Re: Gas tanks on '87 truck
Kevin, I did mine about the same as you did. New tanks, straps ect. Take the new tanks and the straps to someone that does spray in bed liner. Coat the straps and tanks. Plug all the holes first of course. When you install everything cut up old tire tubes and use that as tank insulation where the straps\carriers touch the tanks. You will have to clean off any liner around the sender hole to insure a good seal and a good electrical connection so the pumps and senders work properly. Mine is carb, but still need a good ground. I love that bed liner stuff. The whole bottom of mine is coated with it. jim
