fuel tank pictures

Does anyone have pictures of how the factory fuel tanks were mounted? My Jimmy came with an aftermarket tank and wanting to go back to a factory style set up but not sure what it will take.

I just replaced the original tank on my 71 with a replacement from LMC. The only thing holding mine up were the two metal straps that are held on by the frame.

What keeps them from hitting the tub and bending the fuel pickup and sender etc?

The flange of the tank rests on the underside of the frame rail, then the two straps hold it in place. Classic parts sells the whole kit.
