WTB - Blazer gas tank U bolt
 
Does anyone have a gas tank u bolt for sale? We have one spring shop in town and they can't make u bolts that wide.
If I have to I will make something work with flat iron and bolts, but would rather have a factory u bolt if possible.

I think you may find it hard to find one it decent shape to reuse. It isn't that hard to fab up one that looks identical to stock.
I bought some 3/8" cold rolled rod, put it in a vise with a little heat on it to put the two 90* bends in it and then cut the 3/8 threads with a die. If you follow to the bottom of this linked thread you can see the final product.
