Default Latham Steering

How are you guys mounting your Latham power steering filters? Also does someone make a mounting bracket for the fluid reservoir to cylinder head? Not my photo but same part number.

I mounted my power steering filter to the power steering cooler and bolted it to the main stringer . I could not find anyone who made a reservoir holder that bolted to the starboard cylinder head so I made my own

All of the boats I have owned with Latham steering have had the filter mounted to the transom. I made my own bracket, angle brackets and spacers by copying the one I had. I put it on my Port motor to do away with the plastic reservoir and purely for looks. There are many here around us that have the Latham setups so it would be easy to copy. I do have a extra bracket that was for a 496 from a donor reservoir you can have. Here's mine with the 2 reservoirs now.
