86 short box gas tank!!
Hi all! new to the forum and am looking forward to being part of the community.
I have a 86 chevy short box with a 305 punched .40 over, holley carb, and a big cam. Nothing special, just a fun play around truck. I've been meaning to get it going and have the new gas tank and straps at home. The problem that I ran into was finding supports, (not straps) for the gas tank. They are the "J" looking supports that hold the weight of the gas tank and bolt to the frame. I can't seem to find these straps anywhere, not from junkyards or a parts store. If anyone could help me out as to where I could obtain them that would be greatley appreicated. I will have pics. of the gas tank install and pics of my truck when I'm done. Thank you everyone. |

Another 86  Check the LMC catalog, if you do not have one type in a search engine "LMC" and go to their site, if I recall correct they have them also.
