    to make the triangular bracket I used some 90 angles.
    one was cut about 1 inch at the base corner to bolt into the rear cross bar (where the rubber bumper are)
    the other 2 parts of the triangle were just cut pieces of common 90 degree angles, cut to fit the mounting holes of the pump
    I used nylon self locking nuts to keep the assembly from vibration loose.

    this snugs the pump body next to the cyl. wall and allows the cover to fit nicely
