I have given this alot of thought and think what I have done will work great.
I have always had a cooker on my sled and could not stand the thought of not having one on this sled. I have read about all the mounting spots and feel what I have done will work best for me.
The best way to have these cookers work is to have as much heat transfer as possible. These need to sit as close to the heat and have as little air gap as possible so I mounted mine directly on the pipe as it dumps into the can. I simply cut a small piece of the heat shield off the pipe and snugged it up against the can. It sits on a little bit of an angle and is a little tight to get cooker in and out but it works. I also put a piece of aluminum flat plat approximatley 1 inch wide by 2.5 inches long between the cooker bracket and the pipe this allows the cooker to sit flat instead of binding it because of the curve of the pipe. I found if you dont do this you will be making periodic repairs and constantly tightening up the clamps.
