    Just looking over the pics of how everyone has mounted these and in wondering how those of you who are solely using the abs bracket as the mount are finding it after a few hundred kms?

    I've had a look today and the bracket doesn't look overly stable to have another 0.5-1kg of weight hanging off the end of it.

    Cheers

    Hey mate did you just drill into the fire wall or rivet it or something? I'm worried I'll hit something on the other side if drilled.
    Also there is 2 screws there already (photo below) I wonder if they hold anything on the other side. Was gonna utilize them.

    Yea if you look at my pics I used the existing bolt hole for the diff lock solenoid , on your photo it's a bit down and to the right where that relay thingy is
    The bracket that's used for solenoid is shaped perfect to mount flat bar on top of and once bolted up it all runs parallel to firewall so it doesn't push it out of shape once tightened up

    All done and installed, thanks for the inspiration battle ready. Bit of stuffing around to get the pipe onto the intake hose but got there in the end. If anything looks out of place can someone please let me know (cable ties create enough tension to hold the hoses off other hoses).
