I glued my pump several times and it came loose every time, anyone made an easy braket for duals/singles or converted existing brakets, show me your ideas...

Thank you

youre either using the wrong glue or not prepping correctly....

I have used silicone, jbweld, superglue, epoxy resin and once a piece of chewing gum and none have ever failed


sand with some 80 grit, clean with acetone and you should be good to go

What kind of gum? Do you chew it first or heat it with something to soften it first or what?

Mine is currently tie-wraped to the gas tank ancor braket.
But 5200 as worked well in the past for me.

well if you take a deck screw or sheet metal screw and run it into bottom plate of the bilge pump into the bottem of the hull, flip the hull over and cut the screw off flush it will hold just fine!!! LOL
but seriously I used 5200 on my last set of bilges in my old 750sx and held great!!!

that'll work..but something with some flex to it will work better..

best location is back under the coupler cover, but thats better than nothing
