with help from a welding teacher we added another piece of flat iron and connected the brackets,then he welded everything together.

also thanks to the Maintenance guy at my job he drilled the holes for the bracket and made me a special piece for the front of the box.i used 8 nuts and 6 washers total with alots of silicon dont want any air leaks. heres the finished product.only thing to do left is add connectors to the wire going to the box.

i know it wont stop a thief but it will sure slow him down and my insurance has to cover me now that its bolted down.
