Re: Gas Tank Carpet?

Does it clip on the gas tank? My reproduction clipped to my gas tank. The originals screw into the back of the cab. Trevor

Re: Gas Tank Carpet?

Is there enough carpet on the repops to screw it to the back of the cab?

In other words, the repop carpet that hooks on the gas tank, can it be used with the original gas tank carpet grommets and screws?

Re: Gas Tank Carpet?

I don't know, but I don't think so from my carpet cover. You would have to probably get one special made. Plus the gas tank clips are sewn to the carpet. Trevor

Re: Gas Tank Carpet?

As a side note, my gas tank carpet was bought almost 7-8 years ago, and they may be different now. Trevor

71blksuper4x4 we were in Osage today for some basketball. Funny to find someone that lives within 30 minutes.

Re: Gas Tank Carpet?

Is it indented like in this pic, to make room for the jack and tools?
