A few months ago there was a link that showed the measurments and such for making a mount for the wheel well.

I did a search and could not find it anyone have a link to it? Its a 10lb bottle btw.

Thanks

Looks good i might try it that way.

The mount i was refering to was something someone had fabed up using some metal plates. It mounted to the spare tire bracket and then mounted across to the other side.

thanks for the help so far :)

Found a link to one of the brackets. You can see it in the 1st and 2nd pics.

Now a few weeks ago someone had some measurements and how to make this. Looks simple just like to get it right and the diagram would make it a lot easier.

Kirschman what part of KY you from?

thanks

hows it going Travis, I'm from Bardstown. Usually race at ohio valley(louisville) or Hardinsburg. I mounted the bottle directly to the wheel well. Put the tall bracket on bottom and the short one on top, exactly oppisite of how its supposed to be. I drain every bottle, so it gives me a good angle. Make sure u get the siphon tube in the right spot.
