Does anyone know of anyone that can fab this up?

Ok, jack off. Hee hee! I mean, thread jacking off. I didn't mean to stir up a big 'ol deal with Kilby, I was just unaware of that deal.

I'm looking to do my project in 1/8" to 3/16" steel as with the weight of the compressor on a cantilever, there will be vibrational stress at the joint (Welded or bent). It will also be used to hold the spare in place rather than the little circle of steel that is currently used. I don't want to use 45deg straps to hold the cantilever up as the bracket would have to be wider than the compressor. Although very pretty if it were made of brass, a simple steel bracket will suffice.

This is a descrete job so all the hoses will be hidden as well as the wiring and switch. The plastic spare cover will be back in place.

Thank you for all the suggestions and Riff, if you will convey my apologies to Kilby, I'd appreciate it.

This whole mess about Kilby was my fault as I really was referring to Tim Parker from SBC and got cornfused. I was wondering if he would be able to fab something up since he had made the best window brackets.

Oh, I didn't realize you were trying to maintain the use of a spare holder. Still, the offer stands. I drafted up a quick example of what I could do to meet your needs...

It might be a good idea to affix the OEM wheel retainer to the new mount with some gasket maker, if the compressor dimensions allow for clearance at the gate cover. You may also have the option of mounting the spare in typical fashion and then mounting the compressor on top of that with a wingnut for easy removal... maybe.
