What mounts did you use for ARB compressor?

I'm ready to mount my ARB compressor and am having difficulty finding a bracket to attach it. I moved my cruise control toward the air filter so I have space. I'm considering using L-brackets but not sure that will be sturdy enough. If you could let me know what you used, that'd be great.

Thanks,
Phil

I bolted it using the ARB hardware to the inner fender.

Thanks for the pix and ideas. Bolting it straight to the fender might work if I can squeeze it in. I'll probably have to shim one side because of the curve of the fender.

Put it in the utility compartment in the very back of the truck (pass side). I've got plans to move mine there soon. I had it installed a while back and they stuck it on the inside of the frame near the front and I don't like it there.

Can you enlarge a 96-98 style rear compartment to a 99+ style? I'd like to keep some storage utility in the space, too.

The only place I could squeeze my compressor in was to build a mount.
