No all I have is the bottle. Actually I don't think it needs one.

It does have a small backwards type L bracket at the top hole, I just took mine off today. It wouldnd't be hard to fab one up.

Just a FYI I can't find one of these as NOS. I tried a few months ago to locate one (because I'm crazy and want a brand new one) and no dealer has one in stock. None of the Ford parts houses do either. They are hard to find used as well. If you break one you're pretty much SOL:mullet:.
