I'm planning out a York OBA setup and was wondering if the '97-'99 non-a/c Kilby bracket will allow for the compressor to mount horizontally and clear the stock air box. If not, is there enough room for it to mount vertically. The description off the C U Off Road site is posted below. They don't mention having to move the air box like they do on every other bracket kit.

I can't help you on a 4.0 as I had one on my 2.5 4 cyl but I didn't have a stock air box either.
 
The kit I installed on my '03 4.0L looks similar to the, KE-2000-K w/AC. 2000-2006.
Horizontal mount, Alternator relocation bracket but, did not buy the air tank.
And the stock air box was remove prior to my ownership in Feb. 2004.
OBA since 2005.

Edit, the dates are a blur that long ago.
And I think I paid about half their sale price.
