Vizsla Fire Extinguisher Mount

Paid! Thanks David

 

Don't be bashful, you have awesomeness in your truck!

 

Paid! Thx homie!

 

Money sent sir. Thanks

 

Paid. Thank you

 

Paid. Thank you sir!

 

You guys are not going to be disappointed.

Fit is great, clasps are ideal for easy release, and unless you're reaching for it nothing is noticeable.

The best part about it is the empty beer cans piling uo don't get stuck under your seat!!

JK. I really don't even drink

 

So this is why I like this site, all but one of you has paid(due to PayPal issues), and honestly in doing something like this you would see around 20%+ no response. I'm shocked and very proud to be a member here.
Kudos members and thanks again!

 

SomethING smells kinda fishy....

You take all of their money, you copy some pics of "your new house" in the desert, and then you are moving from CO....

Where are you really off to and when can we expect you to cancel your forum account???

 

Aww, love you too Snookums, but don't hate. I think you gave me your digits?, fun starts tomorrow...

 

paid

 

Paid finally but I have a very good excuse for being the last one - lifting my truck all day yesterday!

 

Everyone that paid has shipped with the exception of @osidepunker (sent you a message). I did not package instructions with them, I will post detailed instructions here tomorrow. Thanks again everyone!

 

Looking good! Can't wait to get mine.

 

Couple pics of the 2.5 lb extinguisher installed.

 

I have been carrying mine in the under seat storage. It is gonna be nice to have it where I can actually get to it if ever needed.

 

Directions

You will need:

This is the fire extinguisher it is designed for, it comes packaged under different names(auto/marine, marine, kitchen, etc.) and comes in silver or white.

Threadlocker
1/2" open end wrench

Remove the 2 nuts and 2 seat clamp tabs, do not mix up the seat clamp tabs(right and left side).
Carefully apply threadlocker on the threads. Take the extinguisher mount, hold it midway up the seat brackets, reinstall the seat clamp tabs and nuts, loosely tighten. Wipe any excess threadlocker off, and let the mount rest low on the seat brackets.

The mount wants to sit as low as possible on the seat bracket. In the picture you can see where the mount sits on the seat bracket, mine is 2 1/4" below the bottom of the seat track.

Center bracket side to side.


Snug up both the 1/2" nuts on the seat clamp tabs equally. It will touch or almost touch the carpet.

Test fit the extinguisher, this seems to provide the best clearance.

Newer versions of this fire extinguisher have a notch around the gauge that loosely fits the bracket. This has worked fine on several I tried.

Carefully while watching, move seat all the way forward and back, adjust fire extinguisher in the mount if needed. When satisfied with the fit, tighten both sides while alternating between sides. Use an open end wrench, the passenger side nut is a little tough to get at. Check mount nuts for tight after 200 miles.

So the one we ordered will fit both sizes?

 

No, only fits the small 2lb bottle. The big one is a one off for another member that did not fit his bottle, now it's mine. It is different and more $ to make. The fit of the small extinguisher is the best choice for most, and if you need more I would carry 2, small in cab, and a big(bigger than 2.5lb.) in the bed.

 

I just unpacked a box of QUALITY! Really nice precision cut parts, top notch fastners and a professional finish and even the bubble wrap and packing were really good! I know a lot of money and time went into making these. Thanks a lot for doing this for us Vizsla!

 

These look great. Are there anymore available?

 

mine came as well. Thanks on the list of things to do

 

I have had fitment issues with gen 2 trucks. I refunded the gen 2 guys money, let me know if I missed anyone by email at dbakert89@yahoo.com. Not worth shipping, find a gen 3 friend or something. Sorry for any inconvenience.

 

Thanks @Vizsla perfect fit!!

 

I haven't received mine yet, but whats the issue? Is the seat adjustment bar in the way?

 

You have somewhere else in mind to mount it?

 

How can I jump in on the next run? Or scoop one up that didn't fit a Gen 2?
