u know steve, ive got some black spray paint in ze garage....maybe I should take it off and paint it, and clean up the sides and get some more pics. Its something like $10 for the bracket, and another $8 for the various screws, nuts, and washers. so $25+shipping seems fair to me...$30 if its painted.
@ Deftones/camarokiller, its not a complicated piece...its not supposed to be. thats why it would be very cheap. I just couldnt find any brackets to mount my tank, so I made my own, and want to save some people some trouble making their own as well. You know how lazy people get....i guarantee if someone sold a mounting bracket, I would have bought it...lol

this is just a solution for those out there who don't have the means or don't want to even bother having the means of mounting their option b tank.
You sir FAIL
A couple power tools....whats your point? Again, I'm not claiming it makes an engineer to make this...im just trying to save some people the trouble of doing it... I understand your not hating, but it's still something I made, and its something that would be useful to a lot of people, as simple as it is.
Hell, look at Hatrickstu's reservoir...its the same kind of pepboys parts that he just put together, but it saves a lot of people from having to do it themselves and they buy it.
EDIT: another good point....a lot of people dont even have these power tools. They're fairly common, but I didnt have them until last week...spent $50 on a corded high power drill, $20 on the various bits and attachments, and $30 on a nice dremel. Some people just don't have these things, and wont use them enough to justify buiying them

Wouldn't a how to do it be much better? With how to measure it and what not? I mean if someone is too lazy to do that, should they even be on this site? I'm really not trying to hate here, I just don't see the point of paying someone to cut something I can do myself and have it done MUCH faster.
That is why I said what I said, and Flint, don't even think about trying to pwn me because it's not possible..
Steven Flit and I mounted our OPT B tanks the other day, and we made our own brackets to hold them in place. They look pretty nice and are definitely sturdy. I was just wondering if this is something I can sell to you guys to help out the forum. They'd be very cheap (price of materials + $10-15 for labor), and be a direct fitment for everyone. Anyone interested? I'll get pics as soon as I can.

Most would rather have the instant gratification of an item made specifically for them. Not everyone wants to fabricate.

^^ you cant deny that most people on this forum are lazy enough (myself included) to just pay an extra $10 for something already made than to take the time to figure it out themselves
Who makes their own end plates? who buys them?
Who makes their own Cobra mounts? who buys BWoody's? (shut up steve)
See what I'm saying?

In all seriousness it would be a good idea for those too lazy to do it themselves. Just haven't been on here a while and wanted some entertainment

Im unsure about a Tq damper. It fits fine on the stock mount, and it also fits fine on Steve's solid motor mount (not sure which company), but Im not sure with the ingalls. Can someone grab me a coupple close-ups? I should be able to tell that way.
