New Fire Extinguisher Mount For The 1st gen 4Runner

Time to replace the ancient fire extinguisher in the back of the 4Runner to get it ready to hit the trails again.Show more

The old extinguisher lacked a good mounting bracket, but it was all I could find at the time. This extinguisher should have been replaced long ago.

I used some Loctite 638 retaining compound:

on the threaded end of the release pin. Some feedback on Amazon mentioned this could pull out and mine did. I applied the retaining compound to the threads then clamped the release knob in a vise and screwed the bracket onto that to get it tightened well.

The bracket will hold a larger extinguisher, limited by the band clamps. I went with this size so it would clear my Hi-Lift jack.
