Custom mount for Waterport / Front Runner
I made a custom mount today for my Waterport. I wanted the Waterport on the back o the rack. The Waterport has a new mount for racks, but it would not work the way it comes on the last beam, as it expects to clamp on both sides of the beam. I used some 1" aluminum and made it so it attaches to two beams for strength.

Looks better then the cam-lock straps I use, but costs about $83 more. Looks like the price of the tanks went up, although maybe I'm remembering wrong...

I went with mounting it on the side long-wise for reduced air drag (I don't run an RTT). Just drilled 4 holes.

This is a great idea, I didn't think about using a pair of quick fist, thanks!
