Mock-Up: Gas Tank (October 14, 2012)


Today I mounted the Rick's stainless steel gas tank.  I modified the forward portion of the mounting straps.  I didn't like the way the straps did not hug the front of the tank.  I cut off the loop and added these angles.  I then added studs for these to attach to, which will allow the straps to stay tight against the front of the tank.







The long studs in the back are for mock-up only.  Appropriate length studs will be used for final assembly.  





Here you can see the modified strap mounting.
