Anyone have any pics/write ups for mounting a bottle in the spare tire well using a custom/fabricated mounting plate for the bottle brackets? I don't want to bolt through the wheel well.

TIA,
Kyle

Country Boy, can you give me the measurements on that piece of wood, I want to have one made identical to that...I was going to just take a piece of plywood and lay it in there and then just drill, but I would rather have the exact measurements..

Thanks,
Bos

 

Thanks for the pics!

 

To be honest with ya, There is no specific measurements. (no straight edges) Just take a piece of cardboard and start cutting and trimming. Thats all I did. It took a few, but worth it.

 

not a bad idea...thanks.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Hey guys, I took a few hours last night and built a custom mounting plate for the bottle. I'll post pics on my site tonight and post the links back here.

Sounds good... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

 

OK, here's what I've got so far. Just a few pics and I don't have any that actually show the bottle b/c I'm waiting on my new bottle to come in. I'm planning on making a diagram that shows the exact dimesions of the plate, so let me know if you're intersted on getting a copy.

I'm not sure if this will fit in the Camaro well or not. I need to get someone down here to try it out for me.

Anyways, here's the link. Click on the "Nitrous Bottle Mount" link on my main page.

I am going to have to put something together this week(end) to mount the bottle in there..

Thanks,
Bos

 

I'll see if I can get you some measurements in the next day or two.

OK, the diagram with measurements is up on my site. My new bottle just came in so I might be able to post a few pics soon with the bottle actually mounted on the plate.

Good luck. All I used to make it was a tape measure, straight-edge and jigsaw. If you didn't get the link to my site, here it is again:

Is that meant for a 10lb bottle or a 15lb bottle?

Thanks for the measure ments too.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

 

10lb...
