and the APEX DESIGN USA Compact Quick Coupler to APEX Male Swivel. These related APEX air components help shoppers plan the bracket, reel and connection points together rather than buying parts in isolation.
Before Ordering
- Confirm that you are mounting an APEX Compact Reel System, not a different hose reel.
- Check the intended location for space, access and suitable support.
- Plan any vehicle-side fixings or customisation before installation.
- Do not rely on a Ford Raptor tag as proof of a vehicle-specific kit; treat this as a universal CRS bracket.
- Contact Hoonies Adrenaline if you need help matching CRS accessories for your air setup.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the APEX Compact Reel System included?
No. The CRS reel system is sold separately. This product is the universal mounting bracket for the APEX CRS.
Is this bracket vehicle-specific?
No. The confirmed fitment is universal, so the installer must check the chosen mounting location and vehicle-side fixing method.
Can I use it on a Ford Raptor build?
It can be considered for a Ford Raptor air-system build, but it is still a universal bracket rather than a confirmed model-specific fitting kit.
Will it fit non-APEX reel systems?
Compatibility is confirmed for the APEX Compact Reel System only. Other reel systems are not confirmed.
Are dimensions or materials available?
No bracket-specific dimensions or materials are confirmed, so check your installation space carefully before ordering.
