Re: compressor mounting

I don't think just tapping the 2x4 steel is a good idea. There isn't much thread there to grab the bolt. You could mock up the compressors and then weld some nuts on the 2x4 so when the compressors mount they sit on the welded nuts. That way you get a good bite. There is tons of other ideas so try and get creative.
