Gas Tank Bracket Pads
I'm getting ready to install my gas tank back inside the cab today, and would like to use the bracket pads I got from GMC Pauls. Any idea where they go? I don't remeber anything like this when I took the tank out.

I don't remember seeing those on any tanks I have removed. If someone reads this that has a 67-72 Factory Assembly Manual, it might show something in there. Sorry I couldn't be more help. LockDoc

Re: Gas Tank Bracket Pads
under the tank and at the lower bottom, there is a raised area where the cab mounts are if I am correct and the pads go there.

Re: Gas Tank Bracket Pads
I remeber taking out a long piece of tar backing when removing the tank, but nothing like what I got. Has no one used what I got from GMC Pauls?

Re: Gas Tank Bracket Pads
I don't remember anything when I removed my tank from behind the seat.

Re: Gas Tank Bracket Pads
I just put the tank back in, and put the pads near where the cab mounts where. After bolting the tank in I noticed that the tank dosn't even touch the floor. I'm not going to take the tank back out, so I guess those pads were a waste. Would still like to know where they are supposed to be used though.

Re: Gas Tank Bracket Pads
Ask and you shall receive.. They go on each side of the cab as shown in the pic.

Re: Gas Tank Bracket Pads
Those are the pads I have, but my truck dosn't have those brackets. Interesting...
