Default Mount for 4lb or 5lb fire extinguisher

I know there have been quite a few threads about fire extinguishers and mounts. However, most of them discuss mounting the smaller 1 or 2.5 lbs units. My work is requiring that all project managers that use their vehicles to travel to job sites to carry 4 or 5 lb ABC fire extinguishers. So I am looking for a good mount and mounting location for a 4 or 5 lb fire extinguisher.

Any ideas or recommendations?

Would something like the power tank bracket work? Other similar products?

Thanks.

Smittybilt or powertank air tank mounts should work for your needs. There's also a variety of rollbar mounting options out there. A search should find you a lot of choices. Check out fourtrek as well.

I don't recall the size but I put this at the left rear of the cargo area. You could probably fit a larger model back there as well.

Can you give some details as to how you have that mounted? Looks like you may have used a bracket that came with it, but not sure how you have attached it. Thanks.
