Abstract
A dozer valve bracket has a first bracket portion to secure with a frame cross member. The first bracket portion includes a fastener receiver to enable passage of a fastener. A second bracket portion is spaced from the fastener receiver and extends substantially transverse to and from the first bracket portion. The second bracket portion has a valve retention member to position the valve at a desired angle on the second bracket portion. A heat shield is coupled with the second bracket portion to protect the valve from heat generated by an exhaust system. A flex line support positions the flex line away from the exhaust system.
