Whats going on guys? I just want to know how everybody is mounting their valves to the side of their framerails. Ive made brakets for my parkers before, but i dont want to go through all the trouble of making 8 more for my ascos. So how is everyone doing it(quick and simple)?

x2. 4 one or 1 1/4" conduit straps (available at any hardware store for about $.75 apiece), 8 self tapping screws and you're golden. I had my valves mounted like this for 3 years and never had any problems. Of course, it was only on the road for 4 months of that, lol. Oh, that was just the front valves, so double it if you're putting them all on the rails. But quick and easy, no problems.

just pick up the valve brackets, in the long run, they look better and work better

yea i got some conduit straps for now, but ill probably make or order up some brackets later. I just need to get my truck up and running as soon as possible, so the conduit straps will do for now($.45 at fastenal).
