Hello I'm trying to replace a leaky fuel tank I have the correct tank but the straps that are listed for my vehicle are way off, the straps needed look more like brackets and bolts to frame on both sides. Can't find anywhere all parts stores have same listings for part I already have. Please check out pic and any advice would greatly be appreciated
yeah your pic is whats listed for 4 door and this is what I got for 2 door and is listed in multiple stores and websites
but its not even close, doesnt even match the tank it, seems like its for the 18 gallon long flat type, The type on mine now seems more heavy duty, u-shaped with bolt holes on front and back that attach to the frame. How it is in my picture both sides are the same no offset bend. Wondering if its a limited model but may be cross referenced with any other gmc/chevy models around that time.
This picture you have in the post above is the upper straps.
if you look in your original picture, you can see the nuts for the upper straps in the frame channel above the bolts for the lower straps.

If i remember correctly, the lower straps are not adjustable and you are supposed to use the upper straps for adjusting how tight the straps are once the tank is installed.
